Look at what those sneaky Saga guys have hidden in the game files:
I can only presume at one point it was supposed to actually appear in-game since it's a complete .pof with hardpoints and everything else needed, but it seems to have been cut from the campaign quite some time ago, i couldn't find any normal maps like with most of the other models.
There was probably no plausible reason for the ship to be part of the campaign so i understand leaving it out, but the model is just so pretty i HAD to fly it, so i edited the ships.tbl to at least put it in custom missions.
If anyone else is interested, extract the following file into your Saga directory (so you have a ships.tbl in Wing Commander Saga\Data\Tables).
I used stats i took from the ships database and converted them to their Saga equivalent, so it should at least be close to accurate.
There's also a small custom mission where you can test your skills on an Excalibur. But be prepared to react FAST!
