- -Engines determine the speed and acceleration of a ship.
- -Shields create an extra regenerating layer of defence against hull damage for both ships and stations.
- -Software adds extra functions and capabilities to a ship making piloting and ordering it around easier.

- -Weapons are fired by the main battery of ships to deal damage to targets.
