AFAIK, no official Robotech source has ever offered any comments on the size of the factory satellite in the "original 85"... or any of the other alleged factory satellites in the official setting.

The safest assumption, considering Harmony Gold's sourcing practices, is that it's likely the same size it was in Macross.

Well, they re-vamped one of them in to Space Station Liberty.
Liberty is big enough to house the construction yards for Fleet building and storage for many-many ships....
They house a bunch of Neutron-S Missiles in the thing... Them babies are like 2-3KM each... plus what-ever size they used for that Arc-reactor ship.
It reads like they have found at least 3 of the things...
various non-canon sources put the thing about 150ish KM around and maybe 70km tall...
