The Science Vessel is a good all-round ship compared to the [[Constitution Cruiser|''Constitution''-class Cruiser]] and [[Saber Escort|''Saber''-class Escort]] vessels on its tier. It has excellent shields, a good hull and nicely balanced weapon slots between the fore and aft sections of the ship. The ship itself is small and depending on the [[Starship#Customization|customization]] options players chose it can be half the size of a Cruiser and even smaller than the Escort line. {{:Starship class/FED/Nova}} == Abilities == {{Sensor Analysis}} {{Subsystem Targeting}} == Standard configuration == Federation [[starships]] come with standard equipment and weapons of the lowest [[mark]] available at the ship's minimum rank. The items provided are appropriate to the type of vessel and its related playing style. {{shipequip | mk = Mk II | equip5 = Deteriorating Secondary Deflector | fore1 = Phaser Beam Array | fore2 = Photon Torpedo Launcher | aft1 = Phaser Beam Array | aft2 = Photon Torpedo Launcher }} == Ship comparison == :''The following table compares Tier 2 Federation starships.'' {{Playableshipsbytype|tier=2|factioncode=frd}} == Admiralty ship == {{Admiralty |faction=fed |type=sci |shipshot=Shipshot Sciencevessel1.png |rarity=common |stateng=8 |stattac=8 |statsci=14 |specialability=+8 SCI per EngShip or TacShip }} == Gallery == <gallery> File:Nova_front.jpg|Nova Front View File:Nova_rear.jpg|Nova Rear View File:Nova_side.jpg|Nova Side View File:Nova_top.jpg|Nova Top View File:Aurora_front.jpg|Aurora Front View File:Aurora_rear.jpg|Aurora Rear View File:Aurora_side.jpg|Aurora Side View File:Aurora_top.jpg|Aurora Top View File:Quasar_front.jpg|Quasar Front View File:Quasar_rear.jpg|Quasar Rear View File:Quasar_side.jpg|Quasar Side View File:Quasar_top.jpg|Quasar Top View </gallery> ==Notes== * The ''Nova''-class model received a revamp in late 2021 as part of [[Season Twenty-four: Reflections]] and the release of the ''Equinox''-class. It was also given access to a new screen-accurate hull materials, as well as the new Type 7A hull material and all "legendary" materials. ==External links== {{Link|11499863-updates-to-the-nova-family-of-ships|Updates to the Nova Family of Ships|12 October 2021}} {{playable ship nav}}
