The Federation Crash Site is a special encounter in Fallout 2.

Characteristics[]

The site consists of a shuttlecraft with Adoni II written near the nose of the ship, half buried in the dirt. There are three dead people wearing red uniforms. They have died from dehydration and carry futuristic-looking "hypos".

The Phazer is a strange, powerful laser pistol of unknown origin. It would only have been acquired in this special encounter.

Behind the scenes[]

  • The whole encounter is a reference to the science fiction franchise Star Trek. The shuttle is virtually identical in design to those of the U.S.S. Enterprise from the Original Series, and the redshirts are the (in)famously ill-fated characters introduced simply to get killed by the episode's monster-of-the-week.
  • The name of the craft (Adoni II) and the name of the starship it originated from (U.S.S. Torres) are both references to Adoni Torres, an intern artist who worked on Fallout 2.
  • The cut Phazer is a reference to the phaser, a weapon used in Star Trek.
  • The U.S.S. Torres apparently had the registry number BMO-0523, with the Adoni II being the Number Two shuttlecraft, as evidenced by the "BMO-0523/2" registry number on the side of the shuttle.
