Free Space

 * Hey, It's That Voice! (What the heck are you doing in Blue Planet forty to fifty years or so after Derelict, Mackie?! And why do you sound younger?!)

"Bomber - The Terran Bombers Athena, Medusa, Ursa, Zeus, Artemis, Artemis D.H., Boanerges; for the Vasudans, Sekhmet, Bakha, Amun, and Osiris. Shivan bombers include the Shaitan, Nephilim, Seraphim, Taurvi, and Nahema."
 * Standard Sci-Fi Fleet:
 * Small Craft
 * Escape Pod - The Terran/Vasudan Escape Pods Hermes and Ra.
 * Space Fighter

"Interceptor - The Terran fighters Loki, Valkyrie, Perseus; the Vasudans have the Anubis, Horus, Thoth, and Serapis. Shivans, on the other hand, have the Scorpion, Dragon, Manticore, and the Astaroth."

"Stealth Fighter - The Terran fighter Pegasus, and Vasudan Ptah."

"Heavy Fighter - The Terran/Vasudan fighters Hercules, Hercules Mk. II, Ares, and Erinyes; the Vasudans have the Seth and Tauret. The Shivans have the Basilisk and Aeshma."

"Assault Fighter - The Erinyes fits this role perfectly, really. With 8 gun banks you can take down even the toughest Shivan bombers out like flies."

"Space Superiority Fighter - The Apollo, Ulysses, and Myrmidon for the Terrans; the Vasudans have the Thoth. Presumably, the Mara is the Shivans' "superiority" fighter, since it has good shielding, armor, speed, maneuverability, and weaponry."

"Drop Ship - the Satis"
 * Shuttle

"Drop Pod - The Elysium and Argo for the Terrans. The Vasudans use the Isis. Only the Azrael is the ship used by Shivans to have"

...and time for the really, really big ones... "Battlecruiser - The Iceni fits this perfectly; fast (even faster) than the regular Corvette, and about as much firepower as a Destroyer (okay, what the hell, destroyers are actually the biggest ships here!). Oh, and don't forget that Corvette-armored Lilith, small as the typical Cruiser, which can be as deadly to any ship as a Shivan destroyer!"
 * Space Ship
 * Cutter/Corvette/Frigate/Destroyer (well actually, we call them Cruisers) - The GTC Fenris, Leviathan, and Aeolus for the Terrans. The Vasudans have the Aten and Mentu. The Shivans have the Cain, Rakshasa, and the really heavily armored and badass Lilith.
 * Cruiser - The Deimos for the Terrans, Sobek for the Vasudans (oh, and to demonstrate how freaky Shivan anti-capital firepower is, they're basically Red Shirt warships), and the Moloch for the Shivans.
 * Assault Carrier - Though not really designated a Carrier, the Shivan Moloch really is. But it only really launches fighters in a multiplayer mission.
 * Space Freighter or Cargo Ship - In fact, they're literally called "freighters"; the Poseidon, Chronos, and Triton for the Terrans; Ma'at, Satis, Bes, and Bast for the Vasudans; lastly, the Mephisto, Dis, and Asmodeus for the Shivans.
 * Capital Ships

"The Battlestar - The mighty Orion and Hecate destroyers for the Terrans; the Typhon and Hatshepsut for the Vasudans; lastly, the Demon, Ravana, and (nigh invulnerable) Lucifer for the Shivans. Oh, and we almost forgot, the colossal Colossus, as big as but much weaker than the Shivan Juggernaut Sathanas."

"Science Vessel - Only the Terrans have these, and it's called the Faustus."
 * Other Ships

"Space Gun - Again, only Terrans have these, called "Mjolnirs", which, when used in groups, can practically slice apart even the gigantic Battlestars trying to run away from a Jump Node only to be beamed to bits. There are smaller ones, called "sentry guns", used only against fighters; they're the Cerberus, Watchdog, and Alastor for the Terrans; the Vasudans use the weaker Ankh and Edijo guns. Shivans have them too; there's the Belial and Trident."

"Space Station - The only station shown is the Terran Arcadia-class. But we read that the Vasudans actually use "shipyards" to make Bakha bombers, implying that they probably had them too."
