Yes, and I believe that the last phrase was sang by Iijima Mari herself (either taken from an old vocal track, or as a new recording).

Unlike Gundams which makes you scratch your head thinking why it is needed, Macross mecha (the variable fighter namely) makes perfect sense from their history.

I'm not sure that I'd go that far. Variable fighters are less plausible than their Gundam counterparts since they tend to be both more complex and more advanced (in general). However, they truly are treated like plain war machines in a way that's rather unusual to most mecha anime. And in fact, they could have been replaced by regular fighters without changing a whole lot in terms of the story.
