Intergalactic Aerospace Compendium

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: divides ships into overarching categories based travel capabilities in air and space.
- Imperial system: designed to divide the roles of military vessels by their weaponry and flight characteristics.
Triton Model
The Triton model is an universal aerospace categorization model that divides nearly every vessel into overarching categories based on their travel capabilities in air and space.
Aerial
Airplanes
Helicopters
Cosmic
Shuttles
Starcruisers
Starcruisers are capable of both orbital descent 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. Unlike voidships, the reality breaches in startunnels have to be evaded by hand, and the continuum distortions caused by Seraph drives act as a limitation in their range, typically enough to cross a single galactic region before having to recharge.
Voidships
Voidships are a category of spaceborne vessels that are too large to land on any celestial bodies, relying on shuttles to conduct business on celestial bodies. Their specialized construction is easily able to tolerate continuous Seraph distortions, negate any breaches in startunnels, 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.

Imperial System
The imperial system is a widely recognized aerospace categorization system that divides military vessels into tactical roles based on their weaponry and flight characteristics.
