- Collector CruiserThe Collector Cruiser was the only known vessel type used by the Collectors, an immense hybrid of organic growth and metal superstructure. A single cruiser could carry enough troops, creatures, and stasis pods to abduct an entire human colony, and one such ship destroyed the original Normandy in 2183.
- HarbingerHarbinger was the first Reaper ever created, forged from the Leviathans and serving as the template for every Reaper that followed. It directed the Collectors from dark space, possessing them to fight in person, and later led the assault on Earth as the oldest and largest of its kind.
- Keelah Si'yahThe Keelah Si'yah was an Andromeda Initiative ark, a quarian vessel uniquely engineered to carry six different species across the 600-year void between galaxies. Bearing some twenty thousand colonists in cryosleep, it survived a catastrophic plague during its long voyage toward a new home in the Heleus Cluster.
- UT-47 Kodiak Drop ShuttleThe UT-47 Kodiak Drop Shuttle was a rugged personnel carrier capable of planetary flight and limited FTL travel. Nicknamed the Combat Cockroach for its durability, it ferried Commander Shepard's ground teams aboard the Normandy SR-2 throughout the campaigns of 2185 and 2186.
- SSV Normandy SR-1The SSV Normandy SR-1 was a Systems Alliance prototype deep-scout frigate, the first of the Normandy class, co-developed with the Turian Hierarchy under Council sponsorship. She served as Commander Shepard's flagship until her destruction in a surprise attack in 2185.
- Normandy SR-2The Normandy SR-2 was an advanced stealth frigate built as the successor to the original Normandy and served as Commander Shepard's base of operations against the Collectors and, later, the Reapers. Built by Cerberus and later turned over to the Systems Alliance, she became one of the most storied warships of her era.
- OmegaOmega was a sprawling space station built in the hollowed husk of an asteroid in the Terminus Systems, a haven for criminals and outcasts ruled by the asari warlord Aria T'Loak. Often called the dark counterpart to the Citadel, it had no central government and changed hands only through violence.
- SovereignSovereign was a Reaper that posed as the flagship of the rogue Spectre Saren Arterius. Left behind in the galaxy as the Reapers' vanguard, it spent fifty thousand years waiting to summon its kind from dark space, and in 2183 it launched the assault on the Citadel that ended in its destruction.
- SSV NormandyThe SSV Normandy SR-1 was a prototype deep scout frigate of the Systems Alliance, co-developed with the Turian Hierarchy and famed for its experimental stealth systems. She served as Commander Shepard's first command and base of operations before being destroyed by a Collector attack in 2183.
- Tempest: The Pathfinder's Scout ShipThe Tempest was the survey ship of the Andromeda Initiative's Pathfinder team, a state of the art scout vessel used to explore the worlds of the Heleus Cluster in search of new homes for Milky Way colonists. After its sister ships were lost, it became the one of a kind home and base of the human Pathfinder.
