=Current U.N.E. Fleet=
The current U.N.E. fleet is made up of the following ships; ''Chimera-S'', ''Orion-X'', ''Nisos'', ''Sovereign-X'', ''Judgement'', and ''Subjugator''. Some are manufactured by U.N.E. itself, while others are produced by 3rd parties and bought by the U.N.E.
==Chimera-s==
The ''Chimera-S'' is the military-grade variant of the commonly known ''Chimera''-Class Destroyer. It packs a greatly enhanced shield generator to assist the ''Chimera-S'' in tackling the Kneall ''Punisher's'' Large Torpedo. In addition, it also has a larger cargo hold than it's civilian counterpart, allowing for increased scrap-looting ability. Both variants of the ''Chimera'' do not have spinal weaponry, and to compensate, have more turrets than other ships of it's size. The civilian ''Chimera'' has been on the market for a long time, but with upgrades the ''Chimera-S'' has been able to remain relevant and a threat to the Kneall. These upgrades have led to the ''Chimera-S'' being identified as a Cruiser, despite the ''Chimera'' being identified as a destroyer. However, these upgrades also come at a cost, as the ''Chimera-S'' is much slower, less maneuverable, and more costly than the non-military variant.
The ''Chimera-s'' is currently used very heavily by the U.N.E., as it's a flexible and cheap destroyer, able to accomplish various tasks, such as fleet support and scouting. The U.N.E. used to use the civilian variant, the ''Chimera'' as it was even cheaper and better for scouting because of it's higher speed. But as the U.N.E.'s doctrine went from area coverage to sheer firepower, the U.N.E. needed a destroyer capable of taking down larger Kneall ships. The ''Chimera-S'' can take down Kneall ''Bruisers'' and can deal serious damage to Kneall ''Outriders''. Multiple ''Chimera-S's'' can even take down the feared Kneall ''Punisher''. It also performs well in fleets, able to take down smaller ships fast and can deal considerable damage to Kneall capitol ships.
==Orion-X==
The ''Orion'' was originally created as a cheap, non-military escort ship. Like the ''Chimera-S'', the ''Orion-X'' is the military version of the outdated cruiser. Instead of making a new ship platform, U.N.E. High Command decided to reuse the Orion platform in an effort to save money for the Odin Program. Despite being outdated, the ''Orion'' has very strong weapons for it's size, which presumably led to the U.N.E. seeing potential in upgrading the ship. The ''Orion-X'' has multiple railguns, making it effective for pestering capitol ships at long range, while the laser turrets make quick work of ships at closer ranges. Unlike the ''Chimera''-Class, the ''Orion''-Class does have spinal cannons, enabling it's pilots to deal incredible damage to targets with shields down. The ''Orion-X'' has almost double the protection and armor of the civilian variant, while boasting similar speed and handling. But the extra engine power required led to the ''Orion-X'' lacking a cargo hold, and led to slightly less firepower. The large amount of armor that the ''Orion-X'' possesses means that the ''Orion-X'' is classified as a Battlecruiser, while it's civilian counterpart is classified as a Cruiser.
The ''Orion-X'' is used by the U.N.E. as a sturdier, more-heavily-armed version of the ''Chimera-S''. It performs similar tasks however, like fleet support and scouting. However, the ''Orion-X'' can take on larger targets than the ''Chimera-S'' can. Just one ''Orion-X'' can take out a Kneall ''Outrider'', and three can take a ''Punisher'' with minimal losses. The ''Orion-X'' is also effective in a fleet, as it's sheer firepower allows for significant damage to capitol ships. But due to the rising cost of maintaining the U.N.E.'s fleet of ''Orion-X's'', U.N.E is considering finding a replacement for the ''Orion-X''. Despite this, it still is a powerful and reliable ship, feared by Kneall across the galaxy.
==Nisos==
The ''Nisos''-Class Battleship is a relatively new addition to the U.N.E. fleet. It is produced directly by the U.N.E, unlike the ''Chimera-S'' or ''Orion-X''. Once U.N.E. command noticed the Kneall's trend towards high shield durability, they decided to make a whole new ship class, dubbed the "''Nisos''" to effectively exploit the Kneall's newly discovered weakness. The ''Nisos'' is a very effective shieldbreaker, as only 1 of its many weapons are kinetic. While the Nisos Program came at a high research and development cost, the ''Nisos'' has proved itself as a very effective ship for countering the Kneall threat. The U.N.E. sells the ''Nisos'' to private companies, which is highly unusual for a powerful, cutting-edge military ship. Their offical reason for this is "To help all of humanity against the rising Kneall threat", but some groups wonder if this is the real reason for the sale of the ''Nisos''-Class Battleship. While its reason for sale might be questioned, it's ability to take out enemy shields cannot be disputed, as the ''Nisos'' is able to fully disable a ''Punisher's'' shields in less than 30 seconds.
Due to the ''Nisos'' recent appearance on the battlefield, it's still only used in small numbers. While their numbers may be small, they have had a huge impact on the invading ''Punishers'' and ''Decimators''. The ''Nisos'' is used mostly in fleets, and is rarely seen alone, as the ''Nisos'' has trouble dealing significant hull damage, so other ships such as the ''Chimera-S'' or ''Orion-X'' are used to support the ''Nisos'' against targets with disabled shields. The ''Nisos'' has plenty of range, due to it's state-of-the-art energy lances, but it struggles against small targets as it lacks light weaponry. The ''Nisos'' is utilized by the U.N.E. in fleets to take out large, high priority targets such as ''Punishers''. While still a new sight on the battlefield, the Kneall have quickly learned not to underestimate this battleship.
