Description And Notes
The Federation class represents the most powerful military starship of the age. With an enlarged primary hull, generous power systems, and a large array of weaponry, the class exists primarily as a potent deterrent to Klingon and Romulan aggression. In addition to greater weaponry, the class also sports command and control capabilities, making them ideal task-force leaders if hostiles were to begin once again.
The ship class, however, is highly controversial one, as several Federation members (notably the Vulcans) consider it too militant and single-purposed for their tastes for the unified Star Fleet. Its high cost in both construction and in maintenance also gives the Council Appropriations committee great pause in authorizing more ships of the class to be built.
Ships of the Class
With the controversy surrounding the creation of the Federation class, it’s no surprise that only a handful of the vessels would actually see construction and that appropriations would be piecemeal through the 2260s. Eventually, however, the full allotment of twenty Federation class vessels would be fielded to along the Neutral Zone, helping to ensure the peace through the remainder of the 2260s.
