What this build is for

The cheapest viable stealth platform in 4.7. 4.7.0 removed passive cross-section detection, which makes the Aurora LN's small EM footprint actually useful.

  • Below most combat radars' threshold at moderate distance
  • "Social stealth" — Auroras don't pattern-match as a threat the way a Sabre does
  • One good first shot, then quantum out
  • Not a bounty platform; an approach platform

The build

  • Weapons:klwe_laserrepeater_s1 CF-117 Bulldog laser repeaters across all S1 mounts. Same family for consistent timing; repeaters run cool (low IR).
  • Power plant: powr_tydt_s01_slipstream_scitem Slipstream — lower EM contribution than stock.
  • Stock everything else. Aurora LN ships with stealth-friendly small radar and low-EM shields.

Stats at a glance

EM signature~13,000, IR signature6,500, Shield HP7,920, SCM speed225m/s. For reference: stock Cutlass Black ~3,800 EM (loud); stealth Sabre ~6,500 EM. Aurora sits closer to Sabre than Cutlass.

When not to use this build

  • Sustained fights. Small shield, cheap weapons. Win the first shot and quantum out.
  • Higher-tier bounties. Aurora isn't the bounty platform.
  • Any cargo work. 3 SCU is incidental.

What patches this is good for

Authored against build 4.7.2-LIVE.11674325. 4.7.0's passive cross-section removal makes the build's whole thesis viable. Aurora LN stock loadout unchanged across 4.7.x.

Highlighted cards are variant changes.
