Aircraft Synergy is a passive skill available to the Engineer. It is auto granted at rank 1, and upgraded using Certification Points.
While the engineer is crewing an eligible vehicle they own, the vehicle will automatically repair at a rate of 1% of its maximum health every second. Receiving damage pauses these repairs for 12 seconds.
This skill applies to empire specific fighters, Interceptors, and Dervishes by default with Valkyries and Liberators, as well as Galaxies, able to enjoy this perk when the skill is upgraded to ranks 2 and 3 respectively.
This skill only triggers while the engineer is crewing a vehicle they own. It cannot repair vehicles owned by other players, nor will it repair the engineer's vehicle if they are not currently inside. Aircraft Synergy stacks additively with the Nanite Auto Repair System defense slot upgrade.

History[]
July 1, 2021 Update (_Integration)
- Rank 1 now includes ESF Interceptor variants, and Heavy Fighters.
- Rank 2 now includes the Valkyrie.
- Renamed "Aircraft Synergy"
- While an Engineer is in the vehicle, it will gain a heal-over-time equivalent to rank 1 Nanite Auto-Repair.
- This effect does not stack with other Engineers sitting in the vehicle.
- This effect does stack with the Nanite Auto-Repair certification line.
- Added two additional ranks have been added to Aircraft Synergy 250 and 500 certs, and may be found in the Engineer's passive certification line.
- Rank 2 now affects Liberators.
- Rank 3 now affects Galaxies.
Dev note: The intention behind this change is to help reduce the impact of chip damage from ground vehicles at long range. The Valkyrie doesn't receive this benefit as, while crewed, it can repair itself much more quickly than other vehicles, and do so while airborne.
- The Engineer’s passive “ESF Synergy” (auto-repair) ability is now shown on the passive certs screen.
- Added to the live game.
- Engineers piloting Scythes, Reaver or Mosquitos will enable health regeneration on the vehicle equivalent to rank 1 nanite auto repair system but with a 12 second damage delay. This does not stack with the nanite auto repair item.
