Released in June 2016 via the Gamma Case, the SG 553 | Aerial sits at the Mil-Spec tier within The Gamma Collection.

The float range for this finish is restricted to 0.00–0.60, so Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred are the only obtainable conditions on the open market. The restricted range is set by Valve at the time of release.

A StatTrak™ version is available, which tracks confirmed kills made while the skin is equipped and typically commands a premium over the standard finish. Active listings for SG 553 | Aerial are tracked across 17 marketplaces, with prices spanning $0.19 to $2.00 depending on wear, variant, and seller.
