Description: The Aegis Class Heavy Dropship was another project designed under the Modernization Program under the tenure of Alyesa Praxon. This dropship was much like other pet projects of Alyesa Praxon and was intended to launch Incom Corporation into the next level of business. The design would catch the ever watching eye of the Omega Protectorate, more specifically [member="Ayden Cater"]. Incom Corporation would strike a private deal to exclusively produce this product for the Omega Protectorate.
[background=#232323]When Project Dark Tide was completed and Incom Corporation began fielding Stealth-X Starfighters, Alyesa Praxon-Organa agreed to field up to fifteen new upgrade kits to Omega Protectorate forces for the Aegis Class. These kits would include the Starry Night Camo, Retooled Tibanna X burning engines and the Sensor Suite similar to the design in the Stealth-X. This would enable the Omega Protectorate Forces to strike anywhere, anytime. They would also be equipped with the similiar anti-tampering devices as the Stealth-X models to prevent capture or reverse engineering.[/background]
[background=#232323]The project was eventually split up with The Republic Gaining 15 and the Omega Protectorate Gaining 15 more.[/background]

When Project Dark Tide was completed and Incom Corporation began fielding XJ-7 Stealth-X Starfighters, Alyesa Organa agreed to field up to fifteen new upgrade kits to Omega Protectorate forces for the Aegis Class. These kits would include the Starry Night Camo, Retooled Tibanna X burning engines and the Sensor Suite similar to the design in the Stealth-X. This would enable the Omega Protectorate Forces to strike anywhere, anytime. They would also be equipped with the similar anti-tampering devices as the Stealth-X models to prevent capture or reverse engineering.
Upon the dissolution of the Omega Protectorate and the Galactic Republic, the assets were obtained by Incom Corporation for use by the Galactic Alliance and other entities that Alyesa Organa as CEO deemed fit.
