Star Citizen Wiki wrote:The Aegis Javelin is a destroyer utilized by the United Empire of Earth Navy (UEEN). Designed as a modular spacecraft, the UEEN could make major conversions to the Javelin for different roles rather than constructing individual specialized capital ships. Javelins are used as convoy escorts, fleet support, orbital fire suppression, reconnaissance in force, and fast interception missions. Surplus Javelins have been sold on the civilian market. The ship features a total of five decks, each with a variety of crew positions and areas to explore and utilize.
This is the most expensive ship in the game that can be purchased by players. Costs $3,000 ($2,700 Warbond) and we still don't have one. We iz poors :( Only saving grace is that it's not available in-game yet. Well apart from recent hijinks like below.
If I grabbed one, I would never let go, never turn off the computer. We should look into how to get one.

I believe it's the coolest cap ship in all of science fiction. It was designed by David Hobbins who has worked on Star Wars: The Mandalorian, Solo: A Star Wars Story, Star Wars: Episode VIII, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Star Wars: Underworld, Guardians of the Galaxy, After Earth, Dead Space 3 et al.: https://starcitizen.tools/David_Hobbins

You could make a Noah's Ark-type zoo lol. I bet eventually someone will travel the galaxy collecting flora and fauna like this. Hell, I'd do it. Then you could start a fight tournament, and get people to bet on them. So many possibilities not allowed in invisible wall gaming.

eltreum1 wrote:The NPC Javelin is in the game for 3.23 missions, and it can be stolen the same way as the NPC mission Idris. The interior is only partially there in sections. This year for fleet week in 2 weeks we will get to formally tour the SQ42 completed Idris and have to board one as the final XenoThreat event mission. I have seen it once, it's huge, a flying FPS arena. The Javelin has a partial bridge and 3 of the central decks we toured for fleet week last year.

@rmap_ wrote:It isn't quite meant for that, however Clio and the places we went to have rather weak atmospheres. If you ever get your hands on one, don't take it to microTech or any of the main planets because it will stall and you won't get back up :].
@Kaiser_Geromey wrote:@Rat_Poobrain I tried on microTech, and while it IS possible to barely hold yourself up, it's not in "combat shape".
@SolomonTheVengeful wrote:The Idris isn't supposed to be as fast as it is in game either or as maneuverable. These ships are far from complete and I'm guessing some day the Javelin will fall like a brick in the right atmospheres.
