The primary warship of the British Empire is the Majestic class battleship. Three Parsons P400 Triple Expansion Stardrives, based on improved nuclear pulse technology, take up forty percent of the hull space and provide the motive power. The main armament comprises four eight-inch Ultraviolet Lasers, supported by a secondary armament of six quick-firing 12cm QF Ultraviolet Lasers and a tertiary armament of six 10cm QF Railguns. The sensor suite is among the most capable in the Royal Navy.

The Edgar class Protected Cruiser is a half size version of the Majestic, intended for lower priority deployments or for showing the flag where a battleship is not required. The main armament is a pair of 6” C3 Ultraviolet Lasers, while the secondary and tertiary armament comprises half that of the Majestics. The Edgars also have a less capable sensor suite and reduced armour protection.

The Apollo class is a second class cruiser intended for general patrol and escort duties and designed for longer deployments than the larger warships. The primary armament is a pair of quick-firing 5” QF Ultraviolet Lasers, supported by a secondary armament of two 4” QF Railguns. The Apollo has a respectable sensor suite for its size in line with its intended role.

The Astraea class Second Class Cruiser is a dedicated escort vessel and would not normally be deployed alone. The six 4” QF Railguns would be deadly in close combat but are primarily intended to defend against alien warships armed with torpedoes.

The Medea is a second class cruiser designed to provide jump support to other cruisers of similar size. The armour is lighter than the Apollo or the Astraea and sensors are minimal. However, the Medea is not intended to operate alone and is capable of contributing to combat operations with its armament of two quick-firing 5” Ultraviolet Lasers.

The Pelorus class Survey Cruiser is the second-largest military-engined design in the Royal Navy. Even so, it lacks any weapons and the armour is minimal. The Pelorus is dedicated to long-range surveying operations, both gravitational and geological. Two separate designs were considered, but the convenience of having both capabilities was deemed to be more important.
