Shadow Battle Crab, also known as the Spider, was the standard issued warship of the Shadows. These powerful vessels while all similar in design, varied in size and power. Shadow Warships fell under three sub classes. Class A warships measured about 990 meters*, like the one destroyed by John Sheridan at Jupiter. Class B warships, the most common seen in the Shadow fleet, were on average 1.5 kilometers in length while class C Shadow Warships were nearly 3 kilometer in length.
