About
The Araxes Federation is a small government located on the fringes of known space. They have colonised a small asteroid belt and currently carry out mining operations and construction enterprises. The Federation comprises of two main bodies.
Tethran Collective Military
The Tethran Collective Military is the Araxes Federation's paramilitary organisation. They field small groups of heavily-armed and armoured ships in forces known as "Spadas". The TCM's main goal is protection of the Federation's assets, as well as peacekeeping duties.
Aquila Defense Systems
The Aquila Defense Systems are a conglomeration of small companies under the Federation. Their main roles comprise construction, trade, mining and engineering. ADS produce ships and weaponry for use by the TCM and do not field combat ships.
Current Military Arsenal
Strikecraft
SF-731 "Vampire"
The Vampire is a fast and light interceptor designed for short range interdiction missions. It carries a very small amount of fuel and is lightly armoured.
Armament: "Cobra" XVD-3 Gatling Gun x2
IF-232 "Panther"
The Panther is a heavy fighter designed for long-range escort and patrol missions. Whilst better armed and armoured than its smaller cousin, it is both slower and larger.

AF-200 "Breaker"
The Breaker is a long-range fighter-bomber designed for fast assault and escort duties. Whilst it is heavier and slower than both the Panther and the Vampire, it is well-armoured and boasts several rocket pods.

B-57 "Crusher"
The Crusher is the latest design from Aquila and is a short-range heavy bomber. Designed to scare off any potential threats to its parent carrier, it fields an impressive array of rocket pods at the expense of speed and mobility. The B-57 is the heaviest strikecraft currently fielded by the TCM. It is almost useless when dogfighting as it holds only a single gun.
