The Romulan Trained Fighter is a Romulan Battleship-class hostile that roams Romulan space in Star Trek Fleet Command, spawning from level 20 to 41. Every version is a Battleship, so the short answer is to bring an Interceptor. Each kill raises your Federation and Klingon reputation while costing you Romulan reputation, and it drops Tritanium and Dilithium at most levels, with 4-star Broken Battleship Parts at the top of the range.
How to beat the Romulan Trained Fighter
The Romulan Trained Fighter only appears as a Battleship, so you never have to guess which hull to bring and there is nothing to swap between levels. An Interceptor counters a Battleship, so an Interceptor of the right tier will trade well and take the kill. Match your ship level to the target level and the fight stays comfortable.
For crew, lead with a captain that raises weapon damage against hostiles and fill the other seats with officers that add damage or mitigation. Because this hostile runs from level 20 up, a new player can clear the low end with the cadet crew of Cadet Kirk as captain plus Cadet Spock and Cadet Uhura, which is cheap and dependable. Crews shift with the meta, so check the current officer tier list for up-to-date picks.
Where to find the Romulan Trained Fighter
The Romulan Trained Fighter clusters across Romulan and neutral border systems. The lowest levels sit at warp 13 in starter systems, and the warp requirement climbs with level until the level 41 target sits out at warp 31.

Rewards and what it drops
The Romulan Trained Fighter is a faction-reputation target first. Every kill pays out Federation and Klingon reputation and subtracts Romulan reputation, so it suits a Federation or Klingon reputation grind but works against your Romulan standing. On top of the reputation you pick up raw materials, and ship XP climbs steadily with level, from a few hundred at the bottom to a couple thousand near the top.
| Drop | What it is |
|---|---|
| Federation Points | Federation reputation, raised on every kill |
| Klingon Points | Klingon reputation, raised on every kill |
| Romulan Points | Romulan reputation, which drops when you attack this ship |
| Tritanium | A basic refined material for ship and building upgrades (levels 20 to 39) |
| Dilithium | The currency used across research, upgrades, and crafting (levels 20 to 39) |
| 4-star Broken Battleship Parts | Repair components for 4-star Battleships (levels 40 to 41) |
Romulan Trained Fighter stats
Stats stay on one hull here since it is always a Battleship, but they climb steeply with level, so these three anchor rows show the low, mid, and high end rather than every step.
| Level | Total strength | Hull HP | Shield HP | Attack | Defense | Ship XP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20 | 46,102 | 9,360 | 5,130 | 17,762 | 21,095 | 309 |
| 31 | 520,715 | 89,700 | 49,160 | 220,690 | 230,595 | 664 |
| 41 | 7,987,233 | 5,416,322 | 3,692,941 | 2,487,062 | 945,540 | 2,001 |
Romulan Trained Fighter firing pattern
At the low end, the Romulan Trained Fighter fires a pair of Energy shots every round and a single Kinetic shot every other round. The Kinetic shot is the bigger hit, so time your repairs and mitigation for the rounds it lands.
| Weapon type | Count | Damage per shot | Fires | Crit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Energy | 2 | 2,244–2,743 | Every round | 10% (1.5x) |
| Kinetic | 1 | 5,386–6,582 | Every other round | 10% (1.5x) |
The Romulans in Star Trek
The Romulans are a secretive, militarized offshoot of Vulcans who left Vulcan before it embraced logic and settled the twin worlds of Romulus and Remus. They built the Romulan Star Empire, ruled through the Senate and enforced by the Tal Shiar intelligence service. Romulan strategy leans on stealth and misdirection, and their warbirds pioneered the cloaking device. Lighter Romulan patrol and fighter craft screen the borders and wear down intruders before the Empire commits its heavier D’deridex warbirds. In Star Trek Fleet Command they are one of the three original factions you can befriend or fight.
Is the Romulan Trained Fighter worth grinding?
It earns its place if you are pushing Federation or Klingon reputation, since every kill feeds both while it stays a Battleship you can counter with an Interceptor. It also hands out steady ship XP and a little Tritanium and Dilithium, which helps a newer player level a hull. Skip it if you are protecting your Romulan standing, because the reputation loss adds up. When you run it, match your warp to the level and let the hull counter do the work.
