There are currently two types of capital ships: the [[Farragut Battle Cruiser]] and the [[Majestic Class Interdictor]]. They're heavily armed and can launch several fighter squadrons. These ships are piloted by NPCs. Frontier said in their roadmap that they intend to add the "availability of giant ‘executive control’ ships to players" in a future update.<ref>[http://us2.campaign-archive2.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=1824c0b05a#Lifetime%20Exp Newsletter #29]</ref>

In The Commanders Livestream, a viewer asked "any chance of playing capital ships in the future?", David Braben answered: "it's on the list, but a long way down it, because there's a lot of gameplay to make it work. The issue is what we call the difference between direct control and executive control. Where rather than flying by the seat of your pants you're giving orders to a giant ship. Because you can't expect it to change course very rapidly and that sort of thing. So it's certainly a long-term possibility, but it's long-term."<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McJgSVJQGG8 Elite Dangerous 2.3 - The Commanders Release Livestream]</ref>
