Development
| 2014-11-03 | The Gladius was designed by Gavin Rothery (Freelance Conceptist)[7] and directed by Paul Jones. Other contributors include Foundry 42's Bjorn Seinstra (Lead Vehicle Artist), Phill Meller (Lead Designer), Neil McKnight (Senior 3D Artist), along with Chris Roberts.[8] |
| 2017-07-09 | The Gladius received a cockpit rework to accompany the new item 2.0 system. The center monitor is removed to provide better visibility for the front turret. The side monitors are enlarged to show additional information. The cockpit reworked is deployed in Star Citizen Alpha 3.0.0.[9] |
| 2021-04-01 | The gold standard Gladius is released to the Persistent Universe in Alpha 3.13.0. That includes many level of detail, decal, geometry, material, and paint changes inside the cockpit and on the exterior of the ship. Noticeably, the update implements the exterior access points to the physicalized components, as well as personal locker, fuel port access, and numerous maintenance panels.[10][11] |
Trivia
- The ship is named after a Gladius which is a type of sword that was used by ancient Roman foot soldiers starting from the 3rd century BC and until the 3rd century AD. [12]
