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.[3]
  • This decade is the second of two that represents the height of perimeter ship combat on Klingon borders.[4]
  • Research into possible use of dilithium instead of lithium to control warp core reactions continues.[5]
Game-canon may have dilithium replacing fusion reactions, rather than lithium.
  • Star Fleet continues to upgrade its planetary assault capabilities.[6]
  • 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.[7]
  • The Mustang class corvettes augment the Battleaxe force in both law enforcement and local defense.[9]
  • Experiments on large linear engines take place, ending in disappointment and even disaster.[11]
This was true of the 2260s, as well.
  • Mid-decade: The Tavares class light transports see frequent defensive combat in the lawless outer trade routes.[13]
  • Late: Destroyers are in general disfavor, due to a de-emphasis on offensive operations.[14]
  • Late: Scientific research is starting to become perceived as a strategic policy.[15]
  • Late: The Vulcan Science Directorate directs their T'Pari class surveyors towards the rimward exploration zones.[16]
  • Late: The massive building programs for the fleet's required support vessels begins to meet the demand.[7]
  • 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.[17]
  • Late: Convoys in the Axanar (and presumably other Klingon conflict regions) remain in effect until now.[18]
  • Late: Perimeter action vessels contain Tholian aggressions.[19]
  • Late: Star Fleet’s shipyard facilities are being served by a bewildering range of general service work pods of differing vintages and design lineages.[20]

Years

Events

  • The Federation Transit Authority re-modernizes its former Drexler frigates, re-naming them as Masterson class high endurance cutters, focusing on spacelane patrol, SAR and anti-piracy tasks.[21]
  • A Klingon opera on the discovery of the paradise planet Hydra II by CAPT Marvin D. Goodwell of the USS Poseidon (Mann class) is censored out of existence.[22]
  • Shortly after 2253, the six Nordenskiöld subclass light cruisers log more star hours than any of the regular units for the remainder of the decade.[23]
  • The remaining Detroyat class heavy destroyers are assigned to deep space escort duty when other more appropriate tasks are lacking.[24]
  • Star Fleet develops the specialized Type S small cargo pods for military replenishment missions.[25]
  • USS Truman (NCC-1115, Proxima class) continues to serve as the command ship in anti-Klingon actions.[26]
  • The Federation opens relations with the Hydran Kingdom, cold war partners against the Klingons and the Lyrans.[27]
It is presumed the contact occurs in this decade, based on it having occurred "recently."
  • Additional miniaturized warp systems began to emerge.[28]
  • The Constitution class heavy cruisers undergo a major refit/upgrade.[29]
  • Production requirements for the Cochrane class colonizer is now set at 200; eight additional construction docks above Ganymede are so allocated.[30]
  • Andorian forces clash with the Landorians in the Xaridian region, until decisive political measures are taken to pacify the latter. The action against Landorians leads to a surprising and unprecedented solidification of the multifaceted Andorian society.[31]
  • The Benning class heavy frigates receive improvements to their small craft support facilities.[32]
  • Moving cargo from a container to a planetary surface by site-to-site transporting is not yet a feasible technique.[33]
  • Early: Downgraded models of the Procyon corvette class are created for interested foreign operators.[34]
