During his college school days he had interest in prehistorical civilizations and archeology studies, and was in a relationship with his senior Aries Turner.〔 However, after being left by her, Roy dropped his studies and became a stunt pilot in the air circus led by Hikaru Ichijyo's father.〔 Some time later he decided to join the U.N. Spacy after most of his friends died in the U.N. Wars.〔 His flight instructor during this time was D.D. Ivanov. During the war Roy became a talented and strong-willed fighter pilot, known for his love of women and alcohol during the war shoot down 180 fighters Focker was selected later as one of the first test pilots for the development of the variable fighters by the U.N. Forces. In 2008 he is deployed as a squadron commader with the Skull Team aboard the stealth carrier CVN-99 ''Asuka II'' on a secret mission in the South Pacific and flies the VF-0 Phoenix in battle against the SV-51s of the Anti-U.N. Forces. The work done on the VF-0 helps the coinciding development of the VF-1 Valkyrie. Despite his long absence during the U.N. Wars and the death of Hikaru's father, Hikaru still remained a close friend to Roy and considered him his sempai (upperclassman/big brother figure).〔 After the end of the U.N. Wars, Focker involved himself in the VF-X development project flying both the VF-X and the VF-X-1 (non-transformable and transformable flight test prototypes of the VF-1 Valkyrie), and his flight experience earned him the command of the VF-1 Skull Squadron aboard the super-large-scale semi-submersible attack aircraft carrier CVS-101 ''Prometheus''.〔 During Space War I Roy Focker is still a smoking, drinking womanizer who constantly defies death and, when not on another desperate mission, enjoys life and its pleasures to the fullest. He has a relationship with Claudia LaSalle, an officer stationed on the SDF-1 Macross bridge.〔Character of Macross: Roy Focker. Page 122. ''Macross Perfect Memory''. Reference Book. 260 A4 pages.
