-== Information ==
-*Prototypes are largely unfinished proposals, usually pending Terran Navy's necessities, design choices and/or certain scientific advances.
-== ''Edwards''-class Fighter Base ==
- P-Edwards class Fighter Base    11950 tons     215 Crew     1129 BP      TCS 239  TH 0  EM 0
- Armour 10-46     Sensors 1/0     Damage Control Rating 0     PPV 0
- Hangar Deck Capacity 8000 tons     Troop Capacity: 1 Battalion
- This design is classed as a Planetary Defence Centre and can be pre-fabricated in 5 sections
-The Terran Navy plans to place ''Edwards'' spacefighter bases on planets across human space in order to provide colonial territories efficient defensive capabilities, independent of mobile battle groups. However, given the defeat of the Kalugans and warming relations with the Ramshar Empire and Church of Battle Axe, there are no perceivable threats to human colonies to date. Therefore, static planetary defense is not currently one of the Terran Federation's top priorities.
-From the technical standpoint, there's conflicting opinions about the design, mainly around the level of armour required, ground troop capacity and anti-missile defense. Not to mention the lack of a definitive fighter craft design.
-== ''Hydra''-class Fighter ==
- P-Hydra class Fighter    335 tons     50 Crew     82.5 BP      TCS 6.7  TH 13.76  EM 0
-km/s     Armour 1-4     Shields 0-0     Sensors 1/1/0/0     Damage Control Rating 0     PPV 3
- Annual Failure Rate: 1%    IFR: 0%    Maint Capacity 77 MSP    Max Repair 32 MSP    Est Time: 15.88 Years
- MagCon Fusion Drive E780-F (1)    Power 86.25    Fuel Use 7800%    Signature 13.8    Armour 0    Exp 60%
- Fuel Capacity 10,000 Litres    Range 0.7 billion km   (14 hours at full power)
- R7.5/C3 Meson Cannon (1)    Range 75,000km     TS: 12835 km/s     Power 3-3     RM 7.5    ROF 5        1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0
- Fire Control S01.5 60-3000 (FTR) (1)    Max Range: 120,000 km   TS: 12000 km/s     92 83 75 67 58 50 42 33 25 17
- This design is classed as a military vessel for maintenance purposes
- This design is classed as a fighter for production and combat purposes
-The latest proposed design of the ''Hydra'' equips the spacecraft with deadly meson weaponry, not too dissimilar from that witnessed during the Star Swarm encounters of the 2040s. Even though able to ignore even the strongest shields and armour, the suggested cannon is a bulky, rather unwieldly weapon for a fighter. While the ''Hydra'''s offensive potential remains largely unquestioned, the Terran Navy is worried about its survivability, considering the size of the meson weapon and the additional strain the necessary compact fusion reactor (not present in the current design) would put on the fighter's engine.
-The design's ever-increasing tonnage not only decreases the ''Hydra'''s agility, but also the amount of fighter craft its hypothetical carrier would be able to transport and maintain. An example of this concern is the [[Assault Ships (Shadow)|''Corsair'' assault carrier]], which can normally carry five small craft, but would only be able to house three ''Hydras''. Alternative designs propose a lighter fighter, armed with either missile launchers or gauss cannons.
-== ''Jiangwei''-class Light Carrier ==
- P-Jiangwei class Light Carrier    12000 tons     591 Crew     1958.8 BP      TCS 240  TH 500  EM 660
-km/s     Armour 5-46     Shields 22-375     Sensors 16/16/0/0     Damage Control Rating 10     PPV 0
- Annual Failure Rate: 115%    IFR: 1.6%    Maint Capacity 1020 MSP    Max Repair 75 MSP    Est Time: 4.36 Years
- Hangar Deck Capacity 6000 tons
- IntCon Fusion Drive E7-M (10)    Power 100    Fuel Use 70%    Signature 50    Armour 0    Exp 5%
- Fuel Capacity 50,000 Litres    Range 10.7 billion km   (29 days at full power)
- Delta R375/20 Shields (9)   Total Fuel Cost  180 Litres per day
- CIWS-160 (2x6)    Range 1000 km     TS: 16000 km/s     ROF 5       Base 50% To Hit
- AEGIS-III Sensor Suite A-20-60 (1)     GPS 2520     Range 20.2m km    Resolution 60
- AEGIS-III Sensor Suite T-2-16 (1)     Sensitivity 16     Detect Sig Strength 1000:  16m km
- AEGIS-III Sensor Suite E-2-16 (1)     Sensitivity 16     Detect Sig Strength 1000:  16m km
- This design is classed as a military vessel for maintenance purposes
-Like the ''Edwards'' fighter base, the ''Jiangwei'''s status depends on the finalization of a viable fighter design. This cruiser-sized carrier is planned to provide battle groups a solid fighter operations platform. The current design would ideally be able to house a complement of approximately 30 fighters, a figure which may be expanded once the proposal is updated to meet recent technological breakthroughs.
-== ''Miner''-class Asteroid Miner ==
- P-Miner class Asteroid Miner    76100 tons     1546 Crew     2074.6 BP      TCS 1522  TH 0  EM 0
-km/s     Armour 1-159     Shields 0-0     Sensors 1/1/0/0     Damage Control Rating 1     PPV 0
- Maint Capacity 17 MSP    Max Repair 120 MSP
- Asteroid Miner: 15 module(s) producing 300 tons per mineral per annum
- This design is classed as a commercial vessel for maintenance purposes
-This unnamed, engine-less class is a proposed alternative to self-propelled asteroid miners like the [[Asteroid Miners (Shadow)|''Maadi'']]. While not particularly lighter, these platforms would utilize the mass otherwise taken up by large commercial engines and fuel storage tanks to enhance the vessel's efficiency through additional mining modules. [[Tugs (Shadow)|Atlas-class tugs]] would be responsible for their relocation.

Aurora is on version 2.5.0 C#, available at the Aurora Forums.
