Technology

Specifications for the Th'Nor, T'Loth, shuttles and the Frazi fighter are taken directly from the B5tech website.

Due to the nature of combat Narn ships possess heavy armor plating and are designed with numerous backup systems in addition to highly trained crew that can repair damage during combat. Each of the capital ships is also equipped with machine shops and carries a compliment of drones onboard.

The use of plasma based weaponry is considerably more powerful than a standard staff cannon used by the Gou'ald. The secondary weapons network on each ships uses plasma charges and kinetic rounds classified as interceptors that is used in defense.

Frazi fighters are considered superior is maneuverability, weapons and armor plating allows for numerous strikes

Like many races the Narn have developed robotic drones for use on various roles such as mining, construction and repair.

Hyperspace beacons are small nuclear powered satellites that emit a tachyon that is required for navigation. Each beacon also connects to each other forming a network allowing for beacons to constantly reposition themselves.

In the Babylon universe the FTL method uses hyperspace that relies on beacons for long tern navigation. Navigation without beacons is possible but ships have to travel forming a chain in hyperspace with the furthest ship exiting to mark the area in normal space.

Narn Warriors are equipped with plasma weapons and carry either a dagger of sword into combat as secondary weapons. Their body armor is made up of ceramic plating resembling chest plates that are commonly decorated with their families seal and accomplishments. Land based units also use numerous vehicles that are powered by hydrogen fuel cells.
