Intergalactic Aerospace Expo

Since the late 28th century, the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo has been the place for pilots, ship enthusiasts, and manufacturers to gather and celebrate the thing they love most – flying. The 2946 IAE is no exception. With universal premieres of brand ships like the Prowler, limited edition variants, and hard to find favorites on full display, this year’s Expo not only offers a lot to see, but arguably the widest selection for those looking to purchase a brand new ship of their own.

The expo takes place over nine days, with new sales, commentary, and possibly new ships. Each day focuses on one particular ship manufacturer or group of manufacturers.

Day One – The Prowler
Day one of the IAE saw the announcement of the brand new Esperia Prowler concept ship for sale to the public.

Additionally, ships that are planned for release in Star Citizen Alpha 2.6.0 went up for sale, including the Herald information runner and the Caterpillar transport

Day Two – RSI & Gladius Valiant
Day two of the IAE featured Roberts Space Industries (RSI) and its wide selection of versatile, robust starships.

On this day, it was announced that the the Constellation Aquila will be released in the Star Citizen Alpha 3.0.0 and the other Constellation ships (The Phoenix and the Taurus) will be flight ready in the upcoming months.

Finally, the RSI Gladius Valiant was announced as part of the Masters of Flight ship series, boasting a powerful dogfighting loadout and custom livery.

Day Three – Drake Interplanetary
Drake Interplanetary headed day three of the IAE, bringing their selection of rough, tough, and morally questionable ships to the floor.

Day Four – MISC & Sabre Comet
The IAE's day four focused on MISC, showing off its variety of ships; from the utilitarian Hull series of cargo ships to the xeno-like Reliant

Additionally, a new MISC concept ship was hinted at, supposedly being designed as a racer ship to win the 2947 Murray Cup

Lastly, the Sabre Comet went up on sale, showing off a dogfighting loadout and paint job as part of the Masters of Flight ship series.

Day Five – Anvil Aerospace
Anvil Aerospace's floor space emphasised its military history and contracts with the UEE; but also showed off some of its newer civilian ships for exploration and scanning. Whether buyers were looking for a Hornet to protect themselves or a Terrapin to explore the galaxy, Anvil planned to provide them exactly what they were looking for.
