When diplomacy fails, House Va’ruun sends Azhdaha-The Ninth Fang.

Built not for dogfights—but for eradication, suppression, and orbital dominance—the bomber variant enters contested space alongside its escort counterpart, Azhdaha, operating in tandem as hunter and executioner.

Its primary payload consists of:

☠ 2 × “Jörmungandr-Class” Serpentfire Strategic Missiles

Encased in reinforced ablative cladding and armored against concentrated ground-based interception fire, each missile is designed to survive atmospheric insertion and defensive battery engagement before payload release.

A single Serpentfire strike is capable of:

Flattening hardened military compounds

Vaporizing armored battalions across multi-kilometer kill zones

Rendering critical infrastructure permanently inoperable

⚡ 4 × Vortex Energy Siege Bombs

Designed to destabilize shields, collapse structural integrity, and trigger localized gravitational ruptures within fortified targets.

Defensive and offensive systems include:

4 forward laser arrays for shield stripping and precision engagement

6 Cerberus rocket pods for saturation bombardment and anti-armor suppression

4 rear-facing automated turrets to eliminate pursuing fighters, flankers, and boarding craft

When deployed in tandem with the Azhdaha interceptor, targets face a brutal choice:

Run from the fighter...

Or survive the bomber.

Most fail at both.

Born from the combined vision of Dr. Ekris, one of House Va’ruun’s leading propulsion theorists, and a talented researcher Sahima Ka’dic, Project Azhdaha was conceived as a next-generation tactical interceptor—an answer to the evolving threats gathering across settled space.

Designed around overwhelming agility, advanced inertial vectoring, and a silhouette meant to inspire fear before a shot was ever fired, the Azhdaha was intended to redefine House Va’ruun’s presence in orbital warfare.

But as chaos engulfed Dazra, resources were diverted, shipyards fell silent, and the project was indefinitely suspended. Many believed Azhdaha would remain nothing more than classified schematics buried beneath Va’ruun archives.

They were wrong.

In the aftermath, House Va’ruun understood one truth: wounded powers are hunted. To show weakness was to invite extinction. The project was quietly revived under direct military commission, with multiple frames ordered for frontline deployment.

Now, when hostile sensors catch its signature, they already know

Azhdaha was never built for peace.

This was the project I spent 20 hours on and is the most complex build I've ever done, I found the Vtol fans and engines to be the biggest challenge since I was aiming for a vectoring Vtol system.

Please let me know what you think 💚

I was contacted by the community group manager who requested my permission to share this so thanks to CVH for this one 💚 you man!

Sith strike craft engineered for speed, aggression, and surgical destruction. By the time its silhouette crosses your canopy… the engagement is already over.

May the 4th be with you ( I know I'm early but to me it's star Wars Month)

Big thanks to Va'ruun Sev' for his newest update and the Va'ruun Sev' Wyvern, it's a beautiful ship.

I really wished we had some ship lightning like this.

Axiom’s Talon is a high-precision interceptor gunship—built around control, positioning, and decisive strikes.

Flat, wide profile for stability and forward dominance, split rear prongs for visual and spatial control, and a focused midline that reads like a kill-vector.

In simple terms:

it doesn’t chase fights—it lines them up and ends them cleanly.
