“Algared and Execute show you what they believe could be the new ship lineup for this years Intergalactic Aerospace Expo!”
In this video, the hosts discuss the speculated ship lineup for the upcoming IAE (Intergalactic Aerospace Expo) event in Star Citizen. They begin by mentioning leaks and information from the development pipeline, and they focus on the first ship, the Cut Expedition. They confirm that this ship is an explorer and a great starter option. They also address a theory that it could be the snub ship for the Reclaimer, but they clarify that the ship’s designer stated that “Cutter” was too cool of a name for a snub ship.
Moving on to the next ship, they explain that traditionally, the IAE includes three ships at different price points - starter, medium, and larger/capital. They discuss leaks suggesting the arrival of an alien starter ship, but they offer their perspective that it might actually be a medium ship based on speculation. They analyze images and videos, comparing the ship’s size to other known vessels, and they suggest that the ship’s design and features (including multiple decks) align more with a medium ship rather than a small starter ship. They also consider the possibility that it is manufactured by the alien Gatac company.
They then connect their medium ship theory with a poster spotted in the game that uses similar colors and patterns as the speculated medium ship. Additionally, they mention graffiti in the game that states “Don’t buy alien” and relates to the Gatac threat infiltrating Microtech. These details further support their hypothesis. They acknowledge that they could be wrong and that the ship might be a different alien manufacturer entirely, but the signs point to Gatac.
Lastly, they touch on the RSI Arastra, a large mining ship concept. They explain that the term “arastra” refers to a real-life mining mill used to grind down ore before refining. They speculate that the ship might include a similar processing feature, possibly to crush ore and remove inert materials. They mention that the ship’s name breaks from the trend of being named after star constellations but do not find any strong connections beyond that.
