80-04: Out of date vessel that’s extenders are not braced, favored by older farmers. Mentioned in Kaylee’s conversation with the gentlemen of the party.
80-10: Same vessel as the 80-04 just with different plating, the manufacturing company pulled a quick one on its customers. Mentioned in Kaylee’s conversation with the gentlemen of the party.
A.S.R.E.V.: Alliance Short Range Enforcement Vessel. Womack and his cronies use this vessel. Slightly bigger than Serenity, equipped with weapons. Described as an oversized, beat up squad car.
Alliance Cruiser: A large city like vessel that patrols its assigned quadrant. They resemble a group of four skyscrapers put together with giant engines.
Alliance Warship: Smaller than a Cruiser. It is also streamlined and horizontal different from the vertical Alliance Cruiser.
Brutus: A ship docked at the Eavesdown Docks. The Captain of the Brutus tried to get Book to take a ride on his ship.
Cruiser: Mammoth space ships employed by the Alliance, literally think fortress that is able to move on its own. The crew of Serenity has run into three of these ships, but only two are named.
Derelict 1: Converted cargo hauler or a shot ranged scow. Retrofitted to carry passengers, typically bought from auctions and redesigned to provide a one-way ticket to a newly terraformed planet or moon. Wash defines the ship make and Zoe tells us their purpose.
Derelict 2: An Alliance Carrier. Serenity's Crew loots this ship's hold of its high grade food bars.
Fast Burn Rocket Shuttle: Type of shuttle typically equipped on space stations. Book describes this from burn tracks on Ezra.
Firefly Class: Mid-bulk transport with a standard radion and accelerator core, Serenity is an Aught Three, full class code being 03-k64-Firefly. There are 40,000 Firefly class vessels still in use. A Firefly class has ceramic parts in her. River gives the textbook description of Serenity’s ship classification.
Gunships: A vessel the size of a standard shuttle, similar to fighter planes of now. Equipped on Alliance Cruisers used ring in un-co-operative ships
I.A.V. Dortmunder: Alliance Cruiser that stumbles upon Serenity salvaging wreckage and falls for the Cry Baby ruse.
I.A.V. Magellan: The Alliance Cruiser where Book gets his wounds treated, positioned an hour from Jiangyin.
Jubel Early's Ship: A small vessel just bigger than a standard shuttle. Jubal’s ship was most likely top of the line. His ship was augmented with weapons, two rotate-able cannon type weapons on the forward fins. He was somewhat perturbed that River was in the ship and warned her not to touch any buttons.
Luxury Liners: Like Cruise Ships of today Luxury Liners transfer people between planets and for vacations. Rooms on the ships go at exuberant prices attracting the wealthy, Companions ship out with these ships for that very reason. Flashy and big the Liners are confined to the Core Planets for the safety of its passengers. They're seen when Serenity lands on Persephone and referenced to in a flashback when Inara joins Serenity’s crew.
Med-ship: Probably only used in the event of war or a major catastrophe. These vessels are large mobile hospitals.
Paragon: Fancy space ship docked at the Eavesdown Docks, ship shakes because it doesn’t have stabilizers.
Patrol Boat: Probably a mid sized vessel bigger then Serenity and an ASREV. These vessels use a Cruiser as a base of operations but can work independently of them as well.
Research and Rescue Ship C57D: The ship sent by the Alliance to investigate what happened on Miranda. It was the location of Dr. Caron's Holo-Recording of the events that befell Miranda.
S.S. Walden: Private salvage space ship. Comes across the crippled Serenity.
Starlight Intruder: Based off of a design for a ship in the Star Wars Vessels book, it is used to transport large cargo.
Trans-U: Out of service space ship being used by Reavers.
