We have returned every year since, and in that time, we, as a company, have undergone many changes. For example, several of our Naval combat ships have become available for purchase in civilian models, including the Sabre light fighter which we premiered at last year\u2019s Expo.\n\nWe are thrilled to be able to continue this proud tradition at the 2946 IAE and hope you enjoy getting up close with ships like the Reclaimer, as much as we enjoy creating them. In addition, fans are encouraged to stop by the Aegis booth for a chance to meet some of the Navy\u2019s most decorated veteran pilots and hear their experiences flying Aegis ships, as well as their tips for getting the most out of these powerful machines. Look forward to seeing you there!\n\nWhere are they now?\nAegis\u2019 powerful military lineup is coming online rapidly! The Avenger, Gladius, Retaliator, Sabre, Vanguard and Starfarer Gemini are flight ready as of Star Citizen Alpha 2.5. The Redeemer is hangar ready, but will require a significant update to take flight. The Reclaimer and additional Retaliator and Vanguard modules are also in production. Concept artists are working on a top secret Aegis design to launch next year.\n\nAegis Intro Pack\nFor those looking to expand their combat options, this introductory collection of ships from Aegis Dynamics is a great place to start.\n\nAegis Mega Pack\nOne of the most prolific ship manufacturers in the Empire, Aegis Dynamics has put together this expansive curated collection of some of their most notable vehicles.\n\nANVIL HORNET WILDFIRE VARIANT\nCreated as part of the \u2018Masters of Flight\u2019 series in conjunction with the flight-sim Arena Commander, the Wildfire pays tribute to famed pilot Aria Reilly for her distinguished service with the legendary Squadron 42. This Hornet comes equipped with her own personally selected loadout preferences and a custom special edition livery honoring her iconic ship.\n\nMeet the Pilot\nOutside of Cal Mason and Selon McClintock, no other pilot is as synonymous with Squadron 42 than Aria Reilly. Interestingly, Reilly was one of the few who not only served as a combat pilot in the renowned squadron for eight years, but as their commanding officer when she was promoted to captain the carrier, UEES Caspian.\n\nDuring Aria\u2019s early tours as a combat pilot, she obsessively tested all of the ships that she was assigned, meticulously testing various loadouts and configurations to push the limits of the ship. For one reason or another, all the ships would ultimately fail her rigorous series of tests\u2026 until she tackled the Anvil Hornet. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a scenario or loadout that I could put [the Hornet] through that it couldn\u2019t find its way out of. Like the damn ship was doomed to succeed,\u201d she recalled in an interview. Needless to say, Aria Reilly\u2019s Wildfire Hornet became her mainstay ship and her default configuration (swapping energy cannons for ballistic repeaters and varying up her missile systems) became her \u2018all-purpose loadout,\u2019 capable of handling whatever situation met her in the field.\n\nCapital Ships\nAs announced during the anniversary livestream, a limited number of Idris-P and Javelin class capital ships will be available over the weekend. UEE War Bond editions will be available in four allotments to allow Citizens around the world an opportunity. Each allotment will include 200 Idris-P frigates and 50 Javelin destroyers. War Bond times are 3pm Pacific on Friday, 9pm Pacific on Friday, 3am Pacific on Saturday and 9am Pacific on Sunday. A final allotment which may be purchased with store credit will be available at 9am Pacific on Sunday.\n\nSALE SCHEDULE\nDay Eight \u2013 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25th \u2013 AEGIS DYNAMICS & HORNET WILDFIRE\nDay Nine \u2013 SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26TH \u2013 GRAND FINALE\nTHE ESPERIA PROWLER\nStraight from annals of history comes one of the most legendary ships of the First Tevarin War, beautifully and meticulously recreated by the dedicated craftsman and astroengineers at Esperia. Designated \u201cProwler\u201d by the UPE Navy pilots who first encountered it in battle, this Tevarin armored personnel carrier developed a fearsome reputation for infiltrating enemy stations and ships and delivering teams of Naulle, elite Tevarin boarders, to wreak havoc on unsuspecting Humans.\n\nNow, centuries later, Esperia is making this unique ship once again available to collectors and military enthusiasts alike, preserving the feel and design of the Tevarin original while updating it to modern standards of efficiency and safety. And like all of Esperia\u2019s ships, these are more than mere showpieces, these works of art were made to fly.\n\nBehind Enemy Lines\nThere is a reason that the Prowler made its mark on history. At the time, the ship was one of the most advanced and cutting edge pieces of combat technology to grace a battlefield, and Esperia\u2019s Prowler continues that tradition today. An ideal vessel for infiltration, boarding, troop deployment, extraction, fleet security and stealth missions, the Prowler\u2019s distinctive hull can not only hold 16 persons, but it can rapidly deploy them thanks to its series of airshield portals. While common today, airshields were first developed by the Tevarin and changed the face of war thanks to the ease in which their troops could move in and out of the Prowler.\n\nOverall, the Tevarin\u2019s expertise in shields far outpaced Humanities own as exemplified by the Phalanx Shield that comes standard with the Prowler. A point defense shield that provides a very strong but limited protective face, the Phalanx Shield was one of the reasons that the Prowler became such a significant defensive force when flown in a squad with shields deployed and its wide variety of defensive countermeasures at the ready.\n\nIn addition, the Prowler\u2019s Grav-Lev plates give additional flight control when traversing along uneven surfaces. This comes quite in handy when trying to position the Prowler alongside a large capital ship or inside a planetary fortification. As does the remote turret positioned along the upper spine for full 360 offense.\n\nFrom silently infiltrating an unsuspecting enemy hangar to charging in to get forces where they\u2019re most needed, the Esperia Prowler is a piece of history ready to make a whole bunch more.\n\nVisit the Prowler\n\n\nAbout the Sale\nThe Prowler is being offered for the first time as a limited concept sale. This means that the ship design meets our specifications, but it is not yet ready to display in your Hangar, fight in Arena Commander or fly in the Alpha. The sale includes Lifetime Insurance on the ship hull and a pair of decorative items for your Hangar. A future patch will add a Prowler poster and then once the in-game model is finished you will also be given an in-game Prowler mini ship model! In the future, the ship price will increase and the offer will not include Life Time Insurance or these extras.\n\n\n\nMerchandise Sale\nDisclaimer\nRemember: we are offering this pledge ship to help fund Star Citizen\u2019s development. The funding generated by sales such as this is what allows us to include deeper, non-combat oriented features in the Star Citizen world. Concept ships will be available for in-game credits in the final universe, and they are not required to start the game.\n\nAdditionally, please note that the Prowler will be entering the ship pipeline now, it will ultimately be released after other concept ships have been completed. All decorative \u2018flare\u2019 items will also be available to acquire in the finished game world. The goal is to make additional ships available that give players a different experience rather than a particular advantage when the persistent universe launches.","de_DE":"Ein Wort von Aegis Dynamics.....\nAls Aegis Dynamics 2787 an der ersten Intergalactic Aerospace Expo teilnahm, nutzten wir diese Gelegenheit, um der \u00d6ffentlichkeit die M\u00f6glichkeit zu geben, viele unserer Schiffe zu sehen, die f\u00fcr milit\u00e4rische Zwecke reserviert waren. Seitdem sind wir jedes Jahr zur\u00fcckgekehrt, und in dieser Zeit haben wir als Unternehmen viele Ver\u00e4nderungen erfahren. So sind beispielsweise mehrere unserer Marine-Kampfschiffe f\u00fcr den Kauf in zivilen Modellen erh\u00e4ltlich, darunter das Leichtflugzeug Sabre, das wir im vergangenen Jahr auf der Expo erstmals vorgestellt haben.\n\nWir freuen uns sehr, diese stolze Tradition auf der 2946 IAE fortsetzen zu k\u00f6nnen und w\u00fcnschen Ihnen viel Spa\u00df dabei, Schiffe wie den Reclaimer hautnah zu erleben, so wie wir sie gerne bauen. Dar\u00fcber hinaus werden die Fans ermutigt, am Aegis-Stand vorbeizuschauen, um einige der besten Veteranenpiloten der Marine zu treffen und ihre Erfahrungen mit Aegis-Schiffen sowie ihre Tipps zur optimalen Nutzung dieser leistungsstarken Maschinen zu h\u00f6ren. Ich freue mich darauf, dich dort zu sehen!\n\nWo sind sie jetzt?\nAegis' starke milit\u00e4rische Aufstellung kommt schnell online! Der R\u00e4cher, Gladius, Vergelter, S\u00e4bel, Vorhut und Starfarer Zwillinge sind ab Star Citizen Alpha 2.5 flugbereit. Der Erl\u00f6ser ist bereit f\u00fcr den Hangar, wird aber ein umfangreiches Update ben\u00f6tigen, um den Flug aufzunehmen. Der R\u00fccklader und weitere Vergeltungs- und Vanguard-Module sind ebenfalls in Produktion. Konzeptk\u00fcnstler arbeiten an einem streng geheimen Aegis-Design, das im n\u00e4chsten Jahr auf den Markt kommen soll.\n\nAegis Intro-Paket\nF\u00fcr diejenigen, die ihre Kampfm\u00f6glichkeiten erweitern m\u00f6chten, ist diese einf\u00fchrende Sammlung von Schiffen von Aegis Dynamics ein gro\u00dfartiger Ausgangspunkt.\n\nAegis Mega Packung\nAegis Dynamics, einer der produktivsten Schiffshersteller des Imperiums, hat diese umfangreiche, kuratierte Sammlung einiger seiner bemerkenswertesten Fahrzeuge zusammengestellt.\n\nAMBOSS HORNISSE WILDFIRE VARIANTE\nDas Wildfire wurde im Rahmen der Masters of Flight\"-Serie in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Flugsimulator Arena Commander entwickelt und w\u00fcrdigt die ber\u00fchmte Pilotin Aria Reilly f\u00fcr ihren herausragenden Einsatz mit der legend\u00e4ren Staffel 42. Diese Hornet ist mit ihren eigenen, pers\u00f6nlich ausgew\u00e4hlten Ladevorlieben und einer individuellen Sonderlackierung ausgestattet, die ihr ikonisches Schiff ehrt.\n\nLernen Sie den Piloten kennen\nAu\u00dfer Cal Mason und Selon McClintock ist kein anderer Pilot so gleichbedeutend mit Squadron 42 wie Aria Reilly. Interessanterweise war Reilly eine der wenigen, die nicht nur acht Jahre lang als Kampfpilotin in der ber\u00fchmten Staffel diente, sondern auch als ihre befehlende Offizierin, als sie zum Kapit\u00e4n der Fluggesellschaft UEES Caspian bef\u00f6rdert wurde.\n\nW\u00e4hrend Aria's fr\u00fchen Touren als Kampfpilotin testete sie besessen alle ihr zugewiesenen Schiffe und testete sorgf\u00e4ltig verschiedene Ladungen und Konfigurationen, um die Grenzen des Schiffes zu erweitern. Aus dem einen oder anderen Grund w\u00fcrden alle Schiffe schlie\u00dflich ihre strengen Testreihen nicht bestehen.... bis sie die Amboss Hornet in Angriff nahm. \"Es gab kein Szenario oder keine Auslastung, die ich[die Hornisse] durchmachen konnte, aus der sie nicht herausfinden konnte. Als ob das verdammte Schiff zum Erfolg verurteilt w\u00e4re\", erinnerte sie sich in einem Interview. Unn\u00f6tig zu sagen, dass Aria Reilly's Wildfire Hornet ihr Hauptschiff wurde und ihre Standardkonfiguration (Austausch von Energiekanonen gegen ballistische Repeater und Variation ihrer Raketensysteme) zu ihrer \"universellen Auslastung\" wurde, die in der Lage war, jede Situation zu bew\u00e4ltigen, die sie im Feld traf.\n\nKapitalschiffe\nWie w\u00e4hrend des Jubil\u00e4ums-Livestreams angek\u00fcndigt, wird am Wochenende eine begrenzte Anzahl von Gro\u00dfschiffen der Idris-P- und Javelin-Klasse verf\u00fcgbar sein. Die UEE War Bond Editionen werden in vier Schreberg\u00e4rten erh\u00e4ltlich sein, um B\u00fcrgern auf der ganzen Welt eine Chance zu geben. Jede Zuteilung umfasst 200 Idris-P-Fregatten und 50 Speerwurfvernichter. Die Zeiten der Kriegsanleihen sind Freitag um 15 Uhr Pazifik, Freitag um 21 Uhr Pazifik, Samstag um 3 Uhr Pazifik und Sonntag um 9 Uhr Pazifik. Ein endg\u00fcltiges Kontingent, das mit Shop-Guthaben gekauft werden kann, wird am Sonntag um 9 Uhr morgens im Pazifikraum verf\u00fcgbar sein.\n\nVERKAUFSZEITPLAN\nAchter Tag - FREITAG, 25. November - AEGIS DYNAMICS & HORNET WILDFIRE\nTag neun - SAMSTAG, 26. November - GRAND FINALE\nDER ESPERIA PROWLER\nDirekt aus der Geschichte kommt eines der legend\u00e4rsten Schiffe des Ersten Tevarin-Krieges, das von den engagierten Handwerkern und Astro-Ingenieuren in Esperia wundersch\u00f6n und akribisch nachgebaut wurde. Dieser gepanzerte Tevarin-Personaltransporter, der von den Piloten der UPE-Marine, die ihm zum ersten Mal im Kampf begegneten, als \"Prowler\" bezeichnet wurde, entwickelte einen furchterregenden Ruf daf\u00fcr, feindliche Stationen und Schiffe zu infiltrieren und Teams von Naulle, der Elite der Tevarin-Grenze, zu liefern, um verheerende Auswirkungen auf ahnungslose Menschen zu haben.\n\nJetzt, Jahrhunderte sp\u00e4ter, stellt Esperia dieses einzigartige Schiff Sammlern und Milit\u00e4rliebhabern gleicherma\u00dfen wieder zur Verf\u00fcgung, bewahrt die Haptik und das Design des Tevarin-Originals und aktualisiert es auf den neuesten Stand von Effizienz und Sicherheit. Und wie alle Schiffe von Esperia sind auch diese mehr als nur Schaust\u00fccke, diese Kunstwerke wurden zum Fliegen gebracht.\n\nHinter feindlichen Linien\nEs gibt einen Grund, warum der Prowler seine Spuren in der Geschichte hinterlassen hat. Damals war das Schiff eines der fortschrittlichsten und innovativsten Kampfeins\u00e4tze, um ein Schlachtfeld zu schm\u00fccken, und der Prowler von Esperia setzt diese Tradition heute fort. Als ideales Schiff f\u00fcr Infiltration, Boarding, Truppeneinsatz, Extraktion, Flottensicherheit und Tarnmissionen bietet der unverwechselbare Rumpf des Prowlers nicht nur Platz f\u00fcr 16 Personen, sondern kann sie dank seiner Reihe von Luftschildportalen auch schnell einsetzen. W\u00e4hrend sie heute \u00fcblich sind, wurden die Luftschilde zuerst von den Tevarin entwickelt und ver\u00e4nderten das Gesicht des Krieges dank der Leichtigkeit, mit der sich ihre Truppen in den Prowler und aus ihm heraus bewegen konnten.\n\nInsgesamt \u00fcbertrifft die Expertise des Tevarin in Schilden die der Geisteswissenschaften bei weitem, wie das Phalanx-Schild zeigt, das standardm\u00e4\u00dfig mit dem Prowler geliefert wird. Als Punktverteidigungsschild, der ein sehr starkes, aber begrenztes Schutzgesicht bietet, war das Phalanx-Schild einer der Gr\u00fcnde, warum der Prowler zu einer so bedeutenden Verteidigungskraft wurde, wenn er in einem Trupp mit eingesetzten Schilden und seiner gro\u00dfen Vielfalt an defensiven Gegenma\u00dfnahmen in Bereitschaft geflogen wurde.\n\nDar\u00fcber hinaus bieten die Grav-Lev-Platten des Prowlers zus\u00e4tzliche Flugkontrolle beim Durchfahren unebener Oberfl\u00e4chen. Dies ist sehr n\u00fctzlich, wenn man versucht, den Prowler neben einem gro\u00dfen Kapit\u00e4nsschiff oder in einer planetarischen Befestigung zu positionieren. Ebenso wie der ferngesteuerte Turm, der entlang der oberen Wirbels\u00e4ule positioniert ist, um eine volle 360er Offensive zu erm\u00f6glichen.\n\nVom stillen Eindringen in einen ahnungslosen feindlichen Hangar bis hin zum Angriff auf die Streitkr\u00e4fte, wo sie am meisten gebraucht werden, ist der Esperia Prowler ein St\u00fcck Geschichte, das bereit ist, einen ganzen Haufen mehr zu machen.\n\nBesuchen Sie den Prowler\n\n\n\u00dcber den Verkauf\nDer Prowler wird erstmals als limitierter Konzeptverkauf angeboten. Das bedeutet, dass das Schiffsdesign unseren Spezifikationen entspricht, aber es ist noch nicht bereit, in Ihrem Hangar ausgestellt zu werden, im Arena Commander zu k\u00e4mpfen oder im Alpha zu fliegen. Der Verkauf beinhaltet eine Lebensversicherung auf dem Schiffsrumpf und ein Paar dekorative Gegenst\u00e4nde f\u00fcr Ihren Hangar. Ein zuk\u00fcnftiger Patch wird ein Prowler-Poster hinzuf\u00fcgen und dann, wenn das In-Game-Modell fertig ist, erhalten Sie auch ein In-Game-Prowler-Mini-Schiffsmodell! In Zukunft wird der Schiffspreis steigen und das Angebot wird keine Lebensversicherung oder diese Extras beinhalten.\n\n\n\nWarenverkauf\nHaftungsausschluss\nDenken Sie daran: Wir bieten dieses Pfandboot an, um die Entwicklung von Star Citizen zu unterst\u00fctzen. Die durch einen solchen Verkauf generierte Finanzierung erm\u00f6glicht es uns, tiefere, nicht kampforientierte Merkmale in die Welt von Star Citizen einzubeziehen. Konzeptschiffe werden f\u00fcr In-Game-Credits im finalen Universum zur Verf\u00fcgung stehen, und sie sind nicht verpflichtet, das Spiel zu starten.\n\nBitte beachten Sie au\u00dferdem, dass der Prowler jetzt in die Schiffspipeline einsteigen wird, er wird letztendlich freigegeben, nachdem andere Konzeptschiffe fertig gestellt wurden. Alle dekorativen \"Flare\"-Elemente werden auch in der fertigen Spielwelt erh\u00e4ltlich sein. Ziel ist es, zus\u00e4tzliche Schiffe zur Verf\u00fcgung zu stellen, die den Spielern beim Start des persistenten Universums eine andere Erfahrung und keinen besonderen Vorteil bieten.","zh_CN":"A Word from Aegis Dynamics\u2026\nWhen Aegis Dynamics attended its first Intergalactic Aerospace Expo in 2787, we used it as an opportunity to give the public a chance to see many of our ships that were reserved for military use.
