The Aegis Dynamics Gladius is a small 1-person fixed-wing light fighter. It has three weapon and four missile-rack hardpoints and is capable of short-range quantum travel. It is also available in two special editions, the Gladius Valiant and the Pirate Gladius.

“	The Gladius is an older design which has been updated over the years to keep up with modern technology. In military circles, the Gladius is beloved for its performance and its simplicity. A fast, light fighter with a laser-focus on dogfighting, the Gladius is an ideal interceptor or escort ship.	”
