Observed on Catherine@marcterchief#5203
Tested on maps Deep Space Nine and Nassordin (Aftermath)
The issue: Using the recently unbound Console - Universal - HoH'SuS Bird-of-Prey on ships that are not in the Bortasqu' family causes both the ship and the summon to be completely invisible. Deactivating the console reverts the ship back to normal. The issue has been observed on the Legendary Avenger, the Terran Hydra and the Legendary Galaxy. Launching the HoH'SuS on an Odyssey-family ship (The Terran Lexington in my case) plays the Aquarius launch animation before turning invisible. Launching both the Aquarius and the HoH'SuS using their respective consoles (they don't lock each other out) causes the ship to rapidly blink in an out of existence. In all cases, the ship and summon still work as normal. Finally, deactivating the console to bring the HoH'SuS back plays an explosion VFX on your ship.
Judging by the weapon hardpoints it seems like the game is trying to use the separated Bortasqu' model but can't load it if you fly the wrong ship, resulting in the invisible ship.
