If the VF25/VF27 makes the list (VF being Veritech Fighter in the Macross/Robotech genre), then the SDF-1 needs to be in the #3 position on this list. It is piloted by sentient humans and/or humanoids. It can assume a traditional (2-legged semi-humanoid form 🃏that is a potent weapons platform) "mech" form. Main-cannon attacks could destroy a space armada.

It's as if this is a list of "most powerful fighter planes" and included the Sopwith Camel but excluded the F-15 Eagle... a pretty glaring omission from a writer who I would be willing to bet did not race home from school to watch Robotech (because the🦩y were not born yet) when Harmony Gold brought Anime and "mechs" out of Japan and shared it with the wꦦestern world. How did the Super Dimensional Fortress (10,000 times the size and power of any VF) not make the list?
