High Tech hulls are expensive, yet advanced designs that focus primarily on energy-based weapons with a heavy reliance on Shields. They offer very high raw flux performance but usually require a high demand, either from the flux-inefficiency of energy weapons, or a high shield upkeep. High tech also focuses on mobility, encouraging strike-based configurations that can easily enter and leave the frontlines either to deliver concentrated firepower or to escape when flux is high. This is especially notable in hulls that utilize the unique Phase Cloak ship system.

In addition to the high logical cost of fielding these hulls, some designs require excessive maintenance and do not stand up well under the rigors of prolonged engagements.

Ships in italics are civilian-grade, while underlined ships possess at least one fighter bay, with or without built-in fighter.
