The Nazca class was built to replace the Laurasia class ships of ZAFT's fleet. Boasting more speed than even an Archangel class, these ships make up the majority of ZAFT's fleet. Probably the most notable is the Vesailius, Rau Le Creuset's ship, which he used to pursue the original Archangel.
After the "Break the World" incident in CE 73, a Nazca class is fitted with a powerful Neutron Stampeder for premature detonation of enemy nuclear weapons.
