Template:CenteredHeadersVela Aerospace travel is a facet of daily life in every corner of Kachiro. Over the thousands of years, corporations and space agencies have designed a myriad air- and spaceships, gradually necessitating the development of standardized categorization systems. In the present day, the following systems are widely recognized by the constellation's superpowers.

Triton Model

The Triton model divides ships into overarching categories based travel capabilities in air and space.

Aerial

Airplanes

Hovercopters

Orbital

Shuttles

Shuttles are ships that are largely used in surface-to-orbit and interplanetary travel, necessitating less speedy Seraph drives in order to sustain stable continuum distortions. They use natural rifts in order to traverse the stars, by . That damages

and are capable of limited interstellar travel. Lacking the construction necessary to , they use limited surface-to-orbit and interplanetary travel

Starcruisers

Starcruisers are capable of both surface-to-orbit travel and interstellar flight, a versatile middle ground between the interplanetary shuttles and orbital voidships. Consequently, they are the prevailing class in the constellation, frequently observed in the hands of navies, businesses, and civilians. The reality breaches in riftspace have to be actively evaded, and any contact results in temporary to the ship's electrical grid. Starcruisers are usually able to cross a single galactic region before having to recharge.

Voidships

Voidships are a category of vessels that are too massive to descend on any celestial bodies, relying on shuttles to conduct planetary business. Their specialized construction is easily able to tolerate endless Seraph distortions, negate any breaches in riftspace, and easily cross intergalactic routes. Starcruisers are the backbone of the intergalactic society and single-handedly uphold the infrastructure in nearly every region of the constellation.

Spaceplanes

Imperial System

The Imperial system is designed to divide the roles of military vessels by their weaponry and flight characteristics.
