Description
The SSV Exile (SR-3) is a Frigate class starship in the human Systems Alliance military. The Exile is very versatile; boasting a wide assortment of weaponry and built in features.

The Exile, is the third in the Alliance line of Normandy class prototype spacecraft. It is one of three ships equipped with the only "cloaking" type system in the Alliance fleet. This system works by capturing the radiation and heat signatures put out by the ship's engines and stores them in special areas in the hull. It can do this for around 2-3 hours before having to vent and give away its position. The only ways the system does not hide the Exile are when it jumps into or out of FTL travel or if a person in another ship happens to look out a window and see it. The latter of these two is rare since most ships rely on scanners rather than visual contact to see their surroundings and spotting another ship in space is very difficult.

The Exile also has a notably large "drive core" powering it, an experimental piece of equipment called the Tantalus Drive Core. The core is proportionally twice the size of a normal drive equipped on similar sized vessel. This oversized drive core affects the Exile's balance, but it's nothing a skilled pilot can't handle.

------------------------------------
Design based on the Normandy from Bioware's 'Mass Effect' game.

I've always been a big Sci-fi fan. I wish I had my own personal starship, this is what I'd call it too.
