Great Loss

During the borg war no federation entity suffered greater total loses and causalities than the star fighter corp.Stationed mostly on starships in limited flight squadrons they were often the first elements in a direct borg conflict eliminated by the enemy.Multiple squadrons stationed planet side or on starbases had the highest survival rates.After the war and with the success of the Angry Apes publicity star fleet realized that stationing more than a single flight of fighter craft on a starship was an experiment worth trying.Looking over the available ships in the fleet only a scant few of the akira class were capable of carrying more than a single squadron of fighters without sacrificing needed shuttle carrying capacity.

A project was proposed for the first dedicated carrier class design ever in starfleet.

The Proposal

The initial proposal was for a craft of such great size and length that the first four design were turned down as unpractical and unrealistic.Wanted to carry at least five squadrons with one in ready reserve the Carrier would need at least four hanger bays with one filling the need for maintenance.Needing an unprecedented support staff to carry out day to day operations of such a mammoth ship she would also needed multiple crew amenities unseen in most ships built since the galaxy class. One design was submitted that seemed to fill all of the requirements along with being capable of actually being built.Carrying twin warp cores and four warp nacels the carrier would be one of the most complicated ships to ever set out into space.
