Design showing the White Hawk from various angles

The White Hawk was a large space-borne craft that featured a sweeping, aerodynamic design. Its white-plated fuselage was vaguely triangular in shape, gradually widening and flattening towards the stern. Upward-swept wings (reminiscent of a hawk's) complemented the design and provided most of the spacecraft's atmospheric maneuvering capabilities. It was supported by five main engines: two dual-nozzle rocket boosters on the stern's ventral port and starboard sides; two large combined cycle engines on the stern's dorsal port and starboard sides; and one large, auxiliary booster engine at the center of the dorsal fuselage.

The ship's bridge and navigational systems were located at the bow of the fuselage.
