Hull Plating measures the damage that a unit can receive in combat before being destroyed. In combat, ships give and receive damage. The amount of damage a unit can sustain before being destroyed is given by the Hull Plating. Every unit has a basic value of Hull Plating, which is 1/10th of the ship Structural Integrity (the sum of metal plus crystal used in its production). Besides, each technological upgrade of the Armour Technology gives more 10% of that base value. The initial Hull plating of a unit in the beginning of a combat is given by

  • Hull plating was an external armor component of a starship's or shuttle's hull which allowed for greater resistance against space debris and enemy weapons fire. They were capable of conducting electricity. Prior to Earth's development of shields, Starfleet equipped their vessels with the ability to polarize their hull plating, which allowed for increased hull strength in emergency situations. (ENT: "The Catwalk" et al.) However, even into the 24th century some escorts were equipped with ablative hull plating to allow for increased survivability when shields are lost.

  • Hull Plating measures the damage that a unit can receive in combat before being destroyed. In combat, ships give and receive damage. The amount of damage a unit can sustain before being destroyed is given by the Hull Plating. Every unit has a basic value of Hull Plating, which is 1/10th of the ship Structural Integrity (the sum of metal plus crystal used in its production). Besides, each technological upgrade of the Armour Technology gives more 10% of that base value. It is important to notice that the combat engine gives a probability of a ship exploding proportional to the percentage of the left Hull. This means that a ship can explode even if it still has 50% left of its initial hull (see combat for more detailed explanation on this).

In 2267, Lieutenant Boma expressed his concerns that the Galileo's hull plates wouldn't survive repeated attacks by ape-like creatures. Later, during the electrification of the hull, Commander Spock warned Montgomery Scott not to touch the plates. (TOS: "The Galileo Seven" ) In 2370, Captain Jean-Luc Picard ordered Data to release the exterior hull plate in preparation for jettisoning the warp core. (TNG: "Eye of the Beholder" ) The starboard hull plating of the Chaffee was slightly damaged when it entered the energy barrier of a L-class planet in a rescue attempt of Lisa Cusak of the USS Olympia. (DS9: "The Sound of Her Voice") In 2375, Tuvok reported that an energy wave from a cytoplasmic lifeform vessel had caused minor damage to USS Voyager's hull plating on Deck 15. (VOY: "Nothing Human") In 2376, a spatial fluctuation caused one of the hull plates of the Delta Flyer to fly off. Captain Kathryn Janeway asked William Telfer to beam it to the aft section for analysis. (VOY: "Good Shepherd")
