Summary

  • By: The repeated delays on Project Starship have become such a serious issue that secrecy on the project is on the verge of breaking down.[1]
  • By: The introduction of antimatter-powered Battleaxe corvettes provides Star Fleet with an excellent rapid response in-system police vessel.[2]
  • Era of the Four Years War.[3]
  • Over the length of the decade, 500 transports of modern capabilities are provided for in the budgets.[5]
  • Star Fleet begins the transition from the spooled warp coil to solid-state technology.[6]
  • Sorting out meek Imperial reconnoitering missions from reckless privateer raids or the frequent yet futile invasion attempts by weak Klingon factions is a constant pain for Star Fleet border defense forces.[7]
  • This decade is the first of two that represents the height of perimeter ship combat on Klingon borders.[8]
  • First half: The climax of Star Fleet’s attempt to close the gap between Klingon and UFP military strength.[9]
  • Mid-decade: The Orion Wanderer class is developed largely through industrial espionage, greatly influenced by the Star Fleet Procyon design.[2]
  • Second half: The decade is remembered as the Great Awakening, with significant numbers of scientific results from deep space exploration.[10][11]
Guide: 2240-2270 - The Final Frontier suggests the era started in the 2240s, but it would seem that that would not happen until after the Four Years War concludes (in 2245).

Years

Events

  • Research into possible use of dilithium instead of lithium to control warp core reactions is begun.[12][13]
This really began in the 30s, as evident by the use of dilithium in the Constitution development program, Project Starship.
  • All variants of the Horizon class receive new auxiliary craft assignments.[14]
  • The significance of the Willall challenge upon Klingon politicians and scientists is uncovered.[15]
  • USS Truman (NCC-1115, Proxima class) serves as the command ship in anti-Klingon actions.[16]
  • The following battles occur (presumably during the Four Years War): Nozseca (with five Icarus/Ashanti class battle cruisers severely damaged); Donatu (three Icarus/Ashanti class destroyed); Second Arquin (two Ashantis are ambushed with lethal results); Final Axanar.[17]
  • USS Byrd (first of her class) initiates first contact with the Lyran Star Empire during her 25-year voyage of galactic exploration.[18]
The decade is presumed, based upon the assumption the contact occurred on the outward portion of the mission. (It could also occur on the return leg, if the mission plan did not replicate the first leg on the second one.)
  • Marklin class light destroyers see brief service on the Klingon front.[19]
