With great labor and elaborate secrecy, Normandy SR-2 was built by Cerberus to be a larger, more powerful vessel upon the original's destruction.
The Normandy is armed with GARDIAN (General ARea Defensive Integration Anti-spacecraft Network) point defense lasers, a spinal mass accelerator cannon, and advanced Javelin disruptor torpedoes, as well as kinetic barriers. To aid in the stealth, the Tantalus drive allows Normandy to move without the use of heat-emitting thrusters.
The stored heat must eventually be released, otherwise the ship risks cooking her own crew alive. By temporarily "tucking in" and "storing" the heat energy produced within her hull to evade detection, Normandy can travel undetected or drift passively for a lengthy time of observation, though this technique is not without danger. Most of her revolutionary technology is incorporated into her source of propulsion, the Tantalus drive core, which is also the source of her stealth capabilities. The initial Normandy was created in 2183 as an advanced prototype "deep scout" stealth frigate with help from the Turians, a race of aliens who were once hostile to humans. The Normandy derives her name from the Normandy landings of World War II. The Normandy has been praised by critics for her visual design, level design, and her appearance in the original Mass Effect trilogy, where she plays a pivotal role in the war against the Reapers and their servants.Ĭharacteristics and service history Normandy SR-1 She functions as the primary means of transport and base of operations for the player, in the role of Spectre Commander Shepard, and their crew, as they travel throughout the Milky Way and fight hostile aliens such as the Reapers. Both iterations of Normandy have Jeff "Joker" Moreau (voiced by Seth Green) as the pilot in command, while the SR-2 is integrated with an artificial intelligence entity known as EDI (voiced by Tricia Helfer).
An improved version of the ship known as the Normandy SR-2, though no longer a commissioned spaceship of the Alliance Navy, is later constructed by the anthropocentric paramilitary organization Cerberus and appears from Mass Effect 2 onwards. She first appears in Mass Effect as the SSV Normandy SR-1, the product of a joint venture between the human Systems Alliance and the Turian Hierarchy, and described as the most advanced military infiltration starship in the galaxy within the series. The Normandy-class SR are two fictional spacecraft in the Mass Effect video game franchise.
