The Sabre Firebird is a high-speed fighter specialising in rapid missile barrages from its bespoke array. It destroys threats before they can react, on long-range missions or defending its base.

📜 Its history

The Sabre was designed in 2945 in answer to a Navy request for a next-generation fighter able to outpace and outturn the Vanduul Stinger heavy fighter. The Navy hasn’t accepted the bid yet, but Aegis made a run of production prototypes available to licensed civilian pilots.
