Revision as of 12:48, 25 July 2026

Historical Events

  • Boliax develops and initiates an assistance plan for the Uzorians: mass colonization of a nearby planet for the refugees.[1][2][3]
The date of this plan is SFC-canon.
The 2262 date is a best guess. The source indicates they were the second of three systems to rejoin the Federation in the 2260s.
  • All Pytheas subclass exploratory cruisers and some Ranger subclass light cruisers receive an upgrade.[5]
  • USS Atlanta (NCC-1440, Baton Rouge heavy cruiser) fights Orion forces in a completely successful mission of apprehending suspected, as well as known and convicted, pirates with zero casualties.[6]
  • During Exercise Have Gun, USS Azrael (NCC-527, Siva Flight II destroyer) suffers a major atmospheric leak and loses 12 crew when she drifts too close to the black star TNC 65823; the vessel—while disoriented—collides with the shields of the dreadnought USS Dominion (NCC-2115, Federation dreadnought).[7]
  • The Icarus and Ashanti class battle cruisers and Apache class heavy destroyers complete the refit period begun in 2259.[8]
  • Eight mothballed Texas class light cruisers are converted and recommissioned as Negrev subclass mine sweepers.[9]
  • Remaining original-type Nelson class scouts are converted to the Sager subclass.[10]
  • The two Moisanen subclass scouts are re-converted to the Sager subclass.[10]
  • The last Hubble class runabouts are decommissioned (and sold in the civilian market).[11]
  • The last HSI(U)-1B 'Bowditch' survey cutter (variant of the old Class G1 heavy warp shuttle) is removed from service with Star Fleet.[12]
  • The three ships of the Einstein subclass enter the yards for refit periods.[7]
  • The conversions of the Abbott subclass heavy repair ships are completed, and the ships begin supporting cruiser operations in deep space.[13]
  • The first set of Grayson class buoy tenders are transferred to the reserves.[14]
  • The eight Coventry class strike frigates complete their auxiliary deflector spires installations.[15]
  • The first of the Thuringia class surveyors start receiving upgrades.[16]
  • The final Hephaestus subclass tender is completed.[17]
  • Resources are first allocated for cruiser-sized vessels solely for exploratory purposes.[18]
This is thru fiscal-year 2266.
  • Construction begins on the Bader class exploratory cruiser.[18]
  • The Solar Mk III cutter design is unveiled, starting the refit periods for the Mk Is, primarily developed around the PB-60 nacelle.[19][20]
  • The orbital troop transport version of the Benares hopper begins serving through several low-intensity campaigns in the restless Dilithium Belt sectors, mainly in support of peacekeeper and police forces.[21]
  • Production of the gunship version of the Benares hopper is ceased.[21]
  • Mass production of the Class F3 light shuttle allows it to be widely deployed aboard starships.[22]
  • The first production run of the Hellespont escort class is completed.[23]
  • The final Graynet class support corvette enters service with Star Fleet.[24]
  • The final Karekh class intel scout enters service with Star Fleet.[25]
  • The Tycho light sublight fightercraft enters service with Star Fleet.[26]
  • The AIG introduces a lighter and more affordable local destroyer type of a very similar design to their earlier Thufir, merging a saucer with an otherwise traditional Andorian layout.[28]
The year is randomly selected, from the years in the decade prior to the Lenthal Flight II escort being commissioned.
  • Star Fleet releases a a request for proposals for a transporter strike frigate capable of rapidly disembarking eight platoons of troops via transporter, maintaining a cruise speed of warp six, and carrying phaser and torpedo armament superior to that of the Coventry class.[29]
  • Early: Construction begins on what started to be a Achernar export heavy cruiser, but becomes a Star Fleet variant instead.[31]
  • January: USS Pompey (NCC-506) begins her propulsive trials.[7]
  • January: USS Suleiman (NCC-508) and USS Sargon (NCC-504) begin their yard modifications to the Pompey subclass standard.[7]
  • January: The final Unity class command cruiser, USS Harmony (NCC-2119), is completed.[33]
  • January: A Klingon advisor is captured and subsequently lynched by a pro-SRC mob, confirming Klingon involvement on the planet.[34]
  • February 28: The six cruisers are handed over.[34]
  • March: The Klingon Empire covertly smuggles heavy artillery, aircraft, and three companies of Imperial Marine Infantry onto Acamar.[34]
  • April 15: On Acamar, the BGU launches a massive offensive; the SRC’s regular army is shattered by the Imperial Marines.[34]
  • April 26: The SRC Ruling Council flees the Acamarian capital, declaring it an open city.[34]
  • April 29: Federation Ambassador T'Sov and her staff evacuate the planet.[34]
  • May 12 (approx.): Operation Barbary Coast is a tactical disaster: USS Totalize is lost with all hands, and USS Lightfoot is captured.[34]
  • Early July: Long-range scans by the USS Marco Polo and scans from the USS Hengist and USS Horsa reveal long-range interspatial missiles (LRIMs)—specifically Klingon Kash-Ro missiles—deployed on Acamar.[34]
  • July 6: USS Constellation intercepts the USS Basra, discovering the illicit weapons.[34]
  • Late July: A Klingon task force under General Kesh masses near the blockade but is hampered by critical fuel leaks and supply shortages.[34]
  • August 8th: The Klingon Empire orders its forces to set "Period Preparatory to a General War".[35]
  • August 14th: Six Klingon D7 warships attempting to approach and land troops on Acamar are turned away by three Star Fleet starships.[35]
  • Late: USS Smith (Byrd class galactic survey cruiser) begins the second round of experimental modifications in an exploration of cruiser-carrier concepts.[38]
  • October 10th: The Klingon-backed government on Acamar is toppled in a popular revolution.[35]
  • End: The last Hopi class large survey cruiser is completed.[39]
"All ten vessels were operational by 2263...": interpreting this as the final ship was completed late in this year (2262).
