A vehicle/ship class from the Freelancer universe
The Defender heavy fighter is a popular vessel among the Liberty armed forces. Although it is considerably more sluggish than the Patriot Light Fighter, it makes up for it with a reasonable armament. Capable of taking up to 5 Class 4 weapons and a single turret mount, patrols of these ships are easily a match for Liberty Rogue ships who are their...

A vehicle/ship class from the Wing Commander universe
The Behemoth, the only ship of it's class, was armed with a planet busting superweapon meant for a sole purpose: to destroy the Kilrathi homeworld and end the war in the Confederations favour.  In 2669, as the odds turned against the humans, it was, though still incomplete, rushed into service. It was success...

A vehicle/ship class from the Babylon 5 universe
The Zephyr 109 is a light fighter that was originally constructed by the Belt Alliance, a loose organisation of miners and prospecters that needed ships that were legal and could be used for self defence against raiders and pirates. So was born the Zephyr, a ship that the Belters could construct themselves easily, and one that could be easily main...

A vehicle/ship class from the Wing Commander universe
The Bhantkara class carrier appears to have been the newest of the Kilrathi fleet carriers. Not as large as those used on the assault against Earth, it seems that these vessels would replace older Fleet carriers. They had a twin launch bay and a large flight group consisting of top line fighters from Darkets up to Strakha ...

A vehicle/ship class from the Wing Commander universe
The Broadsword class Bomber was the mainstay anti-capital ship bomber of the Terran Confederation for many years until the introduction of the Longbow in the latter years of the war. Despite it being supplanted in front line service, many Broadswords found their way to the Border Worlds or the Landreich. Although it continued in service...

A vehicle/ship class from the Star Wars universe
The B-wing is an assault fighter, a craft somewhere between a normal fighter and a bomber. Rather than engaging fighters like a space-superiority craft or attacking ground targets like a true bomber, the B-wing is used primarily in an anti-capital ship role. B-wings have respectable speed and fairly heavy armor, though they are not terribl...

A vehicle/ship class from the Battletech universe
The Cameron Class Battlecruiser is an SLDF vintage design which was expected to be a compromise vessel between a cruiser and battleship, fast and powerful, while able to avoid those it could not defeat.  Dassault-Shimmon Enterprises of New Earth was awarded the contract, and the initial vessel took eleven years to build. Unfortunately,...

A vehicle/ship class from the Star Wars universe
The Carrack is a light cruiser, used primarily by the Galactic Empire. The ship is considered relatively small at 350 meters long, but carries significant firepower for its size. Typical weaponry includes ten heavy turbolasers and twenty ion cannons. The ion cannons can be replaced with laser cannons for anti-fighter duty. The Carrack is a...

A vehicle/ship class from the StarCraft universe
Carriers are the principle warships of the Protoss. While not the largest or most powerful ships employed by the Templar caste, they see the most combat. Carriers are large capital ships which deploy masses of Interceptor combat drones instead of fighters. These smallish, highly agile drones attack targets in rolling waves, delivering pl...

A vehicle/ship class from the Trigan Empire, The universe
The Caton Battle-Scout is a basic single seater atmosphere craft of conventional layout. It is obsolete by Lokan and Trigan standards, but despite this, they were able to see off the Lokan Air Fleet when they attacked their country. This is perhaps due in part to the quality of training of their pilots and the ferocity...

A vehicle/ship class from the Alien / Predator universe
The Cheyenne-class dropship is carried on USCMC vessels and is used for the rapid insertion and extraction of USCMC forces into a hostile environment. Two dropships are typically carried on board USCMC vessels. They are operated by a flight crew of two. One is the pilot and the second is presumably the navigator/weapons o...

A vehicle/ship class from the Battlestar Galactica (1978) universe
The Colonial Viper, also sometimes known as the Starhound, is a fast, maneuverable fighter that is the standard interceptor in service with the Colonial Fleet. Requiring only a single pilot, unlike the Cylon Raider which requires a crew of three, the Viper is a sleek distinctive fighter. Three large engines giv...

The Peacekeeper Command Carrier is an awesome vessel, part fighter carrier, part Battleship, part command vessel. A Command Carrier typically carries a large number of fighters including 114 Prowlers as well as a number of other vessels including Marauders. Heavily armed, Command Carriers typically form the core of Peacekeeper battlegroup...

A vehicle/ship class from the Wing Commander universe
Concordia Class Fleet carriers appear to have been the baseline design for Confed carriers in the mid to late part of the war. This appears to have risen out of the need for a certain standardisation of design, and for Terran shipyards to be able to launch more carriers. The Concordia Class could almost be seen as an equivalent to t...

A vehicle/ship class from the Babylon 5 universe
The Condor Class Gunship is a vessel used to support ground troops. It is assumed that it is a sub-atmospheric craft with no space flight capabilities that performs the same role as modern attack helicopters. The Condors were seen in action against the rebel fortress of Akdor in the Sh'lassan Triumvurate by the 356th Marine Division, supp...

A vehicle/ship class from the Alien / Predator universe
The Conestoga-class of starships were originally designed as troop and logistical transports, with little offensive capability. However, as time passed, the ships were upgraded to the point of being considered light assault ships with limited area control and orbital bombardment abilities. These ships mass at 78,000 metric tonnes and are ...

A vehicle/ship class from the Battletech universe
Developed at the same time as the massive Leviathan class warship, the Conquerors were insted as escort carriers for these ships. The hull design is based off an old Star League era craft, the Kimagure class pursuit cruiser, a number of which were in General Kerensky's fleet. The Conqueror has hanger space for ...

The Corellian Corvette, more popularly known as the 'Rebel Blockade Runner,' is a 150 meter vessel used for a wide range of purposes, from simple transport of cargo and passengers, to serving in a diplomatic function. The ships are quite common. While they are not ideal combat vehicles, Corvettes formed much of the Rebel Alliance's capital...
