The VF-25 doesn't actually have parts detaching and reattaching, if you look closely at the transformation. You're probably thinking of the VF-25's nose section, but it just has multiple pivot points to rotate the nose tip to the center of the torso. It's like what the VF-11 from Macross Plus had, only one step further with more pivot points.

Everything is still connected by a joint, so it's not like a few Gundam designs where a part flies off and conveniently reattaches to another section.
