    The Lantean cruiser is an unknown class of Ancient spaceship used by the Lanteans as a complement to their Aurora-class warships. This ship was used by the Lanteans in their attempt to destroy the Asurans. (SGA: "Progeny")

    The Genii eventually locate a Lantean cruiser crashed on a planet during the Lantean-Wraith war, the Avenger, and set to work repairing it. With the help of John Sheppard, they manage to get it to Starbase Atlantis where it was partially repaired, and later to the Genii homeworld. This ship, renamed the Pride of the Genii helps defend Starbase Atlantis during the final battle with Queen Death. (SGA: "The Lost", "Inheritors")

    Notes[]

    • The engines on this ship bear resemblance to the engines on the Asuran cruiser. Anyway, despite the fact the Asurans ships are exact copies of the Ancient ones, it is unknown if both ships are of the same class or different ones.
    • The hyperdrive on a Lantean cruiser is apparently interstellar and slower than an Asgard hyperdrive. It was stated that the Pride of the Genii would lose to the George Hammond in a race from the frozen planet to the Genii homeworld, a mere thirteen hour hyperspace distance for the Lantean cruiser. Even without racing, the George Hammond arrived twenty-two minutes before the Pride of the Genii.
