Summary

  • By: Star Fleet is well supplied with affordable types of light interstellar utility and liaison craft.[1]
  • The Firechain network of stealthy sensor buoys numbers approximately 800,000.[4]
  • This decade is the second of two that represents the height of perimeter ship combat on Klingon borders.[5]
  • Research into possible use of dilithium instead of lithium to control warp core reactions continues.[6]
Game-canon may have dilithium replacing fusion reactions, rather than lithium.
  • Star Fleet continues to upgrade its planetary assault capabilities.[7]
  • Star Fleet's operational plans for expeditionary forces require a command unit, due to the lack of availability of established headquarters in an increasing number of sectors.[8]
  • The Mustang class corvettes augment the Battleaxe force in both law enforcement and local defense.[10]
  • Experiments on large linear engines take place, ending in disappointment and even disaster.[12]
This was true of the 2260s, as well.
  • The Suliban continue to be viewed with deep suspicion by galactic powers, living in scattered settlements or assimilating into other cultures as a galactic pariah state.[13]
This condition will continue until the end of the decade.
  • Mid-decade: The Tavares class light transports see frequent defensive combat in the lawless outer trade routes.[14]
  • Late: Destroyers are in general disfavor, due to a de-emphasis on offensive operations.[15]
  • Late: Scientific research is starting to become perceived as a strategic policy.[16]
  • Late: The Vulcan Science Directorate directs their T'Pari class surveyors towards the rimward exploration zones.[17]
  • Late: The massive building programs for the fleet's required support vessels begins to meet the demand.[8]
  • Late: As Star Fleet begins pulling away from utilizing sublight fightercraft by selling off the CF-268 Talions and CF-268A Torches, they begin to proliferate with extra-Federation governments ranging from unsavory to savage.[18]
  • Late: Convoys in the Axanar (and presumably other Klingon conflict regions) remain in effect until now.[19]
  • Late: Perimeter action vessels contain Tholian aggressions.[20]
  • Late: Star Fleet’s shipyard facilities are being served by a bewildering range of general service work pods of differing vintages and design lineages.[21]
