The long-awaited F8C Lightning fighter from Anvil Aerospace has been released in Star Citizen. The ship is highly anticipated and has been tested extensively. The F8C is considered a perfect blend of Anvil’s technology and excellent combat gameplay. It performs exceptionally well in terms of speed, maneuverability, and firepower.
The F8C Lightning’s roll is incredibly responsive and powerful. Its speed and agility allow it to outmaneuver other fighters like the Hornet and the Arrow. In tests against the Hornet, the F8C Lightning proved to be dominant in duels, despite the Hornet’s accelerational advantages. The F8C Lightning also showcased its strong shields, allowing it to withstand significant damage.
When facing skilled opponents like the pilot of the Arrow, the F8C Lightning still proved to be a formidable opponent. Although the Arrow has the advantage in terms of dueling, the F8C Lightning’s durability and damage output allowed it to prevail in the fight.
In tests against multiple opponents, including the Hornet, the F8C Lightning continued to outperform. It demonstrated its superior turn rate, tracking, and trade capabilities. The F8C Lightning’s two size two shield generators provided substantial shield coverage, making it difficult for opponents to break through and access its hull.
The F8C Lightning is hailed as the "F22" of Star Citizen and a prime example of Anvil Aerospace’s dogfighting technology. It is considered one of the main fighters for the upcoming Squadron 42 mode. The ship is currently available for purchase through an event in the game.
The testing of the F8C Lightning has only just begun, with further evaluations planned against other types of ships and in different scenarios. However, based on its current performance, it is expected to excel in dogfighting. Fans of Anvil Aerospace are likely to be drawn to this ship.
The video creator expresses gratitude to their supporters and encourages viewers to continue engaging with their content on Twitch. They also mention their participation in the upcoming Citizen Con and express excitement for the future of Star Citizen and the opportunity to fly the F8C Lightning in various game modes.
