SIGLE IMPOSSIBILI - DORVACK (特装機兵ドルバック) - Anime 1983

Authors: Wally Rainbow (texts and prompts). 36 Episodes Based on an idea by Takeshi Shudō 1999. The story begins when the Iderians face an inevitable catastrophe: their world is destined for destruction. To ensure the survival of the species, Commander Zeller leads a gigantic fleet in search of a new planet to colonize. They choose Earth, deemed perfect for the Iderian people. The arrival of the aliens, who build a base on Mont Blanc, catches humanity unprepared. Earth's armed forces suffer heavy losses, and it becomes clear that conventional technology is not enough to stop the invasion. For this reason, Dorvack is established, a special unit equipped with combat vehicles capable of activating a robotic configuration depending on the tactical situation. The protagonists are three young members of the defense corps: Masato Mugen (an impulsive but generous pilot), Pierre Bonaparte (a disciplined and courageous soldier), and Elisa Oberon (an intelligent and determined officer). Each pilots a different transformable vehicle and, mission after mission, develops a strong bond of friendship and mutual trust. The war against the Iderians is fought on multiple fronts: in Earth's cities, in the mountains, across the oceans, and even in space. The protagonists must face constant attacks, enemy infiltration, and increasingly risky operations. Over the course of the series, the conflict's contradictions emerge: the Iderians are invaders, but at the same time they are a desperate people seeking a new homeland after losing their world (and, moreover, they share common ancestry with the Earthlings). This ambiguity gives greater depth to the conflicts and the characters. Through spectacular battles, sacrifices, losses, and acts of heroism, the Dorvack team becomes the symbol of human resistance. The series blends mecha action and war drama, depicting not only the fight to save Earth but also the confrontation between two civilizations fighting for the right to survive. The result is an adventurous and melancholic tale, typically 1980s, in which the fate of humanity depends on the courage of a few young pilots.
