The Vanguard Harbinger is a medium-sized 2-person bomber from Aegis Dynamics. It features a room module that will in a future patch be interchangeable with one of three different modules. The weaponry includes the torpedo bay in its standard module that also houses a manned missile turret, four bespoke weapon hardpoints on the nose, one weapon hardpoint on the chin, and four missile racks.

“	The Vanguard Harbinger is Earth’s standard fighter-bomber, converting the standard Warden model’s escape pod into a potent bomb bay. The extended range of the Vanguard and the relatively small profile mean that it can go where carrier-based planes or larger strategic bombers don’t… and then strike hard and make it back to frontier bases. The Vanguard Harbinger is a powerful bomber that can operate out of the roughest forward operating bases.	”
