The '''hull''' is the body of your [[starship]]. In ''[[Star Trek Online]]'', your hull strength is the overall health of your starship in [[space combat]], comparable to [[Hit Points]] in [[ground combat]].
Once the [[Ship Shields|shields]] have been drained from a certain area, any damage to that area results in damage to the hull. Most shields have a "Bleedthrough" percentage, which is the amount of damage from any enemy's weapons that cause damage to the hull instead of the shields. Your current able [[crew]] level determines the hull regeneration rate of the ship, and also, supposedly, the [[subsystem]] repair speed.
The amount of hull depends on the tier and type of starship, with [[Cruiser]]s and other bulkier ships generally having the most hull, while [[Escort]]s and other more fragile ships have the least, though there is a wide variety—see the [[Playable starship]] page for a rundown of each ship type. The hull strength of [[Small Craft]] scales with the player's level, up to level 50—see [[Small Craft#Hull scaling|Small Craft § Hull scaling]] for details. Similarly, the hull strength of Tier 5-U and Tier 6 starships begin scaling at level 50—see [[Playable starship#Tier 5-U and Tier 6 hull scaling|Playable starship § Tier 5-U and Tier 6 hull scaling]] for details.
