The Medbay saw the installation of newer operating beds with more-modern equipment. The Thanix was later replaced with components to turn it into a Mjolnir. The refit led to a newly designated " Normandy-class refit" which will be put into the existing Normandy-class fleet. They also pushed for the Ain Jalut to have a Thanix added but its lack of space required an alteration of the gun, having a single-barreled version installed in the forward section. During this the brass approved the installation of Cyclonic Barriers to offer much better protection as well as Silaris Armor. The vessel is now 15 meters longer than the standard Normandy-class. Due to the damage to the drive core and hull, the vessel was put in drydock for repairs and refit. Official patch design of the marine complement.Īfter many missions the Ain Jalut was substantially damaged on an ONI operation to Tycho Urilla.

Her successes and accomplishments following the loss of the Normandy helped put the class into production. Particulars of its operations since then are classified though speculation has placed it in systems in the Attican Traverse, Skylian Verge and Terminus Systems and one publicized report put it at a batarian colony. Launched nine months after the Normandy's destruction, the Ain Jalut was built to continue the experiment of this controversial design in the Alliance Navy. The Tantalus generates mass concentrations that the Normandy "falls into" allowing it to move without the use of heat-emitting thrusters.

That heat-sinking carries the risk of cooking the crew alive if the stored heat is not eventually radiated.Īlso contributing to stealth is the Normandy's revolutionary Tantalus drive, a mass effect core double the standard size.

Because of exterior hull refrigeration, the ship can travel undetected for hours, or drift passively for days of covert observation. The Normandy, however, temporarily sinks this heat within the hull. Most ships generate tremendous heat that is easily detectable against the absolute-zero background of space. A frigate optimized for reconnaissance missions, the vessel uses state-of-the-art stealth technology. The Systems Alliance Space Vehicle Normandy was a prototype starship created as a joint human and turian venture.
