Ares Aerospace

Ares Aerospace (: Ares Loftfeart), or simply Ares, is a is a Tiperyn  manufacturer of military and civilian  and, , , and.

Ares was founded in 1913 by former Navy officer Bradford Myerscough, making it Tiperyn's oldest aerospace company and largest partially state-owned corporation. Making its mark by producing early military for the Tiperyn Realm Aero Service and civilian airliners during the Grand Campaigns, Ares soon grew to prominence as a major supplier of Tiperyn's air forces and. Ares currently manufactures and distributes its products worldwide, with its headquarters located in the -dominant city of Hawkreath, Tiperyn.

Ares is among the few large corporations in Tiperyn under private ownership, although the Tiperyn Ministry of commerce owns 40% of the company. Charles Myerscough and the Myerscough estate currently own a of Ares. Although most large companies are state-owned, the Ministry of Commerce has made exceptions for older and productive exporters that are competitive in foreign markets. As Tiperyn's premiere manufacturer of aircraft and spacecraft, Ares is heavily by the Holy Tiperyn Realm. Ares has been able to grow through the mid-20th century into the 21st century partially through its dominance of Tiperyn government contracts and the growth of Tiperyn's airline industry.

Ares Aerospace is organized into three divisions: Ares Commercial Aviation (involved in the manufacture of commercial airliners and general aviation aircraft), Ares Defence & Security (involved in the manufacture of military aircraft and ordnance) and Ares Universal (involved in the manufacture of rockets, satellites, spacecraft and communications equipment). Additionally, Ares Aerospace operates Belmont Skyworks—a smaller partially state-owned commercial aerospace manufacturer focused on small general aviation aircraft and regional airliners—as a subsidiary after having acquired it in 2010. Ares handles the marketing of Belmont's lineup and their aircraft are in the Ares catalog.

Identity and branding
Bradford Myerscough named his company after the Anglicized name for the Ancient Lykoraen god of war. This was an allusion to his intent to militarize early aerospace technology on behalf of the Tiperyn government. Since its inception, a characteristic of Ancient Lykore in what is now Thalaky has represented Ares, although the type helmet, colors, and stylization has changed over time. Today, the Ares logo is a stylized bronze Lykoraen helmet with a royal blue.

Ares Antina
The Ares Antina is a   and the flagship airliner of Ares Aerospace. Having been introduced in 2010, the Antina is the second of Ares' "Next-Generation Airliners" (NGA), featuring upgrades and new construction methods that had been initially introduced on the Ares Gesina X in 2009.

The defining features of Ares' NGA program include carbon-fibre reinforced polymer fuselages, glass cockpits, fly-by-wire and extremely fuel-efficient high-bypass turbofan engines. The Antina 100's turbofans are bleedless to increase fuel efficiency. Thus, the bulk of its systems (including hydraulics for the control surfaces, cabin pressurization and de-icing) are powered by electricity and air is compressed as needed. By contrast, many contemporary airliners has a bleed air system that takes and compresses air from its engines to perform these tasks. From the Antina 100 and on, Ares has opted to use bleedless engines on its NGAs. Its cockpit features instrumentation displayed on LCD screens and fly-by-wire controls with a side stick set-up. However, the controls have artificial feedback and movements made by one pilot transfer to the other.

The Antina 100 is optimized for ultra-long haul flights, with the Antina 100—the standard 330 seat model—reaching out to 15,500 kilometers. With a seating capacity of less than half of some contemporary double-decker quad engine airliners in its -100 configuration, the Antina is well suited as a point-to-point aircraft, able to profitably and efficiently run long-haul flights between markets that cannot fill larger aircraft.
