[quote]The entire universe is hidden in the smallest particle of cosmic dust, and every ship that is born in the fires of solar flares carries a tiny portion of the universe. The path is not predetermined, it reveals itself to the ship just as the constellations reveal themselves to the astronomers sight. It cannot be captured with all the weapons of the galaxy, it can only be learnt by embracing infinity. In the infinity of space, where the battlefield spreads beyond the Earths horizon, Dao becomes not just a philosophy but a guiding star. It teaches that no ship can travel faster than the speed of light, but in the winds of speed, being torn between stars and black holes, each pilot discovers their own, personal path. Understand Dao, and then your ship will become a part of the constellation, and you yourself will become a part of the infinite harmony of the universe.[/quote] [hr][/hr]

Unique rank 17 engineering frigate Salamander

[previewyoutube=QW3n-1_MDqA;full][/previewyoutube] [quote]The prototypes of the first Salamander-type frigates were developed in 4623 by a group of engineers who had once left the Outpost Shipyard and set up their own private company. The Blackwood shipyard, known for its quality, was chosen as the production contractor. The ships main feature is the use of numerous unique systems developed from scratch specifically for Salamander. The complex of this equipment seriously increases the engineering capabilities of the frigate. The outline of the ship captures the image of frigates of the past from the Federation civil war. Like its ancestors, Salamander has excellent speed and mobility, which allows it to move quickly across the battlefield, without giving the enemy a chance to intercept it. And a special modification will seriously strengthen the ships shield and hull resistance at maximum speed. Currently, the UMC has signed a contract to test a large batch of Salamander-class frigates. Every interested mercenary will be able to get the new ship for themselves and try it out in battle. There are rumours that the Armada representative office is already interested in the frigate, although they havent officially announced it.[/quote] Special ship part

• Required for the production of the ship.
• Can be obtained as a reward in the Secrets of the Precursors event.

Kongmng control system

• Autonomous control system.
• Controls the Kongmng autonomous drone. Operates in three modes:
  • Shield restoration mode. The drone follows its ship and restores the shield to the owner and all their allies.
  • Repair mode. The drone follows its ship and restores the hull for the owner and all their allies.
  • Defence mode. The drone remains stationary and deals thermal damage to enemy ships.

CFER-24 nailgun

• Kinetic weapon.
• When hitting an ally, it enhances all shield and hull restoration effects.

Kongmng manual controls

• Active module.
• Switches control to the Kongmng drone. In this mode, the ship remains stationary and increases the resistance of the shield and hull. The drone restores the hull to all allied ships, and all enemy ships lose radar range.

Event-24 Horizon Module

• CPU modifier.
• Increases firing range. Reduces damage. The Kongmng drone can shoot at the enemy in manual control mode.

Adaptive polarizer Salamander

• Shield modifier.
• Increases shield and hull resistance to all types of damage when the ship is flying at maximum speed.
