The Earth Reclamation Mission.

The Earth Reclamation Force was a branch of the Robotech Expeditionary Force that was formed after the Invid had conquered the planet Earth.

History[]

When the Robotech Expeditionary Fleet, who had become stranded in the Local Group of Fantoma, became aware that an Invid faction led by the Regess had invaded and conquered Earth in 2031 following the end the Second Robotech War, its leadership decided to send a part of the fleet built on the Local Group back to Earth to reclaim it. After a few years of travel, the first Earth Reclamation fleet arrived on the solar system and connected with the remnants of the RDF and the Army of the Southern Cross in Space Station Liberty. The ERF would go on to build bases and outposts on Jupiter, Venus and Mars where pilots would be trained and new technologies tested.

The ERF would turn Moon Base ALUCE into their forward outpost for the reclamation of Earth.

In 2038, the ERF would launch its first campaign against the Invid. The first Reclamation force was composed almost exclusively of non-transformable starfighters and frigates, likely due to a low number of Alpha Fighter veritechs at the time. However, it would fail catastrophically with nearly the entire 10th Mars Division destroyed in Earth's orbit. Two known survivors of the 10th Mars Division were Lance Belmont and Wolf Leader Jonathan Wolfe.

The Second Reclamation fleet would be arrive in 2042. Unlike the first fleet, the second fleet was notably more prepared with more advanced starships and upgraded Alpha Fighters with a battleplan that focused on defeating the first two defensive waves of Invid fighters before attempting atmospheric entry into Earth. Unfortunately, a combination of impatience from the Division's commander, who wanted to begin atmosferic entry as soon as possible, and the unexpected arrival of two more waves of Invid fighters (one targeting the frigates and transport ships attempting entry into Earth and the other focusing on destroying the battleships) ended up destroying most of the Division, with only Lt. Commander Scott Bernard actually making it to Earth, who would go on to form the Robotech Rebels.

The destruction of the Second Reclamation fleet was a crippling blow to the ERF, who would not try another attempt to reclaim Earth until the arrival of the SDF-3 and the rest of the Expeditionary fleet. However, small teams of ERF fighters would be send to Earth to test new technologies against the Invid and for intelligence gathering. One of those teams was from the Jupiter Division which included Sue Graham, whose team was testing Shadow Technology against Invid sensors before they were wipeout by constant Invid attacks.
