The Dark Pirates Commander is a command and attack coordination unit. The organisational system of the Dark Pirates is both rigorous and flexible. In an attack, a great deal of independence is left to combat units, but mistakes are ruthlessly punished. To control its troops, the Commander is equipped with systems capable of taking remote control of a vessel placed under its orders. If it decides that the vessel is not performing well enough, it can take action immediately.

For its own defense, the Commander has two Microship laser cannons, two heavy dispersion cannons, and above all, two modified laser machine guns capable of making enemy missiles miss their target. It also has in its arsenal blinding cannons which shoot an ulta-powerful light which blocks out all visual systems of targeted enemy vessels for a few seconds.

The basic 'Tactical' mode can be transformed into two different configurations. Sometimes, the Commander must coordinate a ground invasion. To do this, it can change into its 'Ground Monster' mode which can transform its flight elements into jointed mechanical limbs that enable it to move on the ground in all types of terrain. Then, it works like a giant spider, it moves and turns with extreme agility which enables it to aim its firing in every direction.

The Commander can change form to escape detection by enemy systems by transforming into its 'Stealth' mode. The idea is to redirect the angles of its body in order to trap radar rays that touch it. Then, it becomes invisible to radar detection.
