Ellisair ES-1 "Beast"

A quad-engine interceptor produced by Ellisair Foundries, primarily suited for combat outside the Earth's atmosphere. It is the Imperial Sola's first space dedicated fighter aircraft. Its two primary engines alone can propel it from 0 to Mach 1 in a matter of seconds, while its auxiliary engines, which are tuned for out-of-atmosphere cruising, aren't as powerful, allowing the craft a speed of just around 550km/h in atmosphere. With thrust vectoring on its primary thrusters, this already formidable aircraft is capable of producing a relatively tight turning circle, outmatching all of its opponents at the time.

Creator's note
