Trojan Class Troop Transport

This is an admitted experiment at making a troop transport from the ST:TMP Era. This a rendition of the Trojan Class Troop Transport from Jackill's Starfleet Reference Manual Vol 2 by Eric Kristiansen. It is a experiment in design and feel free to rip into it as I am still getting familiar with the design rules...such as they are



Entered service: 2278

Overview: The Trojan-Class Troop Transport was conceived during the height of the Cold War between the United Federation of Planets and the Klingon Empire to deliver large amounts of troops and their equipment to areas of conflict for the purposes of assault and peace keeping roles by Starfleet’s ASDB. The ship is fitted with extensive ECM/ECCM and heavy shields to help protect it’s personnel during transport and delivery. To facilitate rapid delivery, The ship is fitted with large high grade combat personnel transporters and many shuttle craft. It is capable of off-loading it’s payload of 1000 personnel, plus equipment in under one minute. The troops are housed in large bunk facilities (20 per room) to reduce the vessels size.

Capabilities: The ship design is atypical for the time, with the primary hull disk based off of the Constitution-class refit of 2272 (RE: Enterprise-Class Refit) with an added on and extended ‘secondary’ hull coming to a length of 297.70m, a width of 141.72m, and height of 32.94m. This was a deliberate design choice be the ASDB to minimize the ships target profile from the fore, sides, or aft of the vessel.
The extended hull contains additional crew quarters, cargo storage and transporter equipment. The underbelly of the vessel contains extensive transporter multi-function arrays to allow rapid mass transport under combat conditions. The bridge is standard for the time, with an emphasis for survey and weapons stations, to allow for rapid assessment of ground conditions and pinpoint targeting of enemy positions and support. Phaser banks are located two on the upper forward hull and after, and three on the lower forward hull and two on the aft. The torpedo launcher is located two decks below and to the fore of the bridge on the primary hull.
