Intersystem jump drives enable a spacecraft to enter a subspace node. They are generally found on capital ships or other large craft. Through the end of the Great War, they were considered too expensive to place in small craft such as fighters except in extreme emergency, such as in the GTA's desperate attack against the SD Lucifer in subspace.

During the Second Shivan Incursion, the Galactic Terran-Vasudan Alliance granted the use of fighter-size intersystem jump drives to Special Operations Command for their reconnaissance mission beyond Gamma Draconis, and to the elite 70th Blue Lions during the final evacuation of Capella.
