- "The Delta-7 achieved exceptional speed and agility by linking two NOvaldex J-44 "Jetforce" sublight engines to two electromagnetic thrust nozzles."
- ―Official History of the Rebel Movements, Volume One
The J-44 "Jetforce" was a model of a starfighter sublight engine built by Novaldex. Used aboard Kuat Systems Engineering's Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor, it was a precursor to the J-77 "Event Horizon" sublight engine. Because of the J-44's smaller size, its reactant tanks required excessive refueling.[1]
