What happens after the Sabre creates an opening
Reduced signatures and combat systems reward patient contact management rather than a prolonged visible brawl. That balance defines the Sabre.

Aegis Sabre
Keep the Sabre quiet until the information matters
The Sabre is a fighter and the original variant of the Sabre series developed by Aegis Dynamics. In the Sabre's workflow, reduced signatures and combat systems reward patient contact management rather than a prolonged visible brawl.

Low-Signature Operations
The tactical opening created by the Sabre
The defining advantage aboard the Sabre is the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles. The pilot still needs the speed, awareness, and timing to turn that short advantage into a useful result. The ship is engineered to serve as a powerful combatant while maintaining a more discreet profile. A UEE Navy request for a faster, more agile answer to the Vanduul Stinger led Aegis to develop the Sabre.
Built in an evolving universe
The Sabre is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 2.2.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
Stealth systems
The Sabre's control and interception tools
The Sabre creates its advantage through the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles. Sensors, position, timing, and supporting weapons turn that brief advantage into a useful result.

02
Next-generation fighter
A UEE Navy request for a faster, more agile answer to the Vanduul Stinger led Aegis to develop the Sabre.
03
Contact identification
The Sabre must confirm identity and range before applying the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles to a ship that may be moving through crowded space.
04
Sabre's power demand
Specialist equipment competes with propulsion, shields, and weapons, so the Sabre's operator has to watch power and heat during use.
Defining feature
The Sabre's stealth fighter package
Four pilot-controlled Size 3 guns and four Size 3 missiles give the Sabre a balanced attack package. Signature-reducing materials and stealth components help the pilot control when that firepower first appears on an opponent's sensors.
Why it matters
Four Size 3 guns, four Size 3 missiles, and a lower signature

Stealth-focusedSignature
Single pilotControl
Managing emissions and line of sight gives the pilot more control over when the target first sees the fighter.
The direct-fire battery rewards a clean first attack rather than revealing the Sabre for an uncertain opportunity.
The guided load can pressure movement or support the gun attack once the pilot has confirmed the contact.
Reduce, observe, act, disappear
Where the Sabre changes an opponent's options
The Sabre controls exposure before it controls the fight, keeping emissions low until the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles can be used without wasting the quiet approach.
Reduce
Set emissions before entering sensor range
Power, shields, cooling, and active systems should match how quietly the Sabre needs to approach.
Observe
Use the quiet approach to learn first
During work with the Sabre, target position, support, and movement are the advantage earned by staying difficult to detect.
Act
Keep the Sabre's active attack brief
The Sabre should have the next step ready before bringing the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles into range.
Disappear
Lower the signature again after contact
During work with the Sabre, breaking line of sight and controlling emissions help the ship recover its stealth advantage instead of remaining an ordinary visible fighter.
Low-signature details
A closer look at how the Sabre controls a target
The Sabre uses its low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles to change an encounter, backed by the sensors, timing, and conventional systems needed to exploit the result.
01Equipment Stowage
The Sabre has an external 0.25 SCU storage unit and includes a dedicated gun rack.
02Sabre's conventional armament
It can exert a significant influence, attributed to its four Size 3 gun hardpoints and racks built to carry four Size 3 missiles.
03Sabre sensor picture
Identification and range information help the Sabre use the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles on the correct contact.
04Sabre's specialist controls
For the Sabre, dedicated controls keep the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles accessible without hiding the flight and defensive information the crew still needs.
Crew and operation
The Sabre's pilot manages exposure as carefully as weapons
Power state, emissions, route, target choice, and the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles determine how long the ship can remain difficult to detect.
People behind the systems
Emissions Contact Exposure
Inside the Sabre: the quiet approach exists to create one useful opportunity
Stealth gives the Sabre information and initiative. The pilot needs to decide what that advantage is for before active systems and weapons reveal the ship.
Set the signature before reaching sensor range
For the Sabre, reduced signatures and combat systems reward patient contact management rather than a prolonged visible brawl.
Use the quiet approach to learn first in daily operation
Aboard the Sabre, sensors and communication help the crew apply the low-signature systems, four Size 3 guns, and four Size 3 missiles to the correct ship and report what has changed.
Keep the active part of the job brief
After the Sabre acts, line of sight, power choices, and route planning help it avoid remaining an ordinary visible target.
