What to know
The Aegis Tiburon is a Hammerhead-derived anti-capital gunship built around a pilot-controlled Size 10 Supremacy-10T laser beam. A crew of up to nine supports the large hull, defensive stations, engineering, and 64-SCU interior while the pilot keeps the beam on a...

A Hammerhead-sized hull with a very different target
Where the Hammerhead spreads twenty-four Size 4 guns across an anti-fighter screen, the Tiburon concentrates its identity in one capital-scale beam weapon. It stays with a fleet, pressures large ships, and relies on its crew and escorts while the pilot works the Size 10 laser.
Built to threaten capital ships, not chase fighters
The Tiburon is not a larger version of a dogfighter. Its beam needs a clear line to a substantial target, while defensive stations, shields, engineering, and nearby escorts protect the ship long enough for that weapon to matter.
Development note: The Tiburon is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 4.8.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
The systems behind the Supremacy-10T
The pilot controls the main beam, but the rest of the crew turns the Tiburon into a usable fleet weapon. Sensors identify the target, defensive stations watch smaller threats, and engineering protects the power, cooling, and shields needed to keep firing.
A bespoke pilot-controlled Size 10 laser gives the Tiburon direct firepower against capital-class ships and their major systems.
The pilot aims and fires the primary beam, keeping the attack tied directly to the ship's movement and line of sight.
A crew of up to nine supports sensors, defensive coverage, engineering, damage response, and the systems needed around the beam.
The Tiburon's bridge connects navigation, sensors, weapons, and deployed teams to one view of the wider operation.
Direct access to major systems helps the Tiburon's engineers respond without blocking crew movement between active stations.
The Size 10 beam at the centre of the Tiburon
The Tiburon replaces the Hammerhead's distributed anti-fighter emphasis with a bespoke Hurston Dynamics Supremacy-10T laser beam. The pilot aims the Size 10 weapon at capital-class ships while the rest of the crew supports the firing platform.
Pilot-controlled Size 10 Supremacy-10T beam
The Supremacy-10T exists to attack large ships and important systems, not to spend the Tiburon's time chasing agile fighters.
The pilot controls the main weapon directly and needs steady aim long enough for sustained fire to matter.
The other stations keep the ship alive and the beam available while escorts deal with small attackers outside the main weapon's role.
Anti-Capital Gunship in action
A successful Tiburon attack gives the pilot a clear beam line, keeps smaller threats away, and supports the pilot-controlled Size 10 Supremacy-10T beam with power, cooling, shields, and target information.
-
Choose the capital ship or major system that matters
The beam belongs on a large, valuable target. Sensors and command should settle that priority before the Tiburon commits its hull.
-
Position the Tiburon
The Tiburon has to place its large hull where the beam can reach the target without masking friendly ships or exposing every defensive arc at once.
-
Hold the Supremacy-10T on the selected target
The Tiburon's pilot controls the main beam directly and holds it on the selected capital ship or major system while the firing line remains clear.
-
Protect the beam, its power, and its cooling
For the Tiburon, defensive stations watch smaller attackers while engineering manages shields, damage, power, and cooling so the pilot can keep the main weapon effective.
Supporting a capital-ship attack
The Tiburon works best inside a formation. It needs a target worthy of the main beam, escorts to deal with agile attackers, and a crew that can keep the large firing platform stable, protected, and supplied with power.
The Tiburon is intended to attack large ships. Its main weapon is not a practical substitute for the tracking and coverage used against light fighters.
The gunship operates with escorts and a wider formation that can protect it from smaller attackers while it works on the main target.
A 64-SCU cargo grid gives the crew room for supplies and equipment during longer fleet missions.
Aboard the Tiburon, command stations coordinate the pilot-controlled Size 10 Supremacy-10T beam with navigation, sensors, embarked teams, and the wider formation.
The Tiburon's crew keeps one capital-scale beam in the fight
The pilot aims the Supremacy-10T beam, while defensive stations, sensors, and engineering protect the large firing platform around it.
Keeping the Tiburon working as one ship
The Tiburon is built to attack a capital ship, not screen the fleet from fighters. Its crew keeps smaller threats, target information, shields, power, cooling, and damage response from interrupting the pilot's beam attack.
On the Tiburon, a pilot-controlled Size 10 laser beam gives this large gunship a focused job against capital ships, while a full crew keeps the firing platform protected and operating.
The Tiburon's pilot uses the main controls to hold the beam on one capital-class ship or major system while the crew preserves a clear firing line.
Sensors, defensive stations, engineering, and nearby escorts give the Tiburon enough time and stability to keep its Size 10 weapon effective.
