195.240.108.48: Asp EXPLORER is NOT a Multi Purpose ship. (x2, stop reverting to wrong version)

{{UpdateMe}}

<div style="float: right;">__TOC__</div>

'''Ships''' are used to traverse space. As with previous Elite games, [http://www.helvellyn.plus.com/3dfrontier][http://www.frontierastro.co.uk/Ships/ships.html][http://ffeartpage.com/ident.htm][http://www.jades.org/shiprevs.htm] there will be a variety of designs.

Currently there are 15 ships, with each manufacturer having its own unique style.<ref>[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=a4bd777a7f#4 Newsletter #5]</ref> There are plans to have a total of 30 playable ships and some variants in addition to some non-playable ships. Each ship has access to a range of different modules which they can [[Outfitting|fit]] to help specialize as traders, smugglers, bounty hunters, pirates, etc.

All commanders begin the game with a [[Sidewinder]]. The player may upgrade components or purchase an entirely new ship based upon their needs. New ships can only be purchased at stations with the Shipyard service and modules can only be changed or upgrades at stations with the [[Outfitting]] service.

==Ship Types==
===Multi-purpose===
Multi-purpose ships are a jack-of-all-trades in that they can easily be fitted for whatever role the player needs; whether it be hauling cargo, shooting ships, or exploring the stars the multi-purpose ship can do it all.

===Combat===
Combat ships are typically faster, more agile and heavily armed than other ships of the same size. The exception to this would be gun boats, which have more weapon mounts designed for turrets, but sacrifice their agility for them.

===Freighter===
Freighters are typically slow, cumbersome and lightly armed, but provide extreme hauling capabilities. Useful for traders and smugglers alike.

===Explorer===
Exploration ships typically come with large default jump ranges, large fuel tanks for ships of their size, and lots of low class internal compartments for scanners. These ships are designed to be able to equip the multitude of scanning equipment needed for an expedition, then fly long distances into the void without the need for regular refueling.

===Passenger===
Couriers who fly passengers and valuable items with small storage requirements have a special class of ships available to them. These ships are elegant and fast, designed to quickly and comfortably get from one system to the next. You can think of them as giant limousines for space. However, as of now, passenger ships have no significant use in the game as passengers themselves have yet to be implemented.

==Ship StatsFor additional stats please view each ship's individual page.==
The developers confirmed that the community formula for the shield strength is wrong! All shield values needs to be updated!

==Ship Outfitting==
All ships are highly customizable through outfitting. Each outfit slot has a maximum class that can be put into that slot. This only lists what type of outfit slots are available for each ship, their exact content has to be put on some other page. For example: Internal compartments can contain cargo space, where class 1 = 2t, class 2 = 4t, class 3 = 8t, class 4 = 16t... But Internal compartments can also contain shield capacitors, scanners, etc. Apart from classes, outfits also have a quality rating A-H, and other characteristics such as energy drain, armor piercing, etc.

Max class for each outfit slot in table below (more info on respective ship page):

== Faction Ships ==
Frontier are developing a family of ships for the navies of each faction in the game. Examples:
* [[Empire Fighter]] - Empire Fighter
* [[Empire Courier|Imperial Courier]] - Empire Scout
* [[Empire Courier|Imperial Cutter]] - civilian version of Empire Light Warship
* [[Majestic Class Interdictor]] - Empire Capital Ship
* [[F63 Condor]] - Federal Fighter
* [[Farragut]] - Federal Capital Ship

The fleet-class ships that are available to the game’s major factions follow a hierarchy.<ref>[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=c0b11fe947 Newsletter #7]</ref>

=== Cruisers (Battlecruisers, Battleships, Interdictors) ===
Long range, independent ships that are capable of controlling entire systems. Heavily armed and capable of deploying large fighter squadrons. The capital ships already shown are an example of this class. In the Empire they are usually known as “Interdictors” – named after the first successful class of cruisers. Currently the most common and most successful is the Majestic class – generally referred to as a “Majestic class Interdictor”. As ships that can also carry out ambassadorial missions they can be used for ‘soft’ power projection, as well as hard.

=== Frigates ===
These are large ships designed for escort duties. The actual vessels vary greatly between navies, but are all designed to engage multiple small, fast enemies (typically fighters and missile swarms) and are loaded with point defense batteries. They will also have some anti-ship capability, but are not designed to go up against other warships.

=== Destroyers ===
These are anti-warship vessels, but are generally no longer used in the front line, though some are still in service.

=== Carriers ===
Designed for the deployment of fighter squadrons. Obsolete in the fleets of the major factions due to the popularity of Cruisers, but small navies still make use of them and some have even been converted into transporters.

=== Transporters (Couriers) ===
Armored warships designed specifically for transporting valuable assets and cargo quickly and safely.

=== Corvettes (Cutters) ===
Light multi-role warships, capable of recon, incursions and escort missions. These small warships are also popular with smaller factions, organizations and even wealthy individuals due to their adaptability. The Imperial Cutter is a lighter and faster Corvette-class ship, which players will be able to get their hands on in the final game (assuming they can make the right contacts).

=== Fighters ===
Small short-range craft that generally cannot operate independently due to having no jump capability. Their main roles include the defense of stations and the large warships that they are deployed from. Commercial fighters are typically jump-capable and are therefore much more flexible than their faction-specific counterparts.

=== Drones ===
Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures.

195.240.108.48: Asp >Explorer< is not a multi purpose ship.

{{UpdateMe}}

<div style="float: right;">__TOC__</div>

'''Ships''' are used to traverse space. As with previous Elite games, [http://www.helvellyn.plus.com/3dfrontier][http://www.frontierastro.co.uk/Ships/ships.html][http://ffeartpage.com/ident.htm][http://www.jades.org/shiprevs.htm] there will be a variety of designs.

Currently there are 15 ships, with each manufacturer having its own unique style.<ref>[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=a4bd777a7f#4 Newsletter #5]</ref> There are plans to have a total of 30 playable ships and some variants in addition to some non-playable ships. Each ship has access to a range of different modules which they can [[Outfitting|fit]] to help specialize as traders, smugglers, bounty hunters, pirates, etc.

All commanders begin the game with a [[Sidewinder]]. The player may upgrade components or purchase an entirely new ship based upon their needs. New ships can only be purchased at stations with the Shipyard service and modules can only be changed or upgrades at stations with the [[Outfitting]] service.

Combat ships are typically faster, more agile and heavily armed than other ships of the same size. The exception to this would be gun boats, which have more weapon mounts designed for turrets, but sacrifice their agility for them.

===Freighter===
Freighters are typically slow, cumbersome and lightly armed, but provide extreme hauling capabilities. Useful for traders and smugglers alike.

===Explorer===
Exploration ships typically come with large default jump ranges, large fuel tanks for ships of their size, and lots of low class internal compartments for scanners. These ships are designed to be able to equip the multitude of scanning equipment needed for an expedition, then fly long distances into the void without the need for regular refueling.

===Passenger===
Couriers who fly passengers and valuable items with small storage requirements have a special class of ships available to them. These ships are elegant and fast, designed to quickly and comfortably get from one system to the next. You can think of them as giant limousines for space.

==Ship Stats==
For additional stats please view each ship's individual page.

The developers confirmed that the community formula for the shield strength is wrong! All shield values needs to be updated!

==Ship Outfitting==
All ships are highly customizable through outfitting. Each outfit slot has a maximum class that can be put into that slot. This only lists what type of outfit slots are available for each ship, their exact content has to be put on some other page. For example: Internal compartments can contain cargo space, where class 1 = 2t, class 2 = 4t, class 3 = 8t, class 4 = 16t... But Internal compartments can also contain shield capacitors, scanners, etc. Apart from classes, outfits also have a quality rating A-H, and other characteristics such as energy drain, armor piercing, etc.

Max class for each outfit slot in table below (more info on respective ship page):

== Faction Ships ==
Frontier are developing a family of ships for the navies of each faction in the game. Examples:
* [[Empire Fighter]] - Empire Fighter
* [[Empire Courier|Imperial Courier]] - Empire Scout
* [[Empire Courier|Imperial Cutter]] - civilian version of Empire Light Warship
* [[Majestic Class Interdictor]] - Empire Capital Ship
* [[F63 Condor]] - Federal Fighter
* [[Farragut]] - Federal Capital Ship

The fleet-class ships that are available to the game’s major factions follow a hierarchy.<ref>[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=c0b11fe947 Newsletter #7]</ref>

=== Cruisers (Battlecruisers, Battleships, Interdictors) ===
Long range, independent ships that are capable of controlling entire systems. Heavily armed and capable of deploying large fighter squadrons. The capital ships already shown are an example of this class. In the Empire they are usually known as “Interdictors” – named after the first successful class of cruisers. Currently the most common and most successful is the Majestic class – generally referred to as a “Majestic class Interdictor”. As ships that can also carry out ambassadorial missions they can be used for ‘soft’ power projection, as well as hard.

=== Frigates ===
These are large ships designed for escort duties. The actual vessels vary greatly between navies, but are all designed to engage multiple small, fast enemies (typically fighters and missile swarms) and are loaded with point defense batteries. They will also have some anti-ship capability, but are not designed to go up against other warships.

=== Destroyers ===
These are anti-warship vessels, but are generally no longer used in the front line, though some are still in service.

=== Carriers ===
Designed for the deployment of fighter squadrons. Obsolete in the fleets of the major factions due to the popularity of Cruisers, but small navies still make use of them and some have even been converted into transporters.

=== Transporters (Couriers) ===
Armored warships designed specifically for transporting valuable assets and cargo quickly and safely.

=== Corvettes (Cutters) ===
Light multi-role warships, capable of recon, incursions and escort missions. These small warships are also popular with smaller factions, organizations and even wealthy individuals due to their adaptability. The Imperial Cutter is a lighter and faster Corvette-class ship, which players will be able to get their hands on in the final game (assuming they can make the right contacts).

=== Fighters ===
Small short-range craft that generally cannot operate independently due to having no jump capability. Their main roles include the defense of stations and the large warships that they are deployed from. Commercial fighters are typically jump-capable and are therefore much more flexible than their faction-specific counterparts.

=== Drones ===
Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures.

195.240.108.48: ''Ultra'' Heavy doesn't apply, since the Clipper and the Dropshit are heavier than the Anaconda.

'''Ships''' are used to traverse space. As with previous Elite games, [http://www.helvellyn.plus.com/3dfrontier][http://www.frontierastro.co.uk/Ships/ships.html][http://ffeartpage.com/ident.htm][http://www.jades.org/shiprevs.htm] there will be a variety of designs.

There will be 25 different '''playable''' ships in addition to some non-playable ones at launch,[http://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=9285] with each manufacturer having its own unique style.[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=a4bd777a7f#4] Some will have variant versions, and each will have a huge range of different equipment levels, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NSMMTfwTOU&t=203] so they could be equipped as freighters, attack ships, explorers, etc.

*Note that prices will vary greatly between star ports and are modified by the resell value of your current ship, Lakons and Anacondas in particular undergo a significant markup, expect to pay up to double the values in the table. The above prices are the based of the insurance values which are currently the only way to find the true value of a ship.

*Beta 2.04: The ship (and modules!) you sell, is sold at 90% it's value (you lose 10%).
**As your modules are sold at 90% value when buying a new ship, sell/swap your modules to cheaper ones, if possible, in the outfitting, as you get 100% the price there, so in the end the 10% you lose, will be from a less expensive module (I would expect this to be fixed to a 10% loss as well at some stage. Would make sense, so buyer beware).

*Given you know the value of your current ship (use the table above) you can then calculate the real price of the rest of the ships the current shipyard offers. Just add 90% of the base value of the ship you are in to the price listed (this assumes your current ship is standard fitted only - else add 90% value of modules as well)

*Here are [https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=31072 some more detailed ship stats], which include things such as turnrates, which should be added to this page soon.

== Available Outfitting on Ships ==
All ships are highly customizable through outfitting. Each outfit slot has a maximum class that can be put into that slot. This only lists what type of outfit slots are available for each ship, their exact content has to be put on some other page. For example: Internal housing can contain cargo space, where class 1 = 2t, class 2 = 4t, class 3 = 8t, class 4 = 16t... But Internal housing can also contain shield capacitors, scanners, etc. Apart from classes, outfits also have a quality rating A-H, and other characteristics such as energy drain, armor piercing, etc.

Max class for each outfit slot in table below (more info on respective ship page):

== Faction Ships ==
Frontier are developing a family of ships for the navies of each faction in the game. Example:
*[[Empire Fighter]] - Empire Fighter
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Courier]] - Empire Scout
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Cutter]] - civilian version of Empire Light Warship
*[[Majestic Class Interdictor]] - Empire Capital Ship
*[[F63 Condor]] - Federal Fighter
*[[Farragut]] - Federal Capital Ship

The fleet-class ships that are available to the game’s major factions follow a hierarchy.<ref>Newsletter #7</ref>

=== Cruisers (Battle cruisers, Battleships, Interdictors) ===
Long range, independent ships that are capable of controlling entire systems. Heavily armed and capable of deploying large fighter squadrons. The capital ships already shown are an example of this class. In the Empire they are usually known as “Interdictors” – named after the first successful class of cruisers. Currently the most common and most successful is the Majestic class – generally referred to as a “Majestic class Interdictor”. As ships that can also carry out ambassadorial missions they can be used for ‘soft’ power projection, as well as hard.

=== Frigates ===
These are large ships designed for escort duties. The actual vessels vary greatly between navies, but are all designed to engage multiple small, fast enemies (typically fighters and missile swarms) and are loaded with point defense batteries. They will also have some anti-ship capability, but are not designed to go up against other warships.

=== Destroyers ===
These are anti-warship vessels, but are generally no longer used in the front line, though some are still in service.

=== Carriers ===
Designed for the deployment of fighter squadrons. Obsolete in the fleets of the major factions due to the popularity of Cruisers, but small navies still make use of them and some have even been converted into transporters.

=== Transporters (Couriers) ===
Armored warships designed specifically for transporting valuable assets and cargo quickly and safely.

=== Corvettes (Cutters) ===
Light multi-role warships, capable of recon, incursions and escort missions. These small warships are also popular with smaller factions, organizations and even wealthy individuals due to their adaptability. The Imperial Cutter is a lighter and faster Corvette-class ship, which players will be able to get their hands on in the final game (assuming they can make the right contacts).

=== Fighters ===
Small short-range craft that generally cannot operate independently due to having no jump capability. Their main roles include the defense of stations and the large warships that they are deployed from. Commercial fighters are typically jump-capable and are therefore much more flexible than their faction-specific counterparts.

=== Drones ===
Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures.

'''Ships''' are used to traverse space. As with previous Elite games,[http://www.helvellyn.plus.com/3dfrontier][http://www.frontierastro.co.uk/Ships/ships.html][http://ffeartpage.com/ident.htm][http://www.jades.org/shiprevs.htm] there will be a variety of designs.

There will be 25 different '''playable''' ships in addition to some non-playable ones at launch,[http://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=9285] with each manufacturer having its own unique style.[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=a4bd777a7f#4] Some will have variant versions, and each will have a huge range of different equipment levels,[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NSMMTfwTOU&t=203] so they could be equipped as freighters, attack ships, explorers, etc.

;Considerations
*The in-shipyard prices are modified by the value of your current ship and supply/demand. It is not the true value of the ship. Generate costs from the insurance.

*Note that prices will vary greatly between star ports and are modified by the resell value of your current ship, Lakons and Anacondas in particular undergo a significant markup, expect to pay up to double the values in the table. The above prices are the based of the insurance values which are currently the only way to find the true value of a ship.

*Beta 2.04: The ship (and modules!) you sell, is sold at 90% it's value (you lose 10%).
**As your modules are sold at 90% value when buying a new ship, sell/swap your modules to cheaper ones, if possible, in the outfitting, as you get 100% the price there, so in the end the 10% you lose, will be from a less expensive module (I would expect this to be fixed to a 10% loss as well at some stage. Would make sense, so buyer beware).

*Given you know the value of your current ship (use the table above) you can then calculate the real price of the rest of the ships the current shipyard offers. Just add 90% of the base value of the ship you are in to the price listed (this assumes your current ship is standard fitted only - else add 90% value of modules as well)

*Here are [https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=31072 some more detailed ship stats], which include things such as turnrates, which should be added to this page soon.

== Available Outfitting on Ships ==
All ships are highly customizable through outfitting. Each outfit slot has a maximum class that can be put into that slot. This only lists what type of outfit slots are available for each ship, their exact content has to be put on some other page. For example: Internal housing can contain cargo space, where class 1 = 2t, class 2 = 4t, class 3 = 8t, class 4 = 16t... But Internal housing can also contain shield capacitors, scanners, etc. Apart from classes, outfits also have a quality rating A-H, and other characteristics such as energy drain, armor piercing, etc.

Max class for each outfit slot in table below (more info on respective ship page):

== Faction Ships ==
Frontier are developing a family of ships for the navies of each faction in the game. Example:
*[[Empire Fighter]] - Empire Fighter
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Courier]] - Empire Scout
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Cutter]] - civilian version of Empire Light Warship
*[[Majestic Class Interdictor]] - Empire Capital Ship
*[[F63 Condor]] - Federal Fighter
*[[Farragut]] - Federal Capital Ship

The fleet-class ships that are available to the game’s major factions follow a hierarchy.<ref>Newsletter #7</ref>

=== Cruisers (Battle cruisers, Battleships, Interdictors) ===
Long range, independent ships that are capable of controlling entire systems. Heavily armed and capable of deploying large fighter squadrons. The capital ships already shown are an example of this class. In the Empire they are usually known as “Interdictors” – named after the first successful class of cruisers. Currently the most common and most successful is the Majestic class – generally referred to as a “Majestic class Interdictor”. As ships that can also carry out ambassadorial missions they can be used for ‘soft’ power projection, as well as hard.

=== Frigates ===
These are large ships designed for escort duties. The actual vessels vary greatly between navies, but are all designed to engage multiple small, fast enemies (typically fighters and missile swarms) and are loaded with point defence batteries. They will also have some anti-ship capability, but are not designed to go up against other warships.

=== Destroyers ===
These are anti-warship vessels, but are generally no longer used in the front line, though some are still in service.

=== Carriers ===
Designed for the deployment of fighter squadrons. Obsolete in the fleets of the major factions due to the popularity of Cruisers, but small navies still make use of them and some have even been converted into transporters.

=== Transporters (Couriers) ===
Armored warships designed specifically for transporting valuable assets and cargo quickly and safely.

=== Corvettes (Cutters) ===
Light multi-role warships, capable of recon, incursions and escort missions. These small warships are also popular with smaller factions, organizations and even wealthy individuals due to their adaptability. The Imperial Cutter is a lighter and faster Corvette-class ship, which players will be able to get their hands on in the final game (assuming they can make the right contacts).

=== Fighters ===
Small short-range craft that generally cannot operate independently due to having no jump capability. Their main roles include the defense of stations and the large warships that they are deployed from. Commercial fighters are typically jump-capable and are therefore much more flexible than their faction-specific counterparts.

=== Drones ===
Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures.

Sidewinder

2014-09-30T06:12:03Z

195.240.108.48: multi-role + ''for any role'' is the same multi-se + ''for any role'' makes more sense :)

[[File:Sidewinder16x9.jpg|thumb|400px|Sidewinder Mk. I]]
Built by [[Faulcon DeLacy]], the '''Sidewinder Mk I''' is a superb multi-use ship suitable for any role. It is inexpensive - free, in fact - and can be used for light transport and combat duties.

Its maneuverability makes it an excellent choice for both green and experienced pilots. The Sidewinder is a dependable vessel that will get you where you need to go, safe and sound.

== Overview (Beta) ==
The Sidewinder is the default craft offered throughout the game. The player starts in one, and if at any time their ship is destroyed they can get a free Sidewinder if they can't or don't want to replace their ship. New players who still struggle with learning the game, may find themselves flying it for a longer time or going back to it often.

Although the Sidewinder is cheap, it is not harmless; it is very maneuverable compared to any other available ship, save the [[Eagle Mk II|Eagle]]. In particular, it can out-turn a [[Cobra Mk. III|Cobra]] or [[Anaconda]], stay aimed at subsystems, and still keep enough range to lay down fire. Combined with heavy weaponry like missile pods, the Sidewinder can punch far above its weight. The major disadvantages of the Sidewinder is that it isn't very quick, being outclassed by Eagles, [[Viper Mk III|Vipers]], and Cobras, and that it isn't well armored, being far outclassed by Anacondas and [[Lakon Type 9|Lakon haulers]].

The Sidewinder is thus a master of the knife-fight, but a little weak at a distance. When flying one, using its excellent turning to lock opponents into circling matches, and burning away opposite of the enemy to escape are advised tactics. When fighting a Sidewinder, keep it at range and lay down heavy fire if the current ship can't outmaneuver it, and it should be destroyed quickly; with a ship that has can keep up with its turning, close in and blast away, making sure to stay away from its front.

195.240.108.48: /* Current Pilotable Ships */

'''Ships''' are used to traverse space. As with previous Elite games,[http://www.frontierastro.co.uk/Ships/ships.html][http://ffeartpage.com/ident.htm][http://www.jades.org/shiprevs.htm] there will be a variety of designs.

There will be 25 different '''playable''' ships in addition to some non-playable ones at launch,[http://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=9285] with each manufacturer having its own unique style.[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=a4bd777a7f#4] Some will have variant versions, and each will have a huge range of different equipment levels,[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NSMMTfwTOU&t=203] so they could be equipped as freighters, attack ships, explorers, etc.

The in-shipyard prices are modified by the value of your current ship and supply/demand. It is not the true value of the ship. Generate costs from the insurance. The only ships this doesn't work for is the Type 9.

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Note the sidewinder is available for free via insurance.

<nowiki>**</nowiki>Empty, stripped, full fuel. Note that in Beta1 there is a bug whereby the distance reported for missions on the Bulletin Board is the range with no fuel loaded.

<nowiki>***</nowiki>The price of the Cobra MkIII was reduced by 50% as part of a promotion by Faulcon deLacy. It is not clear yet how long the price reduction will last. Get your Cobra MkIII while they're hot.

Values in '''''bold italics''''' indicate best in category

Note that prices will vary greatly between star ports and are modified by the resell value of your current ship, Lakons and Anacondas in particular undergo a significant markup, expect to pay up to double the values in the table. The above prices are the based of the insurance values which are currently the only way to find the true value of a ship.

Here are [https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=31072 some more detailed ship stats], which include things such as turnrates, which should be added to this page soon.

== Faction Ships ==
Frontier are developing a family of ships for the navies of each faction in the game. Example:
*[[Empire Fighter]] - Empire Fighter
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Courier]] - Empire Scout
*[[Empire Courier|Imperial Cutter]] - civilian version of Empire Light Warship
*[[Majestic Class Interdictor]] - Empire Capital Ship
*[[F63 Condor]] - Federal Fighter
*[[Farragut]] - Federal Capital Ship

The fleet-class ships that are available to the game’s major factions follow a hierarchy.<ref>Newsletter #7</ref>

=== Cruisers (Battle cruisers, Battleships, Interdictors) ===
Long range, independent ships that are capable of controlling entire systems. Heavily armed and capable of deploying large fighter squadrons. The capital ships already shown are an example of this class. In the Empire they are usually known as “Interdictors” – named after the first successful class of cruisers. Currently the most common and most successful is the Majestic class – generally referred to as a “Majestic class Interdictor”. As ships that can also carry out ambassadorial missions they can be used for ‘soft’ power projection, as well as hard.

=== Frigates ===
These are large ships designed for escort duties. The actual vessels vary greatly between navies, but are all designed to engage multiple small, fast enemies (typically fighters and missile swarms) and are loaded with point defence batteries. They will also have some anti-ship capability, but are not designed to go up against other warships.

=== Destroyers ===
These are anti-warship vessels, but are generally no longer used in the front line, though some are still in service.

=== Carriers ===
Designed for the deployment of fighter squadrons. Obsolete in the fleets of the major factions due to the popularity of Cruisers, but small navies still make use of them and some have even been converted into transporters.

=== Transporters (Couriers) ===
Armored warships designed specifically for transporting valuable assets and cargo quickly and safely.

=== Corvettes (Cutters) ===
Light multi-role warships, capable of recon, incursions and escort missions. These small warships are also popular with smaller factions, organizations and even wealthy individuals due to their adaptability. The Imperial Cutter is a lighter and faster Corvette-class ship, which players will be able to get their hands on in the final game (assuming they can make the right contacts).

=== Fighters ===
Small short-range craft that generally cannot operate independently due to having no jump capability. Their main roles include the defense of stations and the large warships that they are deployed from. Commercial fighters are typically jump-capable and are therefore much more flexible than their faction-specific counterparts.

=== Drones ===
Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures.
