The Battle of Sol was the climactic confrontation of The Borg War and took place in 2398. Though the battle began spread out across the system with Utopia Planitia and Earth bearing the brunt of the attack, towards the end of the fight, combat began to centre exclusively around Earth.

By March, 2398, the Sol System had become the only remaining stronghold in the Federation. Millions of refugees from the Klingon, Romulan, Ferengi, Gorn and Tholian civilisations amongst others sought refuge from the advancing Borg fleet. Sending scout ships to investigate an adrift sphere later in the year, Romulan Intelligence was able to learn that the Borg had two hundred and thirty one vessels left in the Alpha Quadrant and were preparing to attack the Sol System, specifically the Dominion outpost within Utopia Planitia - the location of the development of a Dominion Pathogen which was wreaking havoc in the Collective. Not willing to wait for the onslaught, Starfleet Command sent four hundred and thirty two vessels to attack Galorndon Core, the site of the Borg's last remaining forward base. Though the base was destroyed, only eight Borg ships met the same fate, though the entire Allied force was lost.

Ark Royal Class
During the Borg War, no Federation entity suffered greater total loses and causalities than the Starfighter Corps.

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 Starfleet realised that stationing more than a single flight of fightercraft on a starship was an experiment worth trying.

However, it was generally known that only a scant few of the Akira class battlecruisers were capable of carrying more than a single squadron of fighters without sacrificing needed shuttle capacity.
