Historical Events
- The PB-45 nacelle is identified as a replacement for the PB-21 on the Burke series frigates.[1]
- The first of eight Aldrin subclass deep space frigates are refit to Magellan subclass scout cruiser standards.[1]
- Ships of both Burke and Aldrin subclass frigates receive modernization refits from Chiokis (though about 13 Burkes will not be refit before the program is canceled).[1]
- The final Sherman Mk IIb enters service with Star Fleet.[2]
- The final Heston class battle cruiser is constructed.[3]
- The final Apache class heavy destroyer is constructed.[4]
- The Mandalay subclass courier enters service with Star Fleet.[5]
- The final Miranda class heavy frigate is completed.[6]
- NCC-1859, nominally of the Surya heavy frigate subclass, is completed.[6]
- The Coventry class strike frigate begins production.[7]
- A treaty of non-aggression is signed between the Vestian Council (of Vestios) and the Federation.[8][9]
- Tensions begin to re-heat between Altair VI and Altairs III and IV.[10][9]
- January: USS Ares (NCC-1650) enters service with Star Fleet.[11]
- February: The "Battle of Webirty" proved the Klingons' were experiencing an increasing strategic weakness, as well as desperation.[9][12]
- February: The "Attack on Zal Vhros" proved the Klingons' were experiencing an increasing strategic weakness, as well as desperation.[9][12]
- By March: USS Procyon (NX-L700, prototype extended-range corvette) is ready for launching.[13]
- March: Prototype phaser technology (in the Type V range) enters service on select ships upgraded at the Thranstor and New Aberdeen (Aldebaran) shipyards.[9][12]
- These shipboard weapons were 40% larger than they would be when cleared for fleet-wide use in 2260.
- With Project Procyon, a breakthrough in small vessel warp propulsion is made.[14]
- Construction begins on the Centaurus class couriers & scouts.[14]
- The first vessel had to be operational this year, but had to be after the launching of the USS Procyon herself.
- August: Operational deployment of the Procyon class corvettes begins with USS Shaula (NCC-L702) relieving three Thunderbolt class corvettes of the system patrol of Regulus.[13]
- USS Vela (NCC-L705) relieves two Marklin class destroyers patrolling the Regulus system, which then move out into deep space.[13]
- Time is not stated, other than "soon", which is influenced by the rapid nature of the class' development and deployment.
- Klingon intelligence mistakenly identifies Rigel V as the location of a major military command center (that must be "pacified").[9][12]
- The source material—both the FASA Four Years War sourcebook & the "Surya / Coventry Class Frigate / Heavy Frigate" issue mined for this factoid—are modified for SFC to have Adhara, a fairly remote Beta quadrant location, replaced by Rigel IV, which is more of a reasonable target for the Klingons during this conflict.
