Star Citizen MISC Starlite Arrives - New Ships at DefenseCon 2956!

⏱ 15 min video · 2 min read18 May 2026
TL;DR
BoredGamer covers Day 2 of DefenseCon 2956 in Star Citizen, highlighting the newly flyable MISC Starlancer and previewing the upcoming Aegis Dynamics Day on May 20, 2026, which will feature Idris/Javelin sales and the new Tiberion ship.
Key points
1
The MISC Starlite (entry-level refueler) is now flyable in-game and available to purchase for $60, with in-game earnable availability in 2-4 months.
2
The Starlite carries half the fuel capacity of the Star Farer but shares interchangeable fuel pods with it; it can refuel any size ship but cannot harvest or refine fuel.
3
Aegis Dynamics Day is on May 20, 2026 (approx. 48 hours from recording), featuring Idris and Javelin sales in 6 waves every 4 hours from 4pm UTC, plus the new Tiberion ship.
4
The Tiberion is built on the Hammerhead frame but is a distinct ship featuring a large fixed beam weapon and large-caliber turrets, expected to cost $700-$850.
5
Other manufacturers on the show floor include Mirai (Fury, Guardian series), Argo (MPUV variants, SRV), and Greycat (MDC auto-turret, MTC mobile armory).
Actionable insights
At $60, the Starlite is a viable starter ship for players wanting to pursue a fuel hauling career without a large investment.
Players interested in the Idris or Javelin should be ready on May 20 at 4pm UTC as sales are in limited waves and will sell out quickly.
The Starlite and Star Farer are designed to complement each other in a fuel economy loop: Star Farer harvests and refines, Starlite hauls and distributes.
Notable quotes

The Star Farer is licensed out to Aegis, who made the Gemini version. That is real. You're going no it's a MISC ship. The frame is technically MISC and is licensed out to Aegis.

I say entry level because well it's a starter ship as well. I suppose it's cheap enough to be a starter. It looks like it's $60 which is absolutely fantastic. It is cheaper than I thought it was going to be.
