The "Red Bioroid" was a rare sight in the armies of the Robotech Masters. Superior in speed and armor to the other Type 1 and 2 Bioroids (Blue and Green, respectively), this mecha was usually reserved for senior commanders, for their supervisory capacity over other Bioroids in the field. The most noteworthy pilot of this mecha was Zor Prime, a clone of the original Robotech Master, who was allowed to be captured by Earth forces, and whose actions directly led to the end of the Second Robotech War.
The Bioroid is unarmed and incapable of flight, and makes up for these deficiencies with one of two types of gun pod and the Bioroid Hoversled. The Red Bioroid is usually equipped with the "Disk" gun pod, so named because it is shaped like an upright disk.
