What the...?!

SMCa Aegis?!
SM* O**ck?!
SMD Orion?! Well, ok, a green orion... but SM would be the Sol Military, eh? Aegis... odd... I'm waiting for more of these 733+ mods to be released

Let's go over em one at a time.

Screenshots 23 on -

Okay, first take a look at the fighter targeted in screenshot 23. We know it's a fighter because of the SMF designation, but we can't tell the exact class. I'm thinking Qefton. There's another example of the class in the targeting reticle.
Note the goal in this mission, it's a TAG mission against 3 enemy large capships.

Screenshot 24 doesn't show much anything useful.

Screenshot 25, however, shows a whole lot. The "Baldur" ship seen in the escort shiplist in the previous screen is revealed to be the SMCa Aegis <i>Baldur</i>. I assume Sol Military Carrier Baldur. SMCa Aegis, I assume, is a carrier / point defense warship (think Aeolus with big hangars).
Another thing of note is a close look at one of the fighters. Look between the weapons list and the escort shiplist..you'll see the rear end of a ship that sort of looks like a Herc II the first time you see it. I think this is the SMF Qefton or whatever.


Screenshot 26 is good too. The only real thing I can discern from this is a new ship class, the SMDr Grendel. The specific ship is the <i>Kvasir</i>. SMDr could stand for Sol Military Dreadnaught, I suppose, but I think it's something different. I dunno what though.

Screenshot 27 is again, useless, except for the targeting reticle. The SMD Orion.The SMD Orion is a modified Orion, I assume, and I heard that Dark already did a new texture job in some other thread.

Lightbulb

Now, now people, i think Ice is doing a great job at keeping things under wraps we'll just have to wait patiently for more details to "trickle" out before we make assumptions.
