The Moray-class is a class of nuclear attack submarines in service with the Meridonian Navy. Designed from the outset as multipurpose, long-range fleet submarines in contrast to the diesel-electric Orca-class, which were specialized to conduct duties guarding Meridonian home waters, they were the successor to the TBD-class of nuclear submarines designed to be able to conduct operations in littoral as well as deep-water regimes, and conduct anti-submarine as well as standoff and up-close anti-shipping, special warfare delivery, and intelligence gathering duties.

The Moray-class carry a wide variety of weapons, with 56 munitions able to be carried and launched out of 8 forward torpedo tubes in addition to a twelve-cell VLS carrying cruise missiles. It is capable of integrating with special forces diver launch and recovery vehicles.

30 have been built, with one lost in port due to a fire resulting from vandalism.
