Razor EX specifications
Advocacy stealth inside a fast, compact airframe
The EX began as a specialist design for UEE Advocacy surveillance and extraction work. It gives up some of the standard Razor's outright racing speed in exchange for a lower signature, but remains fast and maneuverable enough to use discretion rather than armor as its first line of protection.
Watch the target without advertising the observer
This is not a fighter disguised as a racer. Its value comes from reaching a good observation point, staying less visible while the pilot gathers information, and retaining enough speed to make a clean departure when the job is done.
Development note: The Razor EX is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 3.1.0. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
The Razor EX surveillance conversion
Signature-reducing construction supports the quiet approach, Razor-derived handling helps the pilot work in confined or fast-moving situations, and a light emergency armament provides an option when avoiding signal is no longer possible.
The EX was originally developed for the UEE Advocacy, giving the variant a clear purpose beyond the Razor family's racing roots.
It is slower than the standard Razor, but the compact airframe remains fast and maneuverable when the pilot needs to reposition or leave.
A pair of Size 2 gun hardpoints gives the pilot a practical defensive response if the quiet approach fails.
The Razor EX's scanner position and field of view determine which signals can be observed without turning the whole mission into a close pass.
Time, location, heading, and environmental conditions stay attached to the Razor EX's readings so another crew can interpret them.
The Razor EX stealth package
Signature-reducing materials and stealth components help keep the Razor EX off hostile scanners during surveillance and extraction work.
Stealth package
Use the stealth package to resolve signals and hazards before nearby ships enters the same area.
Attach location, heading, time, and conditions to the Razor EX's findings around the stealth package.
Send the report while the information from the stealth package can still change the wider plan.
Gathering information without advertising its presence
The Razor EX controls exposure before it controls the fight, keeping emissions low until the stealth package can be used without wasting the quiet approach.
-
Plan the approach around the information needed
Power, shields, cooling, and active systems should match how quietly the Razor EX needs to approach.
-
Bring stealth package into effective sensor range
Aboard the Razor EX, target position, support, and movement are the advantage earned by staying difficult to detect.
-
Bring the stealth package into the briefest exposure
The Razor EX's operator uses the stealth package to identify signals, routes, and hazards before nearby ships commits to the same area.
-
Bring the collected data home
For the Razor EX, breaking line of sight and controlling emissions help the ship recover its stealth advantage instead of remaining an ordinary visible fighter.
Low signature, quick response, and enough firepower for an emergency
The EX is built to gather information or recover someone without lingering. Its two Size 2 gun mounts and two Size 1 missiles are defensive tools, not the reason to choose the ship.
A pair of Size 1 missiles adds a small reserve of ranged firepower without turning the EX into a dedicated combat ship.
One pilot manages flight, sensors, signature control, and the light weapon package from a small, focused cockpit.
Range, identity, heading, and local conditions give the Razor EX a report nearby ships can use.
The Razor EX must reach effective sensor range without turning observation into an avoidable fight.
One pilot manages the quiet approach and the fast departure
The Razor EX puts flight, sensors, signature control, and light defensive weapons in one compact cockpit. The pilot's attention is better spent remaining difficult to detect than trying to manage a prolonged fight.
Keep the mission simple enough for one seat
A clear observation goal and departure route let the pilot concentrate on the information that matters instead of collecting everything in reach of the sensors.
Set the EX's power and emissions early, before nearby sensors begin looking for it.
The pilot should know what must be seen or confirmed and how long the ship can remain nearby without increasing risk.
The EX retains enough speed and maneuverability to end the observation quickly without relying on heavy armor or a large weapon package.
