- Model: Voidflare Ion Engines Mk. I
- Modularity: No
- Production: Limited
- Material:
- Alchemized Sarrassian Iron
- Ion Engine Components
- Ion-Focusing Lignan Crystals
- Sith-inspired Electromagnetic Resonance Coils

- Advanced Ion Propulsion System: Enhanced ion drive core incorporating Ion-Focusing Lignan Crystals, drastically increasing propulsion efficiency and agility.
- Electromagnetic Sensor Disruption Field: Integrated electromagnetic resonance coils create an interference field activated or deactivated by the vessel to disrupt enemy sensors passively by creating localized interference fields, significantly complicating enemy targeting solutions.
- Sith Signature Aesthetic: Distinctive dark crimson ion trails signify Sith vessels, intended as psychological warfare, unmistakably identifying the fleet as Kainate.
- Thermal and EM Shielded Housing: Alchemically reinforced and specially designed Sarrassian Iron casing that mitigates thermal signatures and resists sensor detection to an extent.

- Exceptional Maneuverability: Superior acceleration and agility far surpassing conventional military-grade engines due to the precision-focused Lignan-enhanced ion stream.
- Sensor Disruption: Passive electromagnetic field moderately disrupts enemy targeting computers, missile locks, and Force-based tracking methods. Thermally shielded housing slightly reduces engine heat signatures, complicating infrared targeting.
- Psychological Impact: Visually intimidating crimson-black ion trails instill immediate recognition and fear among enemy crews.

- High Maintenance: Specialized omponents and advanced crystals require routine expert calibration and maintenance between combat operations, creating logistical considerations.

The Voidflare Ion Engines Mk. I represent state-of-the-art propulsion technology developed by Shadow Mind and produced by Malsheem Hypernautics and Manufacturing specifically for the Kainate Shadow Armada. It's the latest product in the Shadow Hands efforts to revolutionize the Kainate's forces, pushing them far beyond all others. These engines integrate advanced ion-reactor technology with unique Ion Focusing Lignan Crystals and electromagnetic resonance coils, creating a propulsion system with unprecedented maneuverability and agility. They outperform standard military-grade engines, offering tactical superiority in combat through rapid acceleration, precision maneuvering, and consistent evasion capability.
Engineered with a visually striking Sith aesthetic, Voidflare engines produce a dark crimson ion exhaust trail, instantly recognizable across battlefields. The engines also incorporate subtle electromagnetic sensor disruption fields and thermally shielded casings, moderately complicating enemy targeting efforts and adding a layer of psychological warfare through unmistakable and fear inspiring visuals. However, the specialized nature and advanced components necessitate careful maintenance, demanding the attention of dedicated Sith engineers or highly trained technical crews to ensure sustained peak performance.
