There are 300 Starfield ships that you can buy, capture, and customize, so we cataloged all of them, and where you can find them.
There are over 300 Starfield ships in the game for you to collect, customize, and fly across the Settled Systems. Your ship acts as your home away from home, and provides your basic form of transport. Each ship offers an array of weapons, cargo space, and the ability to hop from planet to planet.

You’ll start the game with the Frontier ship upon completing the Starfield opening mission and tutorial, but it’s worth shopping around for a replacement ship as soon as you can afford one. Consider taking the Kid Stuff trait to get a free ship early on, or try your hand at raiding the Vulture’s Roost and stealing the Dagger hiding there.

We’ve gathered every ship in the game, including their stats, vendor locations, and cataloged a full list of Starfield ship components you can use to upgrade your ships.

With over 300 ships in our database, finding the one that suits you can be quite a challenge, which is why we’ve rounded up the best Starfield ships available in the Settled Systems.
Customizing your Starfield ship
In order to customize your ship, you’ll need to head over to a Ship Services Technician at any of the major Starfield cities, or head to a space station like the Deimos Staryard. From there, you can speak with an NPC and access the Starfield ship customization system, where you can upgrade, replace, remove, and add new Starfield ship components. Upgrading your ship in any capacity can be quite expensive unless you’re making minor adjustments, so make sure you save up some Credits in advance, or use a Starfield console command to get more.
There are 14 stats associated with ships that you can improve by using different parts or components, giving you the ability to customize how you fly:
- Cargo – the amount of cargo space a ship has for Starfield resources, items, weapons, and armor.
- Shielded Cargo – the amount of cargo space designed to hide Starfield contraband from ship scans.
- Crew – the amount of crew you can have on board.
- Hull – the physical hitpoints of the ship. Reach 0, and you’re dead, so keep some Ship Parts to hand.
- Shield – a rechargeable barrier which prevents your ship’s hull from taking damage.
- Jump Range – how far your gravity drive can take you in a single jump.
- Mobility – how easily and quickly your ship turns.
- Top Speed – how fast your ship can travel in a straight line.
- Mass – how heavy your ship is, which affects how many engines you’ll need to turn effectively.
- LAS – short for ‘Laser’ ship weapons.
- BAL – short for ‘Ballistic’ ship weapons.
- MSL – short for ‘Missile’ ship weapons.
- PAR – short for ‘Particle Beam’ ship weapons.
- EM – short for ‘Electromagnetic’ ship weapons.
Fortunately, there are loads of Starfield ship modules from a range of Starfield ship manufacturers which give a unique flavor to every vessel you create.
How many ships are there in Starfield?
From our extensive playthroughs, we have found 300 unique ships exist in Starfield. Finding them can be quite a challenge as ship vendors will have somewhat randomized inventories depending on your Starfield level. Thus, should we find even more Starfield ships, especially when the upcoming Starfield DLC releases, we will be back to update this page.
The Starfield community has already been hard at work creating their own Starfield ship designs, with many fans drawing inspiration from popular media franchises. A few of these ships have even made their way on the Starfield mods scene, allowing you to fly them yourself!
Have a creation of your own you want to share? Let us see what ships you’ve come up with in our Starfield forum.
