Duchess Class Mixed-Use Space Station. Depending on configuration, it can support both civilian and military power. In either case, it can house up to several wings of defence fighters and has a single modest defensive beam turret.

Displacement: 0.015 kt. Armament: 1 light beam and 1 drone or torpedo launcher.

Displacement: 45 kt. Armament: 6 long-range beams. Complement: 12 fighters.

Arvonian Command and Control vessel

The basic escort ship of the Arvonian fleet. Displacement: 20 kt. Armament: 4 standard beams.

Displacement: 0.015 kt. Armament: 2 light beams.

Displacement: 25 kt. Armament: 4 medium beams. Complement: 8 fighters.

The Hive Class Light Craft Platform is of Arvonian origin; however, it has been deployed throughout Hegemony space wherever a volume of space needs to be defended or patrolled.

Arvonian Fighter Platform. Contains maintenance, barracks, and command facilities for a large wing of small fighters or bombers. This variant is optimised for Arvonian use.

Hegemony Armored Transport. This design is used extensively both militarily and in civilian use. It is both armed and armored to deal with pirates and raids.

Displacement: 17 kt. Armament: 2 x rapid-fire beams. Heart of the Kralien fleet.

Kralien in manufacture, this is a standardised beam defence platform that can be found in all territories of the Hegemony. 5 x 1.2G beams are its typical loadout, but it is designed with some upgradability in mind.

Displacement: 9 kt. Armament: 2 x standard beams. The most common warship in the known universe.

Displacement: 25 kt. Armament: 2 rapid-fire beams, 1 heavy beam. The most dangerous Kralien ship.

Kralien Drone Cruiser. Slightly modernized cruiser with an early drone launcher design purchased from the Torgoths and manufactured under license.

A Hegemony-designed docking facility for the construction, overhaul, and repair of Hegemony spaceships.

This Industrial Facility is Torgoth in origin; however, it has been co-opted by the Hegemony factions at large. It is designed to extract materials from nebulae for use in many industrial processes.

A high-powered generator. This unit can be modified in a number of ways for various purposes, all of them requiring high amounts of energy. It can remotely beam power to nearby ships or structures, or in some instances be used by onboard equipment.

This device is designed to accumulate huge amounts of power and store it for use with a slingshot array or other super-high-energy device. Whilst the device normally dissipates energy safely on destruction, under some circumstances it can detonate with the force of many anti-ship nukes.

Collection Class Space Station. This mass-produced design is made for cheap manufacture and even quicker assembly on site. This station can be found throughout Hegemony space as a cost-effective station for all but the most specialist requirements.

This is a target antenna for a slingshot array. It is designed to pull ships that are travelling via slingshot towards it, inducing the field to collapse nearby, 0-100K, as opposed to somewhere inside about 20 AU.

The Slingshot Platform design was stolen from the USFP during the Long Bar Conflict. It is an old FTL method that literally flings fleets across several sectors. It can fire multiple times an hour depending on the energy available. After use for between 30 minutes and 3 hours, it requires extensive downtime. Inherently inaccurate, even when the destination has a set-up antenna.

Displacement: 40 kt. Armament: 2 medium beams. The Skaraan's lightest ship of commerce and war.

Displacement: 50 kt. Armament: 4 standard beams. Medium Skaraan ship of commerce and war.

Displacement: 70 kt. Armament: 2 super-heavy beams, 1 medium beam. Very dangerous.

Standard Model Skarran Military Post. This modular design is mass-produced with several configurations for widely separate uses. Designed for use by various Skarran war mercenary groups. The base model is unremarkable, but it has an extensive module bay that may hold additional abilities depending on the owner's purse.

Displacement: 50 kt. Armament: 3 medium beams, 1 drone launcher.

Displacement: 150 kt. Armament: 10 standard beams, 1 drone launcher

Torgoth Command and Control vessel

Displacement: 80 kt. Armament: 6 medium beams, 1 drone launcher.

Displacement: 90 kt. Armament: 4 medium beams, 1 heavy beam, 1 drone launcher.

Chieftain Class Torgoth Base. As per Torgoth doctrine, it has some of the heaviest shields known and an armored hull to boot. It has a relatively wimpy single beam, however, but comes equipped with a drone launcher.

Arrow Class Scout Cruiser. Fast but typically easy to outmanoeuvre, it is used for scouting and interception duties.

Axe Class Cruiser. The Axe is a more general combatant. It is moderately tough to kill, but has a unique multi-barrelled beam array that is capable of firing very rapidly. This is significantly weaker against shields, but devastating against armor and hull.

Command Starbase is catalogued as a station aligned with TSN. No formal database description is currently available.

The Deep Solitude DS Station is designed to exist on the frontiers of USFP space with little to no support. Strong shields, a large cargo bay, and other defences mean it can hold its own. It has a decent science wing and good amenities.

The Allard Industries Fighter Platform is a high-tech mini station designed exclusively as a defensive or patrol point base for light in-system shuttles and combat craft. Often used by the USFP Customs Agency at borders to house inspection craft or at military facilities to provide a greater patrol and defence installation than torpedo or beam batteries.

Industrial Starbase is catalogued as a station aligned with USFP. No formal database description is currently available.

Unity Class Industrial Unit. This is basically a large box where all sorts of additive and reductive processing occurs to produce components or finished items. Typically has a large wing for design.

Oliver Class Jump Tether. This unit tethers and provides critical sensor and nav data to ships wanting to transition the linked naturally forming jump node. Most civilian ships can't travel intersolar without a properly functioning node.

The Vorkosican Class Beam Platform offers a stable power supply for some of the longest-range beams the USFP knows how to construct. Often found at sites of particular importance to the USFP, its design was stolen a number of years ago.

The Elysium class luxury liner was constructed under commission by the Orion Leisure Consortium and remains a hallmark of interstellar opulence within USFP space. It is commonly encountered along major trade routes and in high traffic systems where these vessels provide first class accommodations for diplomats merchants and wealthy travelers. Featuring grand observation decks zero gravity entertainment chambers and full service hospitality suites the Elysium class symbolizes comfort and prestige. Its presence in any system is often regarded as a sign of prosperity and stable relations within the region.

Sword Class Patrol Boat. Used by system defence forces and various licensed security forces.

The Theros Type Industrial Processor, useful for creating many types of components out of refined bar stock, or simply the industrial-scale manufacturing of simple items.

This large unit is designed to break down raw asteroids into useful materials; half of the USFP is built from outputs of units like this.

The Daedalus class science vessel was developed by the USFP Advanced Research Division in cooperation with the Vorex Engineering Guild. These ships can often be found charting unexplored systems and conducting deep space analysis across the USFP frontier. Equipped with advanced sensor arrays and modular laboratories as well as containment facilities the Daedalus class is capable of supporting long term research missions. Its design emphasizes versatility and allows it to conduct everything from planetary surveys to biological and astronomical studies vital to the expansion of USFP scientific knowledge.

Science Starbase is catalogued as a station aligned with USFP. No formal database description is currently available.

ARC-class shipyard — Auxiliary Refit and Construction — A modular support platform designed for the assembly, repair, and modernization of military and commercial spacecraft. The class features expandable drydock frames, heavy fabrication gantries, stores modules, and reactor service booms.

This is a storage area for nearby stations and industrial facilities. Rarely has anything more than a basic docking system and is typically private.

Defensive torpedo battery. Has a large supply of standardised torpedoes. Not especially threatening to a military ship, but very persistent and has a wide area of influence.

The Atlas class transport ship was designed as a reliable heavy lift vessel for both civilian and military use within the USFP. It is frequently deployed to move personnel vehicles and equipment between colonies and has earned a reputation for endurance and adaptability. With reinforced hull plating redundant life support systems and configurable cargo bays it excels in supporting large scale construction projects and emergency evacuations alike. The Atlas class stands as the logistical backbone of the USFP expansion efforts across known space.
