Protecting the Ships and the Sea

The SCF-68i Sea Ranger I-SPEC is a derivative of the SCF-68i Sea Ranger S.3 designed specifically for fleet defense and interception. It features more hard points, advanced weaponry, an advanced radar, better engines, and canards removed. The Sea Ranger I-SPEC officially entered service with the Starcrest United Naval Force on May 17, 2025 to replace the SCF-46i Valiant I-SPEC S.3 as the carrier's main fleet defense fighter. The Sea Ranger I-SPEC itself will be replaced by the SCF-71 Sentinel, projected to be around 2035 at least.

The Sea Ranger I-SPEC carries 22 missiles to defend the fleet. It's armament can carry the SCATRAM NEO and Super SCATRAM NEO. The SCATRAM NEO itself has been a proven hypersonic missile ever since the later years of the Cold War while the Super variant is a much larger and more powerful variant of said missile.
