Today we discuss the flexible and reliable backbone of the UEE Navy, the Aegis Javelin. Over 3 generations of ships it has proven to be a bulwark against pirates and Vanduul alike with it's speed, firepower, and modularity. This includes the famous UEES War Hammer, the shield of the Stanton System.

Imagine holding against a Vanduul swarm with the CDF when the UEE Navy jumps in with this and a full escort.

im always so hooked when i listen to the way you preset star citizens lore

Thanks for watching!

So interesting, loved this detail about my favourite Star Citizen ship! Thank you for researching and sharing this one!

I feel unreasonably proud of "our" Warhammer. Seriously, I've visited it twice and fought alongside it against two XenoThreat incursions, yet it feels as if it was "my" flagship somehow. 07

Interesting that we hear so much about the modular nature of the Javelin in recent times - makes you wonder about the possibilities

@kaejuka6249 Год назад

I just hope my org is able to put together a big fleet with one of these spearheading the whole thing. A Javelin, a few hammerheads, and a bunch of vanguards and Gladiuses (Gladi?), redeemers, Sabres, retaliators, and maybe an Idris or two. It would take a hell of a lot of manpower, and probably very overkill for most things, but goddammit it would be epic to have it all flying in formation or something.

no such thing as overkill against the Vandul or at Jumptown

@Tom--Ace Год назад

As a javelin owner, it seems only you guys are salty! I fully expect it being expensive to pull the ship out and it being an occassion that you have to save up for with other ships making you money. Perhaps something you do with an org for a specific mission, like a vanduul raid. I don't think many javelin owners expect to be able to just float around in the ship with no cost, in fact, I think the whole idea is that it's supposed to be a challenge!

@tevarinvagabond1192 Год назад

@@Tom--Ace You must not have ever gone on Spectrum, but that's a good thing. There is a VERY prevalent amount of people that demand to solo ships Connie sized and bigger, it's not an insignificant number of people. Yes, they're very ignorant of the game and where it is going, but that doesn't mean they are out there. I almost pity the people that bought these massive fleets yet aren't in orgs or have no friends, because they'll be very much sorry that they did

@Phanto5692 Год назад

I think designing the new generation of Javelin would make for a good contest, another "The next great starship design." Maybe the frame could be modified somewhat to distinguish military Javelin from those sold to civilians/citizens. I would've liked to see more stats on the gen 3 Javelin such as crew compliment and traveling capabilities.

@billhille6715 Год назад

that clip with all the javelins and idris' fighting was super cool, anyone know where that is from?

@evobsm2328 9 месяцев назад

I hope we get some vanduul capital ships to fight against instead of human made ones. would make it so much cooler. I gues it would make production of them faster since we wont be able to walk around in them etc.

@Synthmilk Год назад

Has CIG's writing team written anything to match the huge number of Javelin's sold to players, vs the small number of Javelin's we've seen in cinematics or on tour during Fleet Week?

@TheAstroHistorian Год назад

Javelins are super common in the verse and the ones sold to players are all mothballed ones. The one we have been touring is the same one every year, the UEES War Hammer. So I don't quite know what the question is, but yes the lore team accounts for the massive number of them out there. They are so common they are often the anchor of a battlegroup over the Bengal.

Easy to forget how different Javelins could be. Only having one at the moment. I can't imagine the game is complete torture to make. probably much more the opposite. Also, still missing XT. :\

@Yggdrasil92 Год назад

The videos you make are really good, but I have to correct you on one thing. If you take a cruiser or battle cruiser (which is really just a cruiser that is more heavily armed) from the present or even past time. Whereby the areas of operation and armament has changed greatly over time, then they have one thing in common whereby earlier more important than today, they could fight any opponent who could catch up with you and drive away from all other types of ships. So for me it is wrong to say cruisers or battlecruisers are slow. Of course, these data, doctrines from seafaring and Star Citizen is something else again.

@TheAstroHistorian Год назад

Based on the star citizen lore cruisers are slow and large. If transposed to our current ships IRL the Javelin would be a Cruiser class but the UEE Cruiser and Battleship classes are massive sizes in comparison. Effectively Cruisers are designed as more flexible battleships bristling with guns and are faster but lack armor, while Battleships are heavy, big, slow, and devastating. AFAIK Cruisers and Battleships have been phased out of the UEE Navy because they were more vulnerable to faster hit and run attacks and weren't worth the upkeep cost when you could build and run a Javelin squadron for the same cost.

@Yggdrasil92 Год назад

@@TheAstroHistorian Good to know. Thanks for the detailed infos.

@antonious1685 Год назад

you are basing this on ships in water vs ships in space, idk maybe a larger ships top speed in space would be higher than a fighter, but take more time to speed up.

@RobertP-zk8vh 5 месяцев назад

love the game and the ships but the lore saying that they keep using the same design for hundreds of years make no sense you would think a navy would design new ships every 50 years or so to meet demands or add in better tech. I would prefer to serve on a cruiser or battleship lol

@scav8myass336 Год назад

More origin ships next? I love the 400i and would like to see one of these for it

@TheAstroHistorian Год назад

I'm looking into doing some of them, did one for the M50 that did alright. There isn't a lot of lore for most Origin ships right now though.

@scav8myass336 Год назад

@TheAstroHistorian that would be awesome. I just grinded up to the 350r and fully upgraded it.. next step is 400i. I'm pretty partial to Origin so far
