Another variation on the old Miranda Class configuration. These ships are fairly low compliment research vessels, sometimes including crew's families, being often deployed on long range research and charting mission beyond Federation borders. The Mediterranean is one class that makes up many in this category, others on the main fleet list being, Oberth, Springfield and Nova Class. Some are listed.

Footnote

-It actually says in the Trek Encyclopedia that the Lalo was in fact a freighter, suggesting that this is the designation for the Mediterranean Class, but until it is entirely known exactly what this class is, does, and looks like, I shall insert the accepted ASDB designation.

 

KEY

O= Operational
OR= Operational after Refit or Repairs
DD= In Drydock for repairs or refit *
T= Training Vessel
U= Under construction prior to preliminary trials
D= Destroyed
Sc= Scrapped or Decommissioned
PD= Presumed Destroyed
M= Missing

*A ship would visit drydock for many reasons, including refits, repairs, servicing upgrades, preliminary trials and testing of new components, and spacedock for similar reasons, as well as crew rotation, reassignment, prep period before redeployment, and so forth.

The listed specifications for ship classes are partly hypothetical, but some data such as ship lengths, weapon stats and crew complements are in some cases canon. For an explanation on the specs, and what the Ship designations mean, see Spec Definitions.
