Air Vehicles
The Galaxy is a gigantic aircraft capable of carrying a pilot, 3 gunners, 2 MAXs, 6 other passengers, as well as a vehicle in the cargo bay (with passengers). Fully loaded, with passengers in the vehicle stowed in back, the Galaxy can easily carry a full Squad of soldiers, plus a pilot and gun crew to bring them to the battle intact and alive. The gunner positions have 20mm Chainguns to use in defense against airborne targets, or they can be alternately used to pound ground targets from above.

The Liberator Bomber is a three-crew vehicle only acquirable with the Technology Plant benefit. The pilot not only flies the vehicle, but also has a fixed-forward firing 35mm heavy machinegun. The tailgunner has a highly-maneuverable 25mm machinegun to cover the rear of the aircraft. The Liberator can drop bombs of two varieties, either 'tankbuster' or 'anti-personnel'. The bombardier has some control over the destination of the bombs and can set drag on those bombs to hit nearer or farther than the default drop position by moving the mouse back and forth along the sighting line seen from the bombardier position.

The Lodestar is the heavy mover on Auraxis, able to lift and carry any ground vehicle quickly and smoothly to a desired location. To load a vehicle simply drive the vehicle near the rear of the Lodestar, atop the mounting circle provided for vehicles, and then hit "G to enter". The tailgate will drop allowing you to drive into the cargo bay. As your vehicle enters the cargo bay, the Lodestar will grab your vehicle automatically and the main bay is sealed using a force shield to protect it's cargo from damage while in transit. Once landed, the Lodestar provides a field rearm/repair station for all vehicles, as long as it is intact and landed.

When crusing at slower speeds, the Mosquito can 'uncover' enemy troops and vehicles for friendlies in the nearby vincinity aswell as 'duck' under enemy sensory defenses. Although the Mosquito's functions work best when moving slowly, the Mosquito is the fastest vehicle in game and is primarly a scout craft.

The Reaver carries much more armor and ordnance than the lighter Mosquito. Of course, this makes it less maneuverable, but the Reaver is easily the king of the skies with it's forward-firing 20mm Recoilless Cannon and secondary firing Rocket Launchers. The Reaver requires the Technology Plant benefit to be purchasable.

The Vulture is a fast attack support bomber variant of the Liberator, and like the Liberator only acquirable with the Technology Plant benefit. It has lighter armour providing increased handling and speed, with the addition of an afterburner system. Designed to attack vehicles, it holds a three person crew all with their own gun seat. The noce cannon delivers a powerful burst of rapid fire armour piercing slugs while the bomb bay has been modified to deliver heavy tank buster bombs, making it the AV support platform that it is.
To gain access to this air vehicle you must first complete the Bomber Ace Bronze merit using the Liberator. This Merit is awarded to a Liberator pilot for kills made by his Bombardier or Tailgunner.

The Wasp is an interceptor variant of the Mosquito and requires the Technology Plant benefit to be purchasable. It carries a 12mm chaingun that delivers rapid-fire short burst of explosive rounds and air-to-air guided missiles. The Wasp's afterburner lasts twice as long compared to the Mosquito, but also takes longer to recharge. The Wasp's armour is significantly lighting than that of the Mosquito's and also lacks the Mosquito's Overflight Radar system.
