Propulsion: 2 x 1,955 kN (maximum thrust in space); many x P&W HMM-10A High maneuverability verniers
Thrust-to-weight ratio: (empty) 40.75
Performance:
Fighter Mode: at 10,000 m Mach 5.8+, maximum speed due to heat-resistance limit of the fuselage

- Armament -
Guns:
2 x Remmington LM-27C 27mm machine gun rail gun (mini gunpod) (mounted rear of cockpit in Fighter mode, upon lower right arm in GERWALK/Battroid modes)
1 x General Galaxy GBP-35A beam gunpod (mounted semi-recessed in ventral center in Fighter mode, moves to dorsal side as turret pod for GERWALK mode)
1 x anti-projectile shield (shield folds in half to become single dorsal tail fin in Fighter mode)
1 x General Galaxy VPB-211R pin-point barrier system
Bombs & Missiles:
none
Optional Armament:
2 x LD-262S "Lil Draken" aerospace drones
- fuselage composed of energy converting armor, but the drone's small energy capacitor cannot sustain regular operation except when docked with Sv-262 Draken III
- option of replacing beam cannon with wide-area fold wave jamming device
- docked upon left/right main wings of SV-262 Draken III in Fighter mode (Sv-262 Draken III main wings fold vertically to accommodate), mounted rear torso in Battroid mode
- docked LD-262 drones prevent the Sv-262 Draken III from landing in Fighter mode due to insufficient clearance; GERWALK mode utilized as landing configuration
- Armament: 1 x 30mm beam cannon; 4 x micro-missile launchers
|
4 x Bifors AIMM-4A micro-missile pods (mounted upon the dorsal and ventral engine/leg sections)

During the Second Windermere War of Independence waged in 2067, Δ (Delta) Squadron Valkyrie pilots Mirage Fallyna Jenius and Hayate Immelmann were able to stow away onboard a Windermerean military space ship in the aftermath of a dire battle in which "Tactical Musical Unit 'Walküre'" were taken captive. While onboard the enemy vessel Mirage and Hayate devised a plan to escape by piloting Messer's VF-31F Siegfried valkyrie, taken by Windermerean forces after his fatal final mission. Hayate piloted the VF-31F Siegfried while Mirage commandeered a Sv-262Ba Draken III variable fighter for herself. Mirage changed the transponder code of her appropriated Draken valkyrie and utilized the optical stealth system to alter the paint color and exterior markings to that of a Chaos (χάος) allied craft. Mirage then fought a daring battle against Windermere forces in which she also gallantly engaged Aerial Knight Bogue Con-Vaart in a mighty duel. Mirage and Hayate then rescued Walküre and particpated in a daring battle to defeat the Windermere elite Roid Brehm.
Note: The design inspiration for the Sv-262 is the Saab 35 Draken. Shoji Kawamori noted this is the first time that a Valkyrie with this unique delta wing design has appeared in Macross. Tenjin Hidetaka noted that the cockpit is not transparent.
