Here is a size comparison for different scifi spaceships.
Does anyone know if there’s a grander version of this? More ships or stations?

SDF-1 is a good deal smaller than I expected. I thought I remembered it being closer in size to the Zentradi ships in the show.
I’m eight episodes into a rewatch and Breetai recently commented that the SDF-1 was a moderate sized ship but it has a very powerful main gun.
Its size in the show fluctuates. The city of Macross (including the large arena for the Miss Macross pageant) fitting in one leg doesn’t really fit with the size of the SDF-1 while it was on the actual island in episode 1, being only a few city blocks.
The Zentraedi ships also fluctuate in size. The SDF-1 is only considered a medium sized vessel, and some Zentraedi vessels are shown to be larger. Consider also the size of Zentraedi on board the SDF-1 compared to the size of humans on board the Zentraedi vessels. Essentially, they are as big or small as the plot dictated at that moment.
Than also consider that the SDF-1 was massively upsized from its tv show size in Macross: Do You Remember Love?.
Barely. I watched it before school every day during its original airing. Suspension of disbelief works really well on primary school aged kids. I haven’t seen it since. Guess I need to go sail the seven seas and find a copy.
