The UFBS-010 is the primary dreadnought for the Space Corps in the R-Type Series. Heavily armored and outfitted, it is very useful in areas that can accommodate its massive size and is the flagship of choice for most (if not all) large-scale skirmishes.
Similarly to the UFHC-007 Vanargand and other ships of R-Type Command, details on the Heimdall are sparse. It is a collosal vessel, measuring an estimated 1600 meters long, 500 meters tall, and 250 meters wide at its peak. This makes it the largest ship seen to date in the R-Type Series (aside from its successors). Being designed long before the events of Command, it is an inferior design in the period of the game, and was in fact intended to be decommissioned prior to the game's events, but was brought back to serve in the Bydo war.
The Heimdall is the largest ship available to the player in R-Type Command (with the exception of its upgrade the UFBS-011 Tyr.) It is equipped with a Burtgang cannon, a Hull Laser, a Gjallarhorn missile launcher and a Bridge Gun. However the Heimdall is not the strongest ship in R-Type Command; Several larger dreadnoughts are encountered during the Bydo side campaign called the Jotunheim, Muspellheim and finally the Niflheim. The Kombiler is also slightly stronger than the Heimdall.

Trivia
Heimdall was a powerful god in Norse mythology. As the guardian of the Bifrost Bridge, he has superior senses and also possessed the Gjallarhorn, with which Heimdall will pronounce the beginning of Ragnarok.
