An early 24th century frigate similar in function to the New Orleans class, though on a slightly smaller scale. This class did not fulfill its original batch numbers as construction was halted due to a preference for New Orleans and Renaissance classes. Rarely seen on the front line today, as what vessels remain in this class are often used for research and special ops, such as first contact recon.

*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.
