Romulan War Era (2131-2160)

"Diplomacy? With the Romulans? As far as I'm concerned, the only language they'll ever understand is a torpedo up their ass."

Enemy tactics during the Earth-Romulan War were nothing short of ruthless. Coordinated assaults from Bird of Preys were commonplace and Earth's capital ships could barely hold their own. Indeed, Starfleet was not a military organization and mulitifaceted starships like the NX Class would be outclassed in these lopsided engagements. Human engineers were forced back to the drawing board and previously controversial designs were given a second appraisal to even the odds.























Frontier Era (2241-2270)

Keep On Truckin'
The freighter Ta Yun-Ho guides two other drone freighters towards a supply mission for the survivors of the disaster on Connors' World.























Troubled Era (2271-2300)

Another day at Earth Spacedock; all systems normal.
There's still some exotic places that are often overlooked. Sometimes, the best locales are right in our backyard.
//"Space must have seemed a whole lot bigger back then. It's not surprising they had to bend the rules a little. They were a little slower to invoke the Prime Directive, and a little quicker to pull their phasers. Of course, the whole bunch of them would be booted out of Starfleet today."

























































Golden Era (2301-2335)

24th Century Innovation
Ambassador class lead ship
The New Girl
The new queen of the fleet, the Ambassador class is slated to be Starfleet's next generation explorer. With a wide array of scientific equipment and advanced technology, it is one of the finest designs to see service, pointing to the renewed confidence in the Federation's exploratory endeavors.
Stargazing
In the days before the Ferengi, the Stargazer continues its mission of peaceful exploration.
































Foundation Era (2361-2370)

The Enterprise-D's reign as the Federation flagship was highlighted by her missions of peace and diplomacy. Under the command of Jean-Luc Picard, she exemplified the ideals of 2360s era Starfleet.






























Dominion War Era (2371-2375)

Lost In Space
Two crews are forced to work together in their unlikely predicament. With the prospect of being stranded in the Delta quadrant, Voyager and the Maquis search for clues to understand the Caretaker. With the help of Neelix, they arrive at the desolate Ocampan homeworld.
A Galaxy's Retribution
The horrific loss of the USS Odyssey against the Jem'Hadar dealt a massive blow to Starfleet’s confidence in the Galaxy class. Despite the clear advantage in size and firepower, the lumbering giant found herself struggling against the diminutive attack fighters. It provided insight into several Galaxy class design faults, exposing the clear weakness of her neck section and poorly armored engines. Captain Keogh’s outdated battle tactics were also partly to blame.
As a result, battle scenarios were altered to play to the design’s strengths. New tactics were introduced that emphasized speed and coordinated weapons fire. Maneuverability was essential in engaging Jem’Hadar attack fighters, as current Starfleet shields were rendered ineffective against their phased polaron weaponry. This situation would be further rectified with incremental enhancements of Starfleet phasers during the course of the Dominion War. By late 2373, the tide had turned in favor of the Galaxy class, with the class leader herself taking on the highest number of kills against the fighters.





























Uncharted Era (2376-)

The Sovereign class received a multitude of upgrades following the Dominion War. Perceived blind spots in weapon arcs were rectified with additional phaser banks and torpedo launchers in key sections of the hull. Refinements in shield systems and power management also became welcome additions, with increased performance in virtually all aspects.
Seen here is the USS Concorde, fresh from her six month overhaul in Starbase Alpha Theta VI, circa 2378.
