The [[Aegis Dynamics|Aegis]] '''Retaliator Base''' is the base variant of the heavy bomber used by the [[UEE Military]] for centuries. It is a key portion of the UEE's power projection, Retaliator squadrons have served with distinction against outlaws, the [[Vanduul]] and elsewhere. The base version of the Retaliator is customizable with additional modules.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=pledge/ships/aegis-retaliator/Retaliator-Base|text=Retaliator Base Store Page}}</ref><ref>{{Cite RSI|url=pledge/ships/aegis-retaliator/Retaliator-Bomber|text=Retaliator Bomber Store Page}}</ref>

==Features==
*'''Modularity:''' The vehicle has the option to swap out two central areas of the ship with various different modular rooms. These can fundamentally alter the function and role of the ship.
*'''Guns:''' The ships Guns are on the five manned turrets. Three of them hold a pair of Size 2 guns each, while the other two turrets can hold a pair of Size 3 guns each.

==History==

Since its introduction in the 26th century, Aegis Dynamics' Retaliator has had a distinguished, if conflicted, history. Before they started designing the bomber, researchers performed extensive interviews with military pilots to understand what was lacking in the contemporary bombers of the time. This pilot-centric approach drove the design decisions of what became the Retaliator; a heavy ordnance weapons platform capable of handling both fighters and ground targets. Although the Retaliator was almost synonymous with the [[Messer Era|reign of Messers]] and began to see decreased usage as the [[UEE Navy|military]] distanced itself from that era, the ship began a surprising resurgence in the private sector.

The Retaliator was at the center of many controversies during the later Messer years, when the Navy decided to use Cluster Missiles against a political activist group hiding in what is now [[Haven]], sparking debate throughout the [[UEE]]. After the [[Battle of Idris IV]], Retaliators became common in recruitment messages for the [[First Tevarin War]]. Images like this one were created to help maintain the momentum of that landmark victory, cited by many historians as the turning point in the war.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=media/7jnt1hhl3za8cr/source/Retaliator-Brochure-V6.pdf|text=Retaliator Brochure}}</ref>

===Series variants===

'''[[Retaliator Bomber]]'''
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|[[File:Retaliator_flying_over_Daymar_banking_right_-_Front_Starboard.jpg|center|frameless|128x72px]]
|This is the exact same as the base model, but comes with the 'Torpedo' modules installed as standard. It is the original Retaliator model and has been used by the [[UEE Military]] for centuries as a long range heavy bomber.
|}

===Modules===

In-universe, the Retaliator was first introduced as a heavy [[UEE]] bomber, with the option to swap out various modules to replace functionality coming later. In-game, the modules have been modelled but are waiting on modularity game systems to be implemented.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIjABTCQYiA&ab_channel=StarCitizen|text=Inside Star Citizen: Physician Admission {{!}} Summer 2021|accessdate=2021-08-19}}</ref>

'''Future Modules'''

CIG have stated that they hope to have more modules types in the future. These include Bomb Bays,<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/engineering/16589-Q-A-Crusader-Hercules|text=Bombs on the retaliator ?}}</ref> Bounty Hunting, Medical, Salvaging and even recharging stations for the [[Titan exosuit|Titan armor]].<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/14883-Retaliator-Modules-Available|text=Retaliator Modules Available}}</ref>
