Development

The Eclipse's concept is designed by StarCitizen:Gavin Rothery (Freelance Conceptist) in collaboration with StarCitizen:Paul Jones (Art Director) in StarCitizen:Foundry 42 UK.<ref name="jumppoint">StarCitizen:Gavin Rothery, StarCitizen:David Ladyman and StarCitizen:Ben Lesnick, Work in Progress: Eclipse, Jump Point, vol. 5, no. 5, pp. 3-40, 2017-05-19.</ref> The ship is brought into engine by StarCitizen:Joe Neville (Senior Vehicle Artist) in Foundry 42 UK with contributions from StarCitizen:Corentin Billemont (Systems Designer).<ref name="shipshape">Ship Shape: Aegis Eclipse</ref> The ship was first revealed in 2017-05-19 in the Template:Link RSI.

Design brief

<tabber>

Aims & Aesthetics=
Aims
  • The most advanced stealth bomber available
  • Stealthier than the StarCitizen:Hornet Ghost or StarCitizen:Sabre. A bomber with a small, potent payload
  • Not a very competent dogfighter. Armed with weapons for self-defence, but relies on stealth. Not very agile
Aesthetic The AEGIS bomber should combine elements of Aegis's rounded aesthetic, and the design elements of iconic stealth ships.
  • A smooth shape running the width and length of the ship like an aerowing
  • Engines and intakes that are moulded to be unobtrusive from the body profile
  • Missiles, bombs, weapons stored internally on the ship so as to reduce its profile; flaps and bays open for their use

|-|

Approximate statistics=
Approximate statistics
Length ~22 meters The ship has been discussed to be approximately the size of a StarCitizen:Gladiator. For maximum compatibility it should be able to fit inside an Idris, so should be 25m wide max.
Mass 17,000 kg Being an advanced stealth ship, the size and shape of the ship is kept to a smooth, minimalist nature, which will also help keep its weight down a little.
Crew 1 This is a single seater bomber.
Engine 2 Twin engines, as they would produce less heat together than one larger engine. A central torpedo bay also would restrict the ability for it to have one engine.
Thrusters 8 x Joint Thrusters 4 x top, 4 x bottom with two top and bottom on the front, and two top and bottom at the rear.
Power Plants 1 x Small The ship was suggested to run with small components, which should help to keep its signature down.
Weapon Hardpoints 2 x Size 2 Weapons Ballistic Gatling weapons to be used for short, brutal engagements. However, the Eclipse is not a dogfighter and isn't armed for protracted engagements. Weapons should fit inside the wings and have flaps open during flight/use.
Missile Hardpoints 3 x Size 9 Torpedoes Three size 9 torpedoes are stored inside the ship. A central hatch similar to the Retaliator's opens for them to be fired.
Shield 2 x Small (front/back) The ship is lightly armoured, relying on its stealth capabilities for quick, precise strikes
Armour Small As above. However, its armour should have enhanced scanning/detection reducing properties similar to the Hornet Ghost.

Metric & Templates=
Metric & Templates
A list of all components, templates and measurements that the concept artist needs to adhere to.
Animation Templates Seat template AEGIS Avenger-style dual flight stick setup
Enter/exit animation for the ship Ladder (side cockpit), Same as the StarCitizen:Avenger Warlock
Enter/exit animation for the seat + ship Avenger Warlock entry/exit
Ship Components Components that need to be accessible behind walls or floor panels, or have the interior built around them:
Power Plants 1 Small (0.5m x 0.75m x 0.5m)
Shield Generator 2 Small (0.25m x 0.75m x 0.25m)
Avionics 1 Small (0.75m x 0.5m x 0.375m)
Coolers 2 Small (0.5m x 0.75m x 0.5m)
Gravity Generator None
Jump Drive 1 Small (0.5m x 0.75m x 0.5m)
Life Support 1 Small (0.5m x 0.5m x 0.5m)
Radar 1 Small (0.5m x 0.5m x 0.25m)
Components that don't need to be accessed but are somewhere on/inside the ship:
Fuel Tanks 1 Medium (1m x 2m x 1m)
Internal fixed weapons:
Ballistic Weapons S2 x 2 (3m x 0.625m x 0.625m)
Torpedo Bay S9 x 1 (10m x 4m x 2.5m)

Contains 3 torpedoes stored horizontally side-by-side Individual torpedo size 9m x 0.9m x 0.9m Same torpedo size as the Retaliator

|-|

Requirements=
Requirements
Cockpit Accessed via ladder on the nose of the ship like the Avenger Warlock.
Wing Weapon Mounts

Weapons stored on interior of the wings; do not gimbal.

Flaps on wings should open during flight so weapon can be fired.

When closed they should blend in with the rest of the ship's wing profile.

Torpedo Bay Internal torpedo bay with room to store three Retaliator-type torpedoes
  • Torpedo size individually 9.0m x 0.9m x 0.9m

Torpedo bay will be housed in the mid/rear of the ship, the underside will open, allowing them to be fired out.

Torpedoes will be housed side by side, allowing the ship to maintain a fairly sleek profile.

Bespoke mount for the hull of the Eclipse

Ship Size Most Stealth ships are considerably wider than they are long. The Eclipse will be able to have a wingspan only slightly longer than its length if it is to fit inside an Idris. 22m x 25m leaves it as long as a Gladiator, and slightly wider.
