| The space-only //Pandion-class// is a recent addition to Fleet Division's inventory. Viewed from the front, it is vaguely cross-shaped, with the cockpit, engines, and maneuvering thrusters at the center, missile launchers at opposite ends of the vertical arms, and gun turrets at opposite ends of the horizontal arms. It is capable of supporting two crew members, and has a cruising range of approximately three days. The //Pandion//'s cockpit is a vertically-oriented, two-deck arrangement, with the vehicle commander and pilot each having a standing-style acceleration couches and redundant controls behind an armorglas cockpit canopy protected by a jettisonable blast shield. The primary hull is heavily armored, for a fighter, and is capable of surviving a missile strike (although the weapons systems and sensors may be destroyed in the process). | The space-only //Pandion-class// is a recent addition to Fleet Division's inventory.

| The //Magellan// is the Coalition's primary deep-space explorer. Possessing enhanced sensors, a rotational habitat section, and mission-customizable palletized cargo stowage, //Magellan// is capable of extended operation in both regular space and hyperspace. The //Magellan-class// is designed to carry two multipurpose utility vehicles and a transatmospheric shuttle in a large forward bay. | //Magellan// is the Coalition's primary deep-space explorer. Possessing enhanced sensors, a habitat section that rotates to simulate gravity, and mission-customizable palletized cargo stowage, //Magellan// is capable of extended operation in both regular space and hyperspace. The //Magellan-class// is designed to carry two multipurpose utility vehicles and a transatmospheric shuttle in a large forward bay. //Magellan// is the first of the Coalition's starships to have a permanent mixed crew of 'spacers' (persons with the microgravity tolerance gene modification) and 'downsiders', thanks to the habitat module design. |

| The //Cyclone-class// cutter is a short-range "ship's boat" designed to ferry cargo and personnel between objects in space. Fleet Division uses a special variant of this cutter equipped with an ECM suite, armor, and point-defense weapons for placing marines on ships or other spaceborne structures deemed too hostile for direct docking. | The //Cyclone-class// cutter is a short-range, space-only "ship's boat" designed to ferry cargo and personnel between objects in space.
