The [[SSV Normandy]] (SR-1) is a [[Systems Alliance]] [[spacecraft]] in the Mass Effect universe. It is the player's main source of transportation throughout the galaxy and offers access to the galaxy map, through which the player selects their destination. The Normandy is not directly controllable by the player. The pilot of the SSV Normandy is [[Jeff "Joker" Moreau]], who claims to be an Ace Pilot. Like the Mako, the Normandy is also very versatile; boasting a wide assortment of weaponry and built in features. |

The Normandy also, as a proto-type alliance spacecraft has the only "cloaking" type system in the alliance fleet. This system works by capuring the radiation and heat signatures put out by he ships engines and stores them in special areas in the hull. It can do this for around 2-3 hours befre having to vent and give away its position. The only ways the system doesnt hide the Normandy are when it jumps into or out of a beyond light-speed transition or if a person in another ship happens to look out a window and see it. The later of these two is rare since most ships rely on scanners rather then visual contact to see their surroundings and spotting another ship in space is very difficult. |
