The White Base was highly modularized, composed of seven basic blocks: the central hangar, the bridge and the living quarters, the engine room and the rear landing port, the two main hangars on the front, and the two main engines at the back. The greatest characteristic of its interior design was the large size of its living area (which was twice that of previous vessels), the presence of an artificial gravity area, and the pass-through deck which connects the stern and the bow. These features greatly increased the ship's operational ability and livability.

The White Base was equipped with two main engines with 32,000 tons of thrust each. These thrusters were fundamentally the same as the ones used by the Salamis-class and the Magellan-class, but were far more powerful, capable of propelling the ship out of the atmosphere with no need for auxiliary boosters. In addition, the White Base was equipped with a Minovsky Craft System. These engines could be detached in case of damage.[
