Class of Ancient vessel in service during the First Siege of Atlantis. The craft are defended with powerful shields and hyperspace engines, and armed with Ancient drones.

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

Three ships of this class have been discovered: the Aurora, Hippaforalkus (renamed Orion), and the Tria -- a ship still run by Lanteans who were returning home to Atlantis by near-lightspeed.
