USS Sulu
From FEInfobase
The USS Sulu (NCC-99729) is a Galaxy Refit Class starship commanded by Captain Richard Sade. The ship was named after famed Starfleet Captains Hikaru and Demora Sulu.It started it's life out as a normal galaxy class starship.During the escelating borg conflict sulu and it's sister ship the kirk were rapidly refit with a multitude of weaponry and new systems.Older non combat systems were hastily removed and in some cases just simply cut out of the ships superstructure.Gone were most of the crew quarters and luxuries that had come to define the galaxy class since its first launch.In a moment of what could only be described as pure lunacy both ships were fitting with another third warp nacel as a redundant measure.
The Sulu was finished with her refit from a conventional Galaxy Class in 2483 and launched in 2484 once enough trellinium had been created to power up her warp core. The ship fought in quite a few conflicts during the war.Her lack of a cohesive refit plan lead to many troubles over her career including multiple systems failures and even several warp core breeches which were luckily ejected in time.The galaxy refit class is under powered over gunned and held together with a serious lack of forethought to its design.
Sulu was once ordered to locate the USS Enterprise-F after contact with it was lost while it was at Vulcan (DS1: "The Vulcan Connection")
The ship us currently in the possesion of the renegade bryan cash.Tests are underway on the sulu to try and convert her to Artificial singularity power. Her original warp drive was destroyed recently and trellinium is a difficult and costly substance to produce.
