What can you tell us about the Polaris? Anything?
John Crewe · Vehicle Director

So I'll give the other popular answer of: it is not in active development right now, as of this second as I talk. But we have done a complete concept update pass on it. So when it is ready to go into production, it is all there, we've worked out all the corridors and rooms, they've been brought up to modern standards for all the metrics, all the usables. We've pulled in a lot of reference from the Bengal interior into it, so it's all the RSI interiors. The Mantis took inspiration from the Connie, and you can see it, but they're not the same, and it's similar between RSI's larger capital ships, Bengal and Polaris, and between those two, the Mantis and Constellation. And the other big change on the Polaris is it did get a bit bigger, as all things do, but the trade-off for that is now the hangar is to the standardized metric for the fighter size class that it's supposed to hold, so it's not the very weird size that it was. It is a standard... I always forget what the player-facing category is, but internally, dev side, it's an extra small one. So that's your Gladiuses, Sabres. They will all fit in there. And a Scorpius.

So the Scorpius will fit inside the hangar.

In its folded wings-back position. I mean, it will fit in if you put it the other way. You just might not have your wings left. I know what people are like.
