The Leviathan-Class Frigate is the most widely-used ship amongst the U.N.A.F.'s larger classes. being so widely distributed, the Leviathan forms the backbone of most larger U.N.A.F. fleets. It was developed from C.E. 2332 to 2338, when it subsequently entered service and mass production.

Leviathans are designed to be able to serve a number of purposes in the U.N.A.F. First of all, the Leviathan is a carrier. The Leviathan can hold up to 84 Dart Starfighters, up to 6 Hellcat gunships, and up to 4 Raptor bombers in the large hangar situated near the center of the ship. This army of small crafts is very capable of protecting the Leviathan from most dangers, decimating opposing ships, and razing enemy bunkers, bases, and cities.

Secondly, the Leviathan is a battleship. The Leviathan is heavily armed, boasting 2 front-mounted Class-5 fully-automatic depleted uranium shell cannons and 4 side-mounted Class-7 fully-automatic long range explosive cannons. In addition, 24 fully-automatic plasma turrets are mounted on top of the hull to defend against attackers. Finally, the Leviathan's arsenal is headlined by a front-mounted thermonuclear warhead cannon, capable of dealing devastating damage to enemy ships.

Finally, the Leviathan can serve as a home and base of operations for ground troops. Equipped with quarters, living space, and rations to support 250 men and women for up to a month without resupply, the Leviathan provides a comfortable home away from home for many thousands of U.N.A.F. troops. Additionally, the Leviathan is equipped with 26 drop pods, allowing soldiers to be fully equipped and deployed into the field at a moment's notice.

While intruders are a rare occurrence and can usually be fought off by the many soldiers who reside on board, the Leviathan has systems in place to prevent a large-scale hijacking that could result in the theft of valuable military information and technology. The first line of defense is the ship's doors and hatches, which have their sealing mechanisms positioned to prevent the spread of intruders through the ship. The Leviathan is also equipped with 26 escape pods, each containing materials and rations designed to keep up to 10 occupants alive long enough for them to be retrieved by a search and rescue force. As a last resort, the Leviathan's fusion reactor can be overloaded, destroying a large section of the ship's posterior.
