SSV Orizaba HA-3 (Heavy Assault-3) was a Kilimanjaro-class dreadnought in the Alliance Navy. It was the third ship built when the class was first conceived, alongside the SSV Logan and SSV Kilimanjaro. The ship was briefly commanded by Osprey Wilfield before his promotion to Rear Admiral, where he then transferred to his new command, and his XO, Hannah R. Shepard, was given command of the vessel; she continued to command the vessel well into the Reaper War, where it spent most of the conflict as part of Shield Fleet protecting the Crucible. The ship was present at the Battle of Sol, where it was subsequently destroyed trying to delay Harbinger from reaching London.

The ship was named after the Pico de Orizaba mountain range in Mexico.
