Design work on correcting the biggest shortcoming of the ''Amchitka'' class, the propulsion system, had already been finished: the modern PB-47 engine and the [[RMR-510 dilithium powerplant]] were adaptable to the light cruiser. Salazaar gambled, and declared its readiness to field three upgraded light cruisers by the end of the following year, with full series production to follow. Yet the Committee for Star Fleet was hesitant to commit. A competing PB-47 light cruiser design had recently been submitted, and would offer significantly greater performance than any refit of the preexisting vessels. The only thing standing on the way of this new class were the old light cruiser hulls, and the Organian Peace Treaty clause limiting the total number of hulls in this category. The orders Salazaar eventually received were not for conversion work, but for dismantling.
