With Alpha 3.1 on the horizon, and the Persistent Universe continuing to develop, we're introducing newly flyable ships, as well as bringing back some older favorites. When we initially release ship concepts to backers, we offer them at the lowest price, with the understanding that the prices will go up when the ships become flyable. To commemorate the incoming 3.1 patch, we are offering a War Bond option to give you all one final chance to pledge for this selection of flyable ships at their original concept prices. Not only does your War Bond pledge secure the lower price, but you'll also get a one year insurance policy, assuring you peace of mind while venturing boldly into the Star Citizen universe.
The Terrapin’s robust shield systems and distinct layered armor provide the maximum possible defense for its pilot and crew, and while it's no fighter, the ship is more than capable of keeping the most fearsome Vanduul raider at bay. The Terrapin is the obvious choice for trailblazers intent on barreling headlong into the countless dangers of untamed space.
The inaugural design from the newly re-established Tumbril Land Systems, the Cyclone is unmatched as a short-range all-terrain ground vehicle. With a potent combination of speed, maneuverability, and rugged durability, the Cyclone is a perfect choice for local deliveries and transport between homesteads and outposts.
MISC makes a bid for the next Murray Cup with the all-new Razor. This advanced racer features a composite frame that puts pure speed ahead of everything else... it's the ship for pilots who want to leave their fellow racers in the dust.
Aegis Dynamics' heavy industrial salvage ship is equipped with a reinforced cargo bay, a long-range jump drive and launch pods for unmanned drones, making Reclaimer an ideal ship for reaping the valuable resources from deep space wrecks. Tractor beams, floodlights, and robust scanner options round out the tools on this capable, utilitarian spacecraft.
Deriving its name from the Xi’an word for ‘thrust,’ the Nox Kue delivers handily on the promise of speed. This limited version of the open-canopy racer features a stunning brushed-silver finish and was specifically created to celebrate the inaugural sale of the first Nox for Human riders.
With a cockpit specifically redesigned for maximum visibility, advanced sensors, and an onboard Ursa rover for planetary expeditions,the Aquila takes RSI's ubiquitous Constellation freighter and imbues it with the spirit of exploration. Let's see what's out there.
The Prospector has long been the preferred ship for solo miners and surveyors throughout the universe. Featuring MISC's sleek design sensibility, a bevy of high-tech mining tools, and dedicated storage pods for extracted resources, this utilitarian powerhouse perfectly balances form and functionality.
The Drake Dragonfly is the perfect snub ship for anyone looking to live dangerously. With nothing separating the pilot from the perils of space, it's as much an adventure as it is a ship. Dual-mode conversion allows the Dragonfly to operate on the ground or in space, and a rear-facing second seat means you can even take a cohort along on your exploits.
Remember: we offer pledge ships to help fund Star Citizen’s development. The funding received from events such as these are what allow us to include deeper features in the Star Citizen world. These ships will be available for in-game credits and/or otherwise earnable through play in the final universe, and they are not required to start the game. The goal is to make additional ships available that expand the depth and variety of the game world and give players a different experience rather than any particular advantage.
