Star Citizen Javelin Weapons List: Types and Placements

See the Javelin’s reported weapon groups organized by type and placement. Because loadout details can change, use the stated date context and verify the current inventory before relying on it.

The Star Citizen Javelin weapons list in the RSI store description includes two Size 9 missiles and six Size 4 turrets. [1] Treat those figures as a dated snapshot, not a guarantee of the Javelin’s current in-game loadout. It also helps to read Star Citizen Javelin Specifications: Key Ship Details.

For a quick inventory, keep the entries grouped by type: the store description gives counts and sizes, but not a placement map or details of what the turrets carry. [1] For example, you can record the missile and turret groups separately without guessing where either is mounted. Check the current-spec guide before relying on this list in game.

This layout keeps confirmed counts distinct from details that are not included in the store description.

Missiles and other large ordnance

The Javelin listing shows 2 Size 9 missiles. [1] The Javelin carries two Size 9 missiles.[1]

Ordnance group

Placement or model

Not specified

For example, this entry lets you record the Javelin’s listed missile quantity without guessing whether the missiles are mounted in a particular bay or use a particular model. The description mentions enormous torpedoes in general, but it does not give an additional torpedo count to add to this missile entry. [1]

Keep the listing precise

When you compare this entry with another Javelin inventory, keep the wording narrow: two Size 9 missiles. Check the full weapons loadout on the ship’s store page before you buy.

That distinction is useful when you are organizing a ship loadout: record the confirmed count and size, then leave any unlisted details blank rather than filling them in from assumption. This keeps the missile entry useful without presenting an imagined placement or configuration as fact.

Add a verification date when this article is published so readers can tell when the listing was checked. Before relying on it for a current loadout, compare it with the latest ship details or in-game information; for a repeatable check, use the focused current-spec guide.

Turrets and gun placements

Use the table as a compact record of what the listing specifies—and keep the unknown placement details separate from verified figures.

That means you can record the turret count and size without turning them into a deck-by-deck map. For example, don’t label any turret as a bow, dorsal, or ventral mount unless you have separate confirmation for that position.

So a Size 4 turret entry is not enough to identify a particular cannon or gatling gun; treat the installed weapon model as unspecified in this list.

When comparing another Javelin inventory, keep the distinction clear: “six Size 4 turrets” is the store-listed figure, while any named weapon or exact position needs its own support. This makes the table useful without implying more detail than it contains. Check the current-spec guide to verify the inventory against the latest available information.

How to read conflicting weapon details

The Javelin’s store listing names Size 9 missiles and Size 4 turrets, while the wiki describes dual Size 4 Revenant Gatlings and dual Size 7 railguns as a separate configuration. [2] [1]

Check whether the list is still current

The store listing gives the Javelin’s armament as “2x Size 9 Missiles” and “6x Size 4 Turrets.” [1]

Use the inventory as a dated snapshot

Treat the Javelin weapon inventory as a version-sensitive snapshot, not a permanent loadout. Ship details can change, so check the current-spec guide before relying on this list for planning or comparison. It also helps to read Star Citizen Ship Weapons Not Firing Fix: Checks to Try.

Recheck before you use the list

When you revisit the inventory, compare each listed group with the latest available ship information. For example, check that the missile and turret entries still match, and note any differences rather than silently carrying old details forward. If you are preparing a loadout comparison, make the check before you publish or share it.

Keep the distinction between a listed weapon group and a confirmed installed weapon clear. A turret count alone does not tell you which guns are fitted or where each turret sits, so avoid turning an unspecified detail into a placement claim. If the current listing gives more detail, update only the entries it supports.

The practical takeaway: treat this inventory as a dated reference, then verify its groups against current information before using it. For the repeatable check, go to the current-spec guide and compare the latest listing with the entries you plan to cite.
