Every ship shall be staffed by several Synesphers, an Aegis Fleet's command vessel will additionally be staffed by a Symbiarch, who assumes operational command of the Aegis Fleet. An armada, or five Aegis Fleets, will be led by a Praetorian. Larger ships than what is allocated to an Aegis Fleet are commanded by a Navigarch. The overall naval command rests with the Supreme Navigarch.

|+ Ship Types & Roles
|-
! Ship Type !! Role
|-
| Dreadnought || Dreadnoughts are the behemoths of the Aionian Phalanx, bristling with the most powerful armaments and protected by nigh-impenetrable defenses. They serve as the flagships for the most experienced void warriors, projecting immense firepower in fleet engagements. Dreadnoughts are often the centerpiece of any major offensive or defensive operation, capable of absorbing tremendous punishment while delivering devastating blows to the enemy. Currently, only one Dreadnought is in operation, and even then, it is incredibly worn down from time, having just awakened with the Epistratum.
|-
| Carrier || Carriers serve as the mobile bases of the Aionian Phalanx, deploying and supporting fighter and bomber wings across the theater of operations. They provide air superiority and close air support for fleet operations, extending the reach of the Phalanx's power. Carriers are vital for maintaining control of space in contested regions, offering both offensive and defensive strategic options.
|-
| Cruiser || Cruisers are the workhorses of the Aionian Phalanx, offering a potent mix of firepower, endurance, and operational flexibility. They are capable of independent operation across vast stretches of space and serve as command and control hubs in Aegis Fleets. Cruisers are adaptable to multiple combat roles, including planetary bombardment, space superiority, and deep-space engagements.
|-
| Destroyer || Destroyers are the principal ships of the line in terms of anti-fleet combat, equipped with powerful weapons systems designed to take on larger ships and protect the fleet from enemy corvettes and frigates. They specialize in anti-capital ship warfare, utilizing a combination of heavy ordnance and advanced targeting systems. Destroyers also serve a critical role in missile defense, shielding the fleet from long-range bombardments. Crucially, Phalanx Destroyer's are designed for ritual sacrifice if required, littering space with hyper-aggressive phages that seek out and consume enemy vessels.
|-
| Frigate || Frigates act as the versatile backbone of the fleet, capable of fulfilling a variety of roles from escort duties to direct combat engagements. They are designed to offer a balance between firepower, speed, and durability, making them suitable for patrol missions, anti-pirate operations, and supporting larger vessels in fleet battles. Frigates often carry specialized equipment for electronic warfare and can operate in the vanguard of a fleet or on the flanks.
|-
| Corvette || Corvettes serve as the swift scouts and skirmishers of the Aionian Phalanx. They are the eyes and ears of the fleet, performing reconnaissance, rapid response, and light harassment duties. Due to their speed and agility, corvettes are ideal for probing enemy defenses, relaying critical battlefield intelligence, and engaging in hit-and-run attacks on softer targets.

! Vehicle Type !! Role
|-
| Bombers || Bombers are heavy assault craft designed to penetrate enemy defenses and deliver devastating payloads against capital ships, space stations, and planetary targets. They are equipped with a variety of weapons, including torpedoes and guided bombs, optimized for destroying heavily armored targets. Bombers typically operate under fighter escort due to their larger size and slower speeds.
|-
| Interceptors || Interceptors are fast, agile spacecraft specialized in engaging and neutralizing enemy fighters and bombers before they can reach the Aionian Phalanx's ships. Their primary role is space superiority, ensuring control of the airspace around the fleet. They are armed with rapid-fire weapons and missiles, designed for quick kills in dogfighting scenarios.
|-
| Assault Fighters || Assault Fighters are versatile spacecraft that strike a balance between speed, armor, and firepower. They are capable of engaging a wide range of targets, from enemy fighters to larger ships, and can perform close air support for ground operations. Assault fighters are the backbone of carrier-based strike operations, adaptable to multiple combat environments.
|-
| Stealth Fighters || Stealth Fighters are specialized for covert operations and surprise attacks, equipped with technology to minimize their detection by enemy sensors. They are ideal for reconnaissance, infiltration, and precision strikes on key enemy assets. Stealth fighters carry advanced electronic warfare and countermeasures equipment, allowing them to operate undetected behind enemy lines.
|-
| Recon Craft || Recon craft are light, fast, and equipped with state-of-the-art surveillance and espionage technology. Their primary mission is to gather intelligence on enemy movements, fortifications, and vulnerabilities without engaging in direct combat. Recon craft are essential for strategic planning and battlefield awareness, providing real-time data to the fleet.

|+ Miscellaneous Vessels
|-
! Vehicle Type !! Role
|-
| Patrol Boats || Patrol boats are nimble and relatively small, designed for rapid response, reconnaissance, and coastal defense operations. In the vastness of space, these vessels patrol the perimeters of important assets, such as space stations and planetary colonies, ensuring security against piracy, smuggling, and enemy reconnaissance efforts. Equipped with moderate weaponry and advanced detection systems, patrol boats are crucial for maintaining the integrity of Aionian Phalanx territories.
|-
| VTOL Craft || VTOL craft are versatile, capable of operating in space, atmospheric, and ground environments. They serve multiple roles, including troop deployment, close air support, medical evacuation, and supply transport. VTOLs are essential for rapid deployment and extraction operations, providing the Aionian Phalanx with unmatched flexibility in deploying forces to hotspots with minimal notice. Their design allows for precision landings in contested or inaccessible areas, making them invaluable for special operations and humanitarian missions.
|-
| Gunships || Gunships provide heavy fire support for both space and ground operations. Armed with a variety of weapons systems, including missile launchers and energy cannons, gunships can deliver devastating firepower to support Aionian Phalanx forces. They are particularly effective in escort missions and supporting ground troops against fortified positions.
|-
| Repair and Salvage Vessels || These vessels are tasked with the repair of damaged ships and the salvage of usable materials from the wreckage. Equipped with advanced repair drones and salvage equipment, they can operate in the aftermath of battles to restore fleet strength and recover valuable technology. Their role is vital in maintaining the operational readiness and sustainability of the Aionian Phalanx fleet.
