The Aetgar Coastal Defence System is a mobile battery developed in 1989 for the IF-11 Anti-Ship Missile. It was originally designed to supplement fixed coastal defence battlements at the time and was heavily utilised during the fall of the Britannic Empire to provide provisional sea defences on territories transferred to Nova English administration. Utilising the two launching tubes the vehicle is able to fire IF-11 missiles against targets up to fifty miles away, whilst support vehicles provide additional ammunition. The system also enables coastal defences to be mobile and reduces the chance of pre-emptive aerial attacks that fixed emplacements have.
