Come riscattare navi, CCU, paint e oggetti di Star Citizen
Per accettare questo oggetto, devi avere un account su robertsspaceindustries.com. Per accedere a Star Citizen, è necessario possedere un game package.
Tutti gli ordini verranno inviati all’indirizzo email inserito al momento del checkout. Riceverai un’email da no-reply@robertsspaceindustries.com con oggetto “Someone sent you a gift from Roberts Space Industries”.
Apri l’email e clicca sul pulsante blu “Claim Gift” per riscattare il tuo ordine.
Se vuoi ricevere l’ordine su un account diverso da quello collegato all’email fornita, ti basta accedere all’account RSI corretto in un’altra scheda prima di riscattare l’oggetto. Ti consigliamo di aggiornare la pagina RSI per assicurarti di essere connesso all’account giusto.
Se stai acquistando questo oggetto come regalo, clicca con il tasto destro sul pulsante blu “Claim Gift” e copia l’indirizzo del link. Assicurati di essere uscito dal tuo account RSI, così da non riscattare accidentalmente il regalo sul tuo account.
Istruzioni di sicurezza importanti
ATTENZIONE: tutte le navi e gli oggetti possono essere regalati una sola volta. Una volta riscattato, l’oggetto — nave, CCU, paint, armatura, arma o altro item — sarà collegato in modo permanente all’account che lo ha accettato.
Per questo motivo, prima di riscattare l’email regalo, assicurati di essere connesso allo specifico account RSI su cui vuoi ricevere l’oggetto, usando lo stesso browser.
Non siamo responsabili se l’oggetto viene riscattato sull’account RSI sbagliato.
Come applicare una CCU (Ship Upgrade)
Se hai acquistato una Cross Chassis Upgrade (CCU) per trasformare una nave in un’altra, segui questi passaggi:
Riscatta la CCU
Segui i passaggi di consegna indicati sopra per aggiungere la CCU al tuo RSI Hangar.
Trova la CCU nel tuo hangar
Vai nella sezione “My Hangar” sul sito RSI e cerca la CCU che hai ricevuto.
Applica l’upgrade
Clicca sulla freccia accanto alla CCU per aprire i dettagli.
Poi clicca sul pulsante “Apply Upgrade”.
Seleziona la “Source Ship”, cioè la nave di partenza che vuoi usare per l’upgrade, e inserisci la password del tuo account RSI per completare l’operazione.
Nota importante
L’assicurazione, come ad esempio LTI, e gli eventuali bonus della nave base verranno trasferiti alla nuova nave dopo l’upgrade.
In alcuni casi, per passare da una nave di valore più basso a una nave di valore più alto, l’upgrade può essere composto da più CCU in sequenza.
Ad esempio: se acquisti un upgrade da Merchantman a Polaris, potremmo inviarti due CCU: una da Merchantman a Hammerhead e una da Hammerhead a Polaris.
Più grande è la differenza di prezzo tra la nave di partenza e quella finale, maggiore potrebbe essere il numero di CCU che riceverai.

Domande frequenti
Quanto tempo richiede di solito la consegna?
Gli ordini di navi, CCU, paint e item di Star Citizen vengono solitamente consegnati entro 20–30 minuti.
In rari casi, la consegna può richiedere fino a 12 ore a causa del volume degli ordini, dei limiti RSI per l’invio dei gift, dello stato dell’account o di eventuali verifiche manuali necessarie.
Nella maggior parte dei casi, cerchiamo di non superare le 12 ore per la consegna delle navi, salvo problemi eccezionali come limitazioni del sistema RSI, restrizioni dell’account o verifiche richieste al cliente.
Il mio ordine della nave è protetto?
Sì. Sicurezza e affidabilità sono tra le nostre priorità principali.
Tutte le navi vendute da LTI Hangar provengono dal nostro stock diretto, senza seller esterni o fornitori terzi sconosciuti.
Ogni ordine viene gestito con registri di consegna chiari, così il processo può essere verificato e tracciato in caso di bisogno di supporto.
Offriamo inoltre una protezione post-vendita di 6 mesi per eventuali problemi idonei legati alla consegna.
Questo controllo tramite stock diretto, insieme alla consegna tracciabile e alla protezione post-vendita, è uno dei motivi per cui molti clienti scelgono LTI Hangar per acquistare navi Star Citizen in modo più sicuro.
Che cos’è la protezione post-vendita di 6 mesi? Perché altri marketplace non possono offrirla?
Nel rarissimo caso in cui si verifichi un problema con un item durante la consegna o entro 6 mesi dal completamento della consegna, effettueremo una verifica.
Se dalla verifica risulta che il problema è stato causato da un nostro errore, forniremo una sostituzione oppure un rimborso.
Per aiutarci a controllare il caso in modo accurato, potremmo chiederti di fornirci prove rilevanti, come screenshot del tuo RSI Hangar, dettagli dell’ordine e registri dell’RSI Hangar Log.
L’RSI Hangar Log può aiutare a tracciare lo stato e la cronologia di ogni nave, incluso se l’item è stato riscattato, scambiato, meltato, trasferito o modificato in altro modo dopo la consegna.
Esamineremo le prove fornite per determinare la causa del problema.
Questo livello di protezione non è comunemente offerto da molti marketplace di terze parti, perché spesso si affidano a seller esterni o a fonti di stock miste.
Su LTI Hangar, invece, tutte le navi provengono dal nostro stock diretto e ogni ordine dispone di registri di consegna chiari. Questo ci permette di offrire un supporto più sicuro, tracciabile e affidabile.
Posso richiedere un rimborso dopo aver riscattato una nave, CCU, paint o item?
Una volta che l’RSI Gift è stato riscattato, la nave, CCU, paint o item viene collegato all’account RSI che lo ha ricevuto.
A causa delle limitazioni del sistema di gifting di Star Citizen, un item già riscattato normalmente non può essere regalato di nuovo, restituito, annullato o riconsegnato.
Per questo motivo, gli item già riscattati normalmente non sono idonei alla cancellazione o al rimborso.
Una correzione, sostituzione o rimborso può essere fornito solo se confermiamo che il problema è stato causato da noi, ad esempio l’invio di un item sbagliato, un errore nella consegna dell’ordine o un altro problema di consegna verificato e causato dal nostro lato.
Prima di riscattare l’RSI Gift, assicurati di essere connesso all’account RSI corretto.
Una volta che il gift viene riscattato sull’account sbagliato, normalmente non può essere spostato su un altro account.
Cosa succede se viene consegnata la nave, CCU, paint o item sbagliato?
Se confermiamo che l’item sbagliato è stato consegnato a causa di un nostro errore, esamineremo il caso e forniremo una correzione, una sostituzione o un rimborso, ove applicabile.
Ti invitiamo a contattarci fornendo il numero d’ordine, l’email usata al checkout e screenshot chiari del tuo RSI Hangar.
Perché la nave Star Citizen che ho ricevuto mostra un nome diverso?
Una Standalone CCU’ed è una nave o un veicolo completo. Non è un upgrade!
“CCU’ed” significa semplicemente che la nave o il veicolo è stato creato partendo da un modello più piccolo e facendo upgrade fino a quello che stai acquistando.
Tieni presente che, nell’email regalo RSI, potrebbe comparire solo il nome della nave usata come base per l’upgrade. È normale, non devi preoccuparti: la nave effettiva che vedrai nel tuo hangar sarà esattamente quella che hai ordinato.
Ad esempio, ecco come appare una Polaris CCU’ed nell’hangar sul sito RSI.

Anvil Hurricane Standalone Ship Gameplay Guide
The Anvil Hurricane is a Flight Ready compact two-seat heavy fighter built for Star Citizen players who want pilot-and-gunner teamwork, high short-window gun pressure, and a high-risk combat style. It is not a cargo ship, stealth fighter, long-range patrol ship, solo dogfighter, bomber, or luxury combat craft. The Hurricane is best understood as a glass hammer: small, dangerous, heavily armed, and much more useful when both seats are filled.
Official RSI material describes the Hurricane as a ship that is faster than it is nimble, designed to rush in, hit hard, and then disengage instead of staying in a turning dogfight. RSI also says the Hurricane is at its best with a coordinated pilot and turret gunner, because the pilot focuses on survival and positioning while the gunner keeps pressure on the target.
The safest product-page positioning is simple:
The Hurricane is the Anvil fighter you choose when you have a reliable gunner and want high short-window damage — not when you want solo comfort, cargo utility, or long-range endurance.
Build Your Anvil Fighter Fleet with the Hurricane
The Hurricane is a good choice for players who want a compact combat ship that becomes much more useful with two players. If you are looking to acquire this Anvil heavy fighter, you can explore our available options in the Star Citizen Ships and Vehicles Collection.
Hurricane Key Specifications
| Specification | Anvil Hurricane | Gameplay Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Manufacturer | Anvil Aerospace | Human military fighter manufacturer with clear fighter and combat identity. |
| Role | Heavy Fighter | Current reference data lists the Hurricane as a heavy fighter, despite its small frame. |
| Status | Flight Ready | Current reference data lists the Hurricane as Flight Ready, with Flight Ready history from Alpha 3.2.0. |
| Crew | 2 / pilot + turret gunner focus | The Hurricane can be flown solo, but its real value depends heavily on having a coordinated gunner. |
| Cargo | 0 SCU combat-only reference | No cargo, box-running, trade, exploration, or daily utility role; this is a focused combat ship. |
| Dimensions | 22m length / 18.2m width / 6m height | Compact heavy fighter footprint with large gun output. |
| Current SCM / Max Speed Reference | 214 m/s SCM / 1,125 m/s max | Current live reference values; fighter balance can change by patch. |
| Pilot Weapons | 2× Size 4 guns current reference | Heavy forward pressure controlled by the pilot. |
| Manned Turret | 4× Size 3 guns current reference | Main reason the Hurricane becomes dangerous with a gunner. |
| Missiles | 4× Size 2 missiles current reference | Small missile layer; guns define the ship more than missiles. |
| Core Gameplay | Two-seat burst damage, attack runs, target focus, group fighter support | Best for coordinated short-window damage and target pressure, not prolonged solo dogfighting or long-range patrol. |
Note: Star Citizen weapon balance, turret behavior, armor, shields, power management, flight model, and fighter matchups can change between patches. Treat exact values as current gameplay-reference information rather than permanent final numbers.
What Makes the Hurricane Valuable?
The Hurricane is valuable because it concentrates a lot of firepower into a very small combat frame. RSI’s Q&A describes the ship as having high performance potential with significant risk management as the price of entry. That is the best way to explain the ship to buyers: it can hit very hard, but it does not forgive careless flying.
The Hurricane is not the safest fighter. It is the fighter you bring when two players want to apply heavy pressure before the target can properly respond.
That is the core buyer message. The Hurricane is not a flexible daily ship. It is a focused combat tool.
Two-Seat Heavy Fighter Gameplay Role
The Hurricane’s main role is coordinated two-seat combat. The pilot chooses the attack angle, controls the ship’s movement, and keeps the Hurricane alive. The turret gunner adds the pressure that makes the ship dangerous.
In practical gameplay, the Hurricane fits several roles:
| Gameplay Use | Why the Hurricane Fits |
|---|---|
| Two-player combat | The pilot and gunner both have meaningful jobs. |
| Attack runs | RSI describes the Hurricane as suited to rushing in, hitting hard, and regrouping. |
| Focused target pressure | The ship is built around concentrated firepower rather than long defensive staying power. |
| Fleet fighter support | It works better with allies than when isolated. |
| Gunship-style strafing | RSI notes that the turret can be useful for strafing planetside targets or suppressing enemies while the pilot focuses on flying. |
| High-risk PvP / PvE combat | Useful when the crew picks targets carefully and avoids bad engagements. |
The Hurricane should be described as a two-seat burst-damage fighter, not a simple solo dogfighter.
Glass Hammer Combat Identity
RSI’s Q&A directly explains the Hurricane’s “glass cannon” or “glass hammer” identity: high damage output at the cost of low durability. The same answer says the Hurricane is most effective with other ships and that an isolated Hurricane becomes much more vulnerable.
The Hurricane can hit above its size, but it survives by timing, teamwork, and disengagement — not by soaking damage.
This is important for customer expectations. The Hurricane should not be sold like a Vanguard or Scorpius that can stay in a fight comfortably. It is much more about focused aggression.
Pilot and Gunner Teamwork
The Hurricane’s value depends heavily on crew coordination. RSI says the ship shines best with a dual crew: the pilot handles demanding maneuvers, situational awareness, and power management, while the gunner keeps pressure on the target and can help with radar and missile locks.
A practical Hurricane crew may include:
| Crew Role | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Pilot | Controls approach, escape, positioning, and main forward weapons. |
| Turret Gunner | Keeps pressure on the target and covers angles the pilot cannot. |
| Escort Wing | Helps prevent the Hurricane from being isolated. |
| Target Caller | Chooses which enemy should be pressured first. |
| Support Ship | Helps the Hurricane disengage, repair, or rearm after hard fights. |
The Hurricane is not just a fighter with a spare seat. It is a fighter where the second player is the reason the ship exists.
A practical Hurricane fight should feel like two players trying to create a short damage window, not one pilot trying to win a long solo duel. The pilot has to choose the approach, keep the ship from being isolated, and break away before the Hurricane takes too much return fire. The gunner is responsible for keeping pressure on the target when the pilot turns, overshoots, or resets the attack angle. In real use, the Hurricane rewards crews who communicate clearly, call targets quickly, and disengage at the right time. It feels dangerous when pilot and gunner act together, but much less forgiving when flown alone or trapped in a messy fight.
Weapon Layout and Damage Pressure
Current reference data lists the Hurricane with 2× Size 4 pilot guns, a manned turret carrying 4× Size 3 guns, and 4× Size 2 missiles. That gives the ship a very direct damage profile: the pilot brings heavy forward guns, while the gunner brings the main turret pressure.
| Weapon Layer | Gameplay Meaning |
|---|---|
| 2× S4 pilot guns | Heavy forward attack power for the pilot. |
| 4× S3 turret guns | Main reason the Hurricane is dangerous with a gunner. |
| 4× S2 missiles | Light missile support, not the ship’s defining feature. |
The Hurricane is a gun platform first. Missiles support the fight, but Coordinated gunfire is the reason to buy it.
Attack Runs, Not Turning Fights
The Hurricane is not designed to sit in a prolonged turning dogfight. RSI says it is faster than it is nimble and warns that trying to keep pace in the middle of the fray does not play to the Hurricane’s strengths. RSI also frames it as a ship that picks a target, pressures it quickly, and repeats.
A practical buyer explanation:
The Hurricane wants clean attack windows. It does not want messy, extended fights where every enemy can focus it.
This gives the ship a very clear style:
- approach fast,
- focus fire,
- break away,
- reset,
- repeat with allies.
That is why the Hurricane feels different from a Gladius, Hornet, or Sabre.
Range and Endurance Expectations
The Hurricane is not a long-range patrol fighter like the Vanguard. RSI’s Q&A describes it as more mid-range, closer to Gladius than Vanguard, with enough range to find trouble but not the deep-space endurance profile of a dedicated long-range heavy fighter.
The Hurricane has enough range for combat operations, but it is not the ship you choose for deep-space patrol or long independent deployments.
Players who want long-range endurance should compare Vanguard Warden, Guardian, or Defender.
Power Management and Loadout Expectations
RSI’s Hurricane Q&A says the ship is understocked in power by modern standards, meaning pilots need to make power-management choices between thrusters, shields, and weapons. It also says ballistic weapons are expected to be a natural loadout direction because they reduce energy demand, while energy weapons can be used but create more pressure on the ship’s power resources.
The Hurricane rewards crews who understand loadouts and power management, not players who expect every system to run comfortably at maximum output.
This makes the ship more interesting but also more demanding.
Solo Gameplay Expectations
The Hurricane can be flown solo, but solo use misses the point. RSI says a solo Hurricane pilot will naturally focus firepower forward, while the ship still shines best with two crew.
Solo Hurricane ownership is possible, but buying a Hurricane for solo play is like buying half of the ship’s real value.
Solo pilots who want strong fighter performance may prefer F7A Hornet Mk II, Gladius, Sabre, Mirai Guardian, Vanguard Warden, or F8C Lightning. The Hurricane is much more easy to recommend when the buyer has a regular gunner.
Cargo and Utility Expectations
The Hurricane has 0 SCU and no meaningful utility role. It is not for box missions, trade, exploration, medical support, towing, mining, salvage, or daily logistics. Its job is combat.
Buy the Hurricane for firepower, not convenience.
If the buyer wants everyday usefulness, a Cutlass Black, C1 Spirit, Zeus CL, Taurus, or Avenger Titan makes more sense.
Direct Vehicle Comparisons
Hurricane vs Scorpius
This is one of the most important comparisons because both are two-seat fighters. Choose the Hurricane if you want compact damage with a trusted gunner. Choose the Scorpius if you want a more flexible two-seat heavy fighter.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Compact two-seat burst damage | Smaller, more glass-hammer focused, less forgiving. |
| RSI Scorpius | Two-seat heavy fighter with flexible turret coverage | More modern turret-fighter feel and broader utility. |
Hurricane vs Super Hornet Mk II & F7A Hornet Mk II
The Super Hornet Mk II is a two-seat Hornet, while the F7A Mk II is a solo military Hornet.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Pilot + gunner teamwork and attack runs | More specialized turret-damage platform and glass-hammer identity. |
| Super Hornet Mk II | Two-seat Hornet teamwork | More conventional Anvil fighter layout and balanced identity. |
| F7A Hornet Mk II | Solo military fighter gameplay | Better if the buyer wants all core firepower under one pilot. |
Choose the Super Hornet Mk II if you want a classic two-seat fighter. Choose the F7A Hornet Mk II if you usually fly alone. Choose the Hurricane if you want the more specialized two-seat damage ship with a reliable gunner.
Hurricane vs Hornet
RSI’s Q&A gives a useful comparison: the Hornet is like a boxer that can trade hits, while the Hurricane believes combat should be shorter — pick a target, pressure it, and move on.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | High-risk target pressure | Hits hard but does not want prolonged trading. |
| Hornet | More traditional medium-fighter combat | Better if the buyer wants a tougher, more conventional fighter that can trade. |
Choose the Hornet if you want a fighter that can trade hits. Choose the Hurricane if you want a fighter that tries to end the trade quickly.
Hurricane vs Gladius & Sabre
The Gladius is a light dogfighter, while the Sabre is stealth / attack oriented. RSI’s Hurricane Q&A says the Hurricane does not get the natural stealth advantages of a ship like the Sabre.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Two-seat firepower and attack runs | Much more dependent on teamwork, turret focus, and target selection. |
| Aegis Gladius | Solo light-fighter dogfighting | Better for pilots who want agility and solo control. |
| Aegis Sabre | Stealthier attack-fighter gameplay | Better if the buyer wants lower-signature style rather than coordinated burst pressure. |
Choose the Gladius for solo dogfighting. Choose the Sabre if you want stealth flavor. Choose the Hurricane for direct, visible, two-player firepower.
Hurricane vs Vanguard Warden & Mirai Guardian
The Vanguard Warden is a human long-range heavy fighter, while the Guardian is a newer heavy fighter with stronger solo-pilot identity. RSI explicitly says the Hurricane is closer to the Gladius than the Vanguard in range.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Compact two-seat burst damage | More dangerous in a short window, but less durable and less long-range. More dependent on a gunner. |
| Aegis Vanguard Warden | Long-range heavy-fighter endurance | Better for patrol, travel comfort, durability, and staying power. |
| Mirai Guardian | Heavy solo firepower and range | Better if the buyer wants heavy fighter power mostly in the pilot's hands with fewer crew dependencies. |
Choose the Vanguard if you want endurance. Choose the Mirai Guardian if you want heavy solo firepower. Choose the Hurricane if you want compact, short-window two-player turret damage.
Hurricane vs Defender, Buccaneer & Ares
The Defender is a Banu long-range escort fighter, the Buccaneer is a scrappy solo light attacker, and the Ares variants are single-seat anti-large-target fighters.
| Ship | Best For | Main Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Two-seat fighter pressure against selected targets | More aggressive and short-window focused. Flexible against fighter-sized threats with a gunner. |
| Banu Defender | Long-range alien escort | Better for convoy escort, range, and Banu identity. |
| Drake Buccaneer | Solo aggressive light / medium fighter feel | More solo-friendly, Drake-styled, and built for scrappy solo attacking. |
| Ares Ion / Inferno | Anti-large-ship pressure | More specialized around big-target engagement rather than sub-capital focus. Built around the single-seat platforms Ares Ion and Ares Inferno. |
Choose the Defender for alien escort range. Choose the Drake Buccaneer if you want a scrappy solo attacker. Choose the Ares Ion or Ares Inferno if your target is large. Choose the Hurricane if your target is something your pilot and gunner can quickly pressure.
Combat, Profit, and Practical Expectations
The Hurricane is specialized. It should not be sold as a universal ship.
If the buyer wants:
- solo dogfighting, compare Gladius, F7A Mk II, Sabre, or F8C.
- two-player firepower, choose Hurricane, Scorpius, or Super Hornet.
- long-range heavy fighter use, compare Vanguard or Guardian.
- cargo or daily missions, choose a practical multi-role ship.
- stealth, compare Sabre or Eclipse.
- compact damage with a gunner, choose Hurricane.
The Hurricane is valuable because it does one job very aggressively, not because it replaces every fighter.
Explore Hurricane Upgrade Paths
If you prefer to build toward the Hurricane from another ship, you can view our Star Citizen Hurricane CCU Upgrades and plan a more flexible Anvil fighter, two-seat fighter, or heavy-fighter upgrade path over time.
For the Hurricane specifically, buyers should check whether the listing is standalone, upgraded, Warbond, store-credit, referral-related, or part of a package, because current reference data lists its normal sale availability as time-limited.
Hurricane vs Other Star Citizen Fighters
| Ship Fleet Option | Primary Core Role | Compared with Hurricane |
|---|---|---|
| Hurricane | Two-seat glass-hammer heavy fighter | Best for coordinated pilot + gunner burst damage. |
| Scorpius | Two-seat heavy fighter | More flexible turret-fighter feel; Hurricane is more compact and extreme. |
| Super Hornet Mk II | Two-seat Medium Fighter | More conventional Anvil fighter; Hurricane is more turret-damage focused. |
| F7A Hornet Mk II | Solo Military Medium Fighter | Better solo choice; Hurricane wants a gunner. |
| Hornet | Traditional Medium Fighter | Better for trading hits; Hurricane wants short fights. |
| Gladius | Light Dogfighter | Better solo agility; Hurricane has stronger two-seat damage. |
| Sabre | Stealth / Attack Fighter | More stealth flavor; Hurricane is direct firepower. |
| Vanguard Warden | Long-Range Heavy Fighter | Better endurance; Hurricane is shorter-range and more explosive. |
| Mirai Guardian | Heavy Fighter | More pilot-focused; Hurricane is more crew-dependent. |
| Defender | Alien Escort Fighter | Better range and escort flavor; Hurricane is pure damage pressure. |
| Buccaneer | Aggressive Drake Fighter | More solo-friendly; Hurricane is stronger with two players. |
Hurricane vs Scorpius
The Scorpius is better for players who want a more flexible two-seat heavy fighter with broader turret coverage and a more modern RSI feel. The Hurricane is better for players who want a smaller, more aggressive glass-hammer fighter built around pilot-and-gunner burst damage. Choose the Scorpius for flexibility. Choose the Hurricane for compact two-seat firepower.
Hurricane vs Super Hornet Mk II
The Super Hornet Mk II is better for players who want a more conventional two-seat Hornet with Anvil fighter identity and broader solo-friendly handling. The Hurricane is better for players who want the gunner to be central to the ship’s damage output. Choose the Super Hornet Mk II for a classic two-seat fighter. Choose the Hurricane for a more specialized turret-damage platform.
Hurricane vs F7A Hornet Mk II
The F7A Hornet Mk II is better for players who usually fly alone and want military Hornet firepower under one pilot. The Hurricane is better for players who have a reliable gunner and want coordinated two-seat damage. Choose the F7A Mk II for solo fighter control. Choose the Hurricane for pilot-and-gunner teamwork.
Hurricane vs Vanguard Warden
The Vanguard Warden is better for players who want long-range heavy-fighter endurance, durability, and patrol comfort. The Hurricane is better for players who want shorter-range, high-pressure two-seat combat in a smaller frame. Choose the Vanguard Warden for endurance. Choose the Hurricane for compact burst damage.
Hurricane Strengths and Limitations
| Strategic Strengths | Operational Limitations |
|---|---|
| High compact firepower. | Low durability compared with its damage output. |
| Useful two-player combat value. | Much less attractive if flown solo. |
| 4× S3 turret guns give the gunner real impact. | Requires communication and target discipline. |
| 2× S4 pilot guns add heavy forward pressure. | Pilot still needs to avoid prolonged turning fights. |
| Small heavy-fighter footprint. | Not a long-range Vanguard-style patrol fighter. |
| Good attack-run identity. | Can be punished badly if isolated. |
| Clear Anvil combat flavor. | No cargo, bed, interior comfort, exploration, or utility role. |
Who Should Buy the Hurricane?
The Hurricane is best for players who have a reliable gunner and want a compact ship with high damage output. It is especially suitable for Anvil fans, two-player combat crews, small fighter teams, PvE bounty pairs, PvP pilots who like coordinated attacks, and buyers who want a dangerous ship that feels different from normal solo fighters.
It is also a good choice for players who already own practical ships. The Hurricane works best as a fleet combat piece: cargo ships make money, daily ships handle errands, long-range ships travel, and the Hurricane comes out when two players want to focus on fighting.
Players who fly alone most of the time should compare the F7A Hornet Mk II, Gladius, Sabre, Mirai Guardian, or Vanguard Warden. Players who want a more flexible two-seat fighter should compare the Scorpius or Super Hornet Mk II. But for buyers who want a compact Anvil ship with high two-player damage pressure, the Anvil Hurricane remains one of Star Citizen’s more direct glass-hammer fighters.
Hurricane FAQ
Is the Anvil Hurricane worth buying in Star Citizen?
Yes, if you have a reliable gunner and want a compact two-seat fighter with high damage output. It is not ideal if you mainly fly solo, want cargo, need long-range endurance, or prefer forgiving ships.
Is the Hurricane Flight Ready?
Yes. Current reference data lists the Hurricane as Flight Ready, with Flight Ready history from Alpha 3.2.0.
What is the main role of the Hurricane?
The Hurricane is a heavy fighter focused on high damage output. RSI describes it as a ship that packs a dangerous punch into a small fuselage and compensates for lack of comfort with powerful armament.
How many crew does the Hurricane need?
The Hurricane is built for 2 crew: pilot and turret gunner. Current reference data lists its crew as 2, and RSI’s Q&A says the ship is at its best when pilot and gunner coordinate well.
Can the Hurricane be flown solo?
Yes, but it loses much of its value. RSI says solo Hurricane pilots tend to focus mainly forward, while the ship shines best with a dual crew.
Does the Hurricane have cargo?
No. RSI’s older technical overview lists cargo capacity as 0, and the Hurricane should be treated as a combat-only ship.
How big is the Hurricane?
Current reference data lists the Hurricane at 22m length, 18.2m width, and 6m height.
What weapons does the Hurricane have?
Current reference data lists 2× Size 4 pilot guns, a manned turret with 4× Size 3 guns, and 4× Size 2 missiles.
Is the Hurricane a glass cannon?
Yes. RSI’s Q&A describes the Hurricane’s glass cannon / glass hammer identity as high damage output at the cost of low durability.
Is the Hurricane good for dogfighting?
It can fight, but it is not meant to behave like a nimble turning dogfighter. RSI says the Hurricane is faster than it is nimble and should not try to stay in the middle of a prolonged turning fight.
Should I choose the Hurricane or Scorpius?
Choose the Hurricane if you have a reliable gunner and want a compact glass-hammer fighter focused on short-window damage, target pressure, and aggressive attack runs. Choose the Scorpius if you want a more flexible two-seat heavy fighter with broader turret coverage, a more modern layout, and a slightly more forgiving feel. The Hurricane is the more extreme two-seat damage ship, while the Scorpius is the more flexible two-seat fighter.
Is the Hurricane good for PvE bounty missions?
Yes, especially with a gunner. It can deliver strong damage quickly, but the crew should choose targets carefully and avoid taking unnecessary return fire.
Is the Hurricane good for PvP?
