From The Stargate Omnipedia

Ancientwarship2.jpg

Class of Ancient vessel in service during the First Siege of Atlantis. The craft are equipped with powerful shields and hyperspace engines, and armed with a complement of Ancient drones. A single Zero Point Module powers the ship.

The ship is also equipped with stasis pods to ease the strain of long voyages.

Four ships of this class created by the Lanteans have been discovered: the Aurora, Hippaforalkus (renamed Orion), the Tria (a ship still run by Lanteans who were traveling to Earth at near-lightspeed), and a warship discovered and operated by the Travelers. The Replicators in the Pegasus Galaxy also made a host of ships of this class in imitation of their creators, most of which were lost in their war against the Wraith and the Atlantis expedition.
