Mustang Delta specifications
The Mustang Delta's combat role
The Mustang Delta puts the gun battery and the underwing rocket pods in a fast fighter made to engage other agile craft. Its light protection rewards short attacks and constant awareness. A distinctive characteristic of the Delta is its Cavalry class Mass Reduction armor, which serves to reduce the ship's cross-sectional signature, enabling it to engage its targets sooner before they become aware of the attack.
Keep the weapons working under pressure
The Mustang Delta gives one pilot the agility and direct weapon control needed to fight light and medium fighters.
Development note: The Mustang Delta is flight ready and entered the live game in Patch V1.0.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
Mustang Delta's combat systems
The main guns and the unguided rockets turn the Mustang Delta into a direct combat variant while the light Mustang frame keeps it quick and responsive.
Cavalry-class mass-reduction armor lowers the Mustang Delta's cross-section, helping it approach before the target detects the attack.
A remote nose turret and two wing mounts give the pilot four Size 2 guns for direct fire.
Flight controls, target data, weapon status, and damage warnings share one pilot's display.
The crew monitors power draw and heat when several major systems are working together.
The Mustang Delta's combat loadout
A remote nose turret and two wing mounts give the pilot the direct-fire weapons. Two underwing rocket pods add the rocket load.
Four Size 2 guns and thirty-six Size 1 rockets
The Mustang Delta is at its best when the gun battery and thirty-six Size 1 rockets can attack another fighter without giving up its mobility.
A light frame survives by changing the target's aim while the main guns and thirty-six Size 1 rockets remain ready for a clear chance to fire.
The pilot keeps the Mustang Deltan effective by tracking its condition and the threats outside the current target.
Using agility to create firing opportunities
A complete sortie in the Mustang Delta connects target choice, movement, the main guns and the unguided rockets, and an honest check of the ship before the next engagement.
-
Let the Mustang Delta's light frame guide target choice
The Mustang Delta gives up heavy protection for response and a small profile, so its best targets are other agile craft.
-
Use quick response instead of relying on shields
A small profile helps only while the Mustang Delta continues changing the target's aim.
-
Use the Mustang Delta against lightly protected targets
The Mustang Delta's movement and weapon range decide how long the direct-fire weapons and the rocket load can stay on target.
-
Decide whether the Mustang Delta still suits the fight
The Mustang Delta's pilot uses the space after an attack to check damage, ammunition, and any new threat before turning back.
Weapons and controls aboard the Mustang Delta
The Mustang Delta combines its direct-fire weapons and thirty-six Size 1 rockets with the handling, protection, and targeting systems needed for its combat role.
Two underwing rocket pods each carry eighteen Size 1 rockets, adding thirty-six unguided shots to the Delta's four guns.
The Delta has an additional 0.9 SCU of internal storage, which can be accessed through interaction with the front ladder.
For the Mustang Delta, responsive handling helps the pilot keep the gun battery on target through tight turns.
Aboard the Mustang Delta, sensors and weapon controls help the pilot identify a suitable target and keep the gun battery aimed at it.
Speed is the Mustang Delta's first layer of defense
The pilot handles the Mustang Delta's flight, the gun battery and the underwing rocket pods, shields, and threat awareness from one cockpit. The Mustang Delta's speed creates opportunities, but the pilot still needs a clear plan before target.
The Mustang Delta wins time through movement
A light fighter earns results through repeated control, not durability. The Mustang Delta's pilot watches shields, ammunition, and nearby threats while using movement to keep the fight manageable.
Quick direction changes help the Mustang Delta stay with another small craft long enough to use the main guns and the unguided rockets effectively.
The pilot chooses a fighting distance that keeps the direct-fire weapons and the rocket load effective and the Mustang Delta difficult to hit.
The Mustang Delta survives longer when its pilot notices failing protection before it becomes a loss of control.
