Armored Fleet Dairugger XV was an anime series aired in Japan from 1982 to 1983. It is also referred to as Dairugger 15, Dairugger XV, Armored Armada Dairugger XV, Armored Squadron Dairugger XV, or Machine Platoon Dairugger. In the United States, it was heavily edited to become part of the Voltron series. The Dairugger footage was the primary source for the "Vehicle Voltron" episodes, though various footage was also inserted into the more commonly known "Lion Voltron" episodes.
In A.D. 2200, the Galaxy Garrison sends the expeditionary ship Rugger Guard to find new planets for future colonization. But when the Galveston Empire threatens the crew of the Rugger Guard with war, the 15 members of the Rugger Team sortie to form the mighty robot Dairugger to defend their ship and ensure the future of humanity.
“Once, people staked their youth on the seas. On the Seven Seas, the flames of romanticism, ambition, adventure, and aspiration burned and clashed. Now, young people of the year AD 2200 challenge the sea of stars. What awaits them there is a world beyond our imagination.”
