An Assarian ship, disparagingly called an "asteroid hopper" by the Fifteenth Doctor, was a spacecraft, broadly resembling a large metal bird, which was capable of camouflage. It was designed for two pilots.

Rogue, a bounty hunter, had one such ship, which was in relative disarray in the aftermath of losing someone important to him, who previously co-piloted. (TV: Rogue [+]Loading...["Rogue (TV story)"])

Though Rogue's ship is not identified in dialogue as Assarian, production designer Phil Sims referred to it as "an Assarian ship" in a behind-the-scenes video, indicating that this name was used at some point in production.
