VF/B-9X Shadow Beta

"Yeah. Well it helps when you got a Beta full of missiles."

―Marcus Rush to Alex Romero^[src]

The Shadow Beta, or VF/B-9X, was an upgraded version of the VFB-9 Beta, introduced late in the Third Robotech War. They could dock with the contemporary VFA-6X Shadow Fighter, VF/A-6ZX, and VQ-6X Shadow Drones. In addition the craft used shadow devices and it's Super Shadow counterpart could be equipped with Synchro Cannons. The Later developed Super Shadow Fighters were based on the Shadow Beta.
