After URC's investment in extra-terrestrial services in several terrestrial planets in 2035, the URC-GFA R&D Combat Division invented the Starship fleets for their astronomical division, called Starships.
Starship Classification
| Class | Command Designation | Assumed Designation | Designated Command Role | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| "Battleship"-class |
|
BCV | Captain | Ships used by the Union during the war with the Kitarians in the early 21st century. Battleships were armed with large central Plasma-Partical Cannons and smaller cannons on the sides of the ship. |
| Cruiser-class | CCV | Captain | ||
| Colossus-class | LCV | Captain | ||
| Exploratory-class A | ECV | Captain | As of an installment procedure by the Kurmtia (a weapons manafacturing species in the URC Terrestrial Union), all Exploratory-class vessels in this classification are pre-equipped with sufficient weapons and improved deflecter screens to deal with adversaries such as the Kitarians. | |
| Exploratory-class B | Captain | Mostly used for light-risk exploration that is not longer than a duration ranging from six to eight months. Weapons systems onboard are proven to only minorly damage certain adversaries and deflecter screens are mostly used for protection against minor attacks. | ||
| Fighter-class | FCV | Weapons Officer | A small, single-seat ship designed solely for combat. The ship's small size, with two powerful quantum rings, made the Fighter a fast, highly maneuverable craft. | |
| Leviathan-class |
|
Admiral | One of the largest vessel classes of the Planetary Union fleet. Leviathan-class ships are commanded by admirals, such as Admiral Alexandra Tingford, who commanded the HMS Black Cat and Admiral Mizui, who commanded the HMS Bloxburg. As such, vessels of this class seem to have been the most prestigious assignments for Union commanders. Numerous Leviathan-class ships participated in the Battle of Roblox. | |
| Pterodon-class | PCV | Weapons Officer | A small, single-seat ship designed solely for combat. The Pterodon was an offshoot of the Fighter-class vessel, designed by engineer Brandon Fayette after the Battle of Roblox. The ship carried dual Plasma Cannons. | |
| Science-class | SCV | Captain | Noticeably smaller in size than Leviathan- and Exploratory-class vessels. However, like the Exploratory vessels, it also held a crew of 300. It was designed for long-term, stationed orbit of planets for scientific research and experimental purposes. Despite its specialized scientific purpose, its onboard facilities were less equipped than those of Exploratory Class A ships. | |
| Transport-class | TSPV | Captain | Designed to ferry Union personnel and citizens between locations at faster than light speeds.
This transport vessel was ill-equipped for combat, and thus a particularly vulnerable target of hostile species such as the Krill. It is the only class without a visible spatial tensor coil. | |
| Captain | Another variant of was designed to ferry equipments between outpost and stations. |
Fleet
URC Terrestrial Union
According to both Admiral Tyler Hartwell and Captain Sierra Kymore, the URC Terrestrial Union Fleet consisted of about 3,000 starships spread across the quadrant as of September 2035. Over 30 of these ships were lost in the Battle of Roblox in February 2039 (and probably many more). Of the Union Fleet, sixteen ships have been identified:

- USS Olympicia, A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of Admiral Kumion in 2038.
- USS Olycia (SCV-183), A mid-level, Science-class vessel.
- USS Piotr (ECV-197), A mid-size Exploratory-class vessel. Commanded by Avian Captain Nyth in mid-September 2037.

- USS Russevolt: Destroyed during the Kitarian conflict.
- USS Musevo: Commanded by Admiral Tyler Hartwell, heavily damaged during the Kitarian conflict.
- USS Vliessa: Commanded by an unnamed female captain.
- USS Pacson
GFA Terrestrial Astronomical Section
As same as the Terrestrial Union fleet, GFA Terrestrial Astronomical section fleet consisted of about 2,100 starships working in union with Terrestrial Union. Over 19 of these ships were lost in the Battle of Roblox in February 2039 (and probably many more). Of the Union Fleet, several ships have been identified:
- HMS Black Cat: A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of Robloxian Admiral, Alexandra Tingford in 2036.
- HMS Android: A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of Avian Admiral, Kp'vta in 2036.
- USS Chikorita: A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of ultra-Kitarian Admiral, Korvak in 2039.
- HMS Winstead: A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of Admiral Kazpa in 2036.
- USS Cozvio: A large-level, Scientific-class cruiser.
- LSC Kirll: A mid-size battleship vessel. Commanded by Kavolian Captain, Indenzus, in mid-September 2037.
- USS Matthew: A large-size battleship vessel. Commanded by Robloxian Captain, Ktha Stace, in late-October 2039
- USS Prvio: A heavy-command vessel.
- USS Burns: A mid-size battleship vessel. Noted to formerly be commanded by then Kitarian Admiral Korvak (after his deflection in 2038) in 2039 before his promotion to Union Admiral.
- USS Orville: A mid-size Exploratory-class vessel. Commanded by Robloxian Captain, Edward Meicer in mid-September 2037.
- BCV Avia: Destroyed during the Kitarian conflict.
- HMS Bloxia, A mid-level, Scientific-class cruiser.
- USS Swanson, A Leviathan-class heavy cruiser and command vessel and flagship of Admiral Hauz in 2038.
- USS Losibak, A mid-level, Science-class vessel.
- HMS Tan, A mid-size Exploratory-class vessel. Commanded by Avian Captain Zor in mid-September 2037.
- USS Quant: Destroyed during the Kitarian conflict.
- USS Rossvolt: Destroyed during the Kitarian conflict.
- HMS Bloxington: Commanded by Admiral Te'Urso, heavily damaged during the Kitarian conflict.
- USS Petria: Commanded by an unnamed female captain.
- USS Pologon
Incidents
- During the Battle of Roblox:
- The HMS Bloxington's Reactor Core malfuctioned mid-battle due to external damage caused by Kitarian gunfire from their species' fightercraft. The Bloxington survived and was later arrived to the Union Dockade at the High Roblox Orbit for repairs following the resolution.
- The USS Quincy's and USS Russevolt's Reactor Core overloaded due to interference caused by Kitarian technology from their species' sieger. Despite all crew members escaped using the starship's escape pod or shuttle: the Quincy and the Russevolt were destroyed due to reactor explosion in the Astor Vlankee sector.
- The USS Quant and the USS Rossvolt's Quantum systems malfunctioned due to severe damages caused by Kitarian interceptors severely damaging the hull. Despite all crew members surviving and escaping using the escape pods or shuttle: the Quant and the Rossvolt was ultimately destroyed due to severe damage near the Ro-Moon.
