Grafted? Sorta... the SDF (or Macross, depends on where you're from : )
was
suppost to 'dock' with space cruisers of the A.R.M.D. class (or Armor in
the
U.S.). Since none of those ships were around, the Macross hooked up with
what it
could (the two sub/carriers).

The movie (Remember Love ?) kinda twisted things around in the story, so
there
you get to see the Macross hooked up with the A.R.M.D. carriers (and you
see them
again in Macross II).
