The "xNumber" notation (e.g. "x6") refers to the number of models included with that order, not the number of parts (i.e. if it says x6 you get six models)

The Utah Class of Aerolyth Battleship was designed to be a “First Line” flying battleship capa-ble of taking on the strongest flying vehicles on Earth and directing a sizeable water-borne fleet as well. The Utah class conformed to the “Standard” airship design of the US Navy – max speed of 35m/s, heavy survivability features, and extensive automation.

After the success of the Captain-class battleships, the Admiralty increased research and development funding for the Aerial branch. While the Captains had begun incorpo-rating aspects from the Cayley Design School, The Aerial Sovereign marked a more conservative “traditionalist” school. The role of flying ships was to be a mirror of their ‘wet’ counterparts. They were to accompany the fleet, and focus primarily on defeating other naval ships. Crews should be interchangeable between the flying and wet portions of the Navy. The Aerial Sovereign even had a weapons load that was largely identical to the Royal Sovereign class of con-ventional battleships.

The Aheam Class of destroyers began life as an 1894 design study for a long range flying patrol craft. However, the Navy of the time was losing interest in small lightly armored flying craft. The design study was shelved and would have been forgotten, if not for the reappearance of the Hive. By 1897, it was clear that the picture had changed. Swarms of Lancers can easily avoid serious damage from a 12-inch armor piercing shell, but are prone to machine gun fire. With its focus on heavy units, the Navy faced the frightening prospect of losing its cruisers and battleships to mobs of flying bugs – or worse – accepting Army escorts. The Aheam Design Study was revived.

. By 1880, only a handful of antiquated ships were in commission, and the aerial program was anemic and underfunded. Indeed, many private American shipyards had produced more ships for export than constituted the entire US Navy.
Under the 1883 "New Navy" Authorization Act (March 3, 1883), the US Congress set aside funding to construct several sea-going ships and some “preliminary” flying ships. Notably, Naval Secretary Hunt’s proposal for a flying Cruiser had been approved.

The Mustang-class torpedo boat is long distance anti-shipping hybrid Aerolyth craft. It was con-ceived in 1884 as an inexpensive craft capable of patrolling and defending America’s Eastern Coast. An Army project, it was also an attempt to demonstrate that the US Army should “own” the skies, not the “New Navy.” Senior generals reasoned that if flyers like the Mustang class could effectively prevent foreign fleets from approaching the coast, and harass enemy shipping, it would ensure that the Army would be the nation’s first line of defense (and ensure ample fund-ing).

The Ornithopter Mark I is a light ground support and attack craft of the First Hive War. A hy-brid, it generates its lift with Aerolyth, but uses long flapping wings to provide thrust and to ma-neuver. Because of this, it is extremely maneuverable.
