Gall Force: Earth Chapter (GALL FORCE 地球章 Chikyū Shō) is a 1989 OAV series produced by Artmic and AIC, part of the Gall Force series. Two English dubs were made, one in 1996 by Manga Entertainment (as New Gall Force) and another in 2003 by U.S. Manga Corps.

Synopsis The year 2085 and the only winners of the last war were the machines. Years previously the human race discovered the ruins of an ancient ship beneath the moon's surface and used the knowledge gained to create weapons of war. Eventually these weapons turned against mankind, seeing them as a threat and deciding the only way to stop these war loving humans was to destroy them. Heavily influenced by the 1988 Terminator movie, this new series focuses upon Sandy Newman as she leads a band of warriors in an attempt to reclaim the earth from the machines. If they can reach a group of unlaunched nuclear missiles, they can take out the machine's headquarters located in Australia.
