2245

Historical Events

• The Ariadne patrol corvette class (and its subclasses) starts receiving a weapons upgrade.

• April 11: USS Enterprise (NCC-1701, Constitution class) is commissioned, with program manager CAPT Robert April in command.

• USS Troy (NCC-423, Siva sub-class) and USS Hellas (NCC-426, same) succumb to Klingon forces at Delta Leonis.

Probably prior to the Final Battle of Axanar. The two names are acquired for the Loknar class.

• September: Final Battle of Axanar, where the battered USS Constitution and three of her half-finished sisters are moved to the forward repair base in orbit of the planet as a lure.

• The last of eight Aldrin sub-class deep space frigates are refit to Magellan sub-class scout cruiser standards.

• The Detroyat class heavy cruiser receives a transporter upgrade.

• Pre-comm Ares (NCC-602, Monoceros class) is damaged beyond salvage during the final construction phase, in what appears to be an accident.

This was later revealed to have been just one of several Romulan acts of sabotage on starship construction that year.
