- BridgeThe Bridge of the USG Ishimura was the command and control center of the Planet Cracker, a large open section at the front of the ship from which its crew ran the vessel and its mining operations. By the outbreak its displays read only System Failure.
- CMS BrusilovThe CMS Brusilov was a Sovereign Colonies Armed Forces ship that carried a science team to Tau Volantis to study the alien Markers. After its captain received the Scenario Five cleanse order, a maddened scientist purged the ship of air, and the Brusilov drifted dead in orbit for two hundred years.
- CMS CrozierThe CMS Crozier was a battered Sovereign Colonies Armed Forces transport shuttle abandoned in the flotilla over Tau Volantis. Repaired by Ellie Langford's team two centuries later, it carried Isaac Clarke down to the planet before breaking apart in the descent.
- CMS GreelyThe CMS Greely was a Sovereign Colonies Armed Forces research vessel abandoned in the flotilla over Tau Volantis after Scenario Five. Its scientists used the ship to study frozen Alien tissue and, in their final hours, to broadcast a coded order to hide Rosetta from the purge.
- CMS RoanokeThe CMS Roanoke was a Sovereign Colonies orbital command platform that served as the flagship of the Galactic Expedition to Tau Volantis. Left adrift in a mine-saturated flotilla after Scenario Five, it was the first wreck Isaac Clarke and John Carver boarded on reaching the frozen world.
- CMS ShackletonThe CMS Shackleton was a Sovereign Colonies warship sent with the flotilla to Tau Volantis two centuries before the Marker convergence. Reduced to a field of mine-strewn wreckage, it was the first vessel of the lost fleet that Isaac Clarke passed on his arrival at the frozen world.
- CMS Terra NovaThe CMS Terra Nova was a Sovereign Colonies mass driver left derelict among the fleet orbiting Tau Volantis after the S.C.A.F. expedition of 2311. Two centuries later it became a waypoint for Isaac Clarke and the home of a Unitologist cult that worshipped the Brethren Moons.
- EarthGov GunshipThe EarthGov Gunship was a large manned assault craft built to give EarthGov military and security forces firepower, field support and transport. On Titan Station it was used to hunt Isaac Clarke, and one later carried him to safety from the Site 12 Marker.
- Executive Shuttle USG-09: The Ishimura Escape CraftThe Executive Shuttle USG-09 was a private shuttle reserved for the executives of the USG Ishimura. Sabotaged during the outbreak, it became the craft Isaac Clarke repaired to return Marker 3A to Aegis VII.
- SK-1PThe SK-1P was a series of small two-man transport craft built for the Wright Andrews Orbital Ferry System, shuttling personnel between starships and the surface. SCAF used them at Tau Volantis, and Isaac Clarke later crossed the derelict flotilla in one nicknamed the Skip.
- The MuleThe Mule was a Sovereign Colonies aerospace transport assigned to the Tau Volantis expedition. Dispatched to carry the Codex to Dr. Earl Serrano, it crashed on a cliff above Facility Two after its infected crew turned during a storm.
- Unitologist DropshipThe Unitologist Dropship was an armed troop transport used by the Unitologist extremists of the Circle. Marked with Marker symbols and fitted with a ShockPoint drive, it carried squads of fanatics into the field and deployed them from doors on both flanks.
- USG IshimuraThe USG Ishimura was the flagship of the Concordance Extraction Corporation and the first Planet Cracker-class mining ship. After recovering Marker 3A from Aegis VII in 2508, it became the site of a catastrophic Necromorph outbreak that wiped out its crew and bound its name to the history of the Markers.
- USG KellionThe USG Kellion was a CEC shuttle that carried Zach Hammond''s emergency maintenance team to the silent USG Ishimura in 2508, crash-landed in its Flight Deck, and was destroyed soon after the outbreak was discovered.
- USG O''BannonThe USG O''Bannon was a First Responder vessel sent to Aegis VII three weeks after the loss of the USG Ishimura, secretly tasked with recovering fragments of Marker 3A for EarthGov. A Necromorph outbreak aboard left only four survivors before the ship was destroyed.
- USM AbraxisThe USM Abraxis was an Earth Defense Force destroyer of the same class as the USM Valor, dispatched to the Aegis system to recover the four survivors of the USG O''Bannon and carry them to Titan Station, where its interrogation team buried the truth.
- USM EudoraThe USM Eudora was an Earth Defense Force Special Ops vessel captained by Robert Norton. It pulled Isaac Clarke off the New Horizons Lunar Colony during the Unitologist uprising and carried him to Tau Volantis, where it was torn apart by automated mines in the planet's debris field.
- USM IntrepidThe USM Intrepid was an Earth Defense Force shuttle sent after the Second Aegis VII Incident to recover Marker 3A from the USG Ishimura. Lured into an infested cargo bay by a deception, its crew was wiped out by the Necromorphs aboard.
- USM ValorThe USM Valor was an Earth Defense Force Destroyer sent to the Aegis system in 2508 to recover Marker 3A and erase all witnesses. A reanimated corpse aboard one of the Ishimura's escape pods spread the Necromorph infection through the ship, and the Valor crashed into the very vessel it had come to silence.
- VestriThe Vestri was a survey shuttle attached to the USG Ishimura, used to land on the Aegis VII Colony before the planet crack. A handful of survivors used it to flee the Necromorph outbreak, only to be fired on by the Ishimura's defense cannons and forced to crash on the ship's hull.
