2236

Historical Events

• The Texas class light cruisers USS Takla Makan (NCC-904), USS Sonora (NCC-907) and USS Taimyr (NCC-920) enter overhaul periods to have their shuttlebays replaced with large deuterium tanks and extensive fuel transfer interfaces, in order to be equipped for use as frontline replenishment tankers.

• The Texas class light cruiser Labrador (NCC-916) enters an overhaul period to receive a ventrally-carried subspace antenna for long range tactical scans.

• The Alexandria class freighters are stricken from the SMM's rolls.

• Archanis, Cursa and Donatu all rapidly fall to the newly-expansionist Klingons.

The date is dependent upon a period just prior to the Four Years War.

• The Triumphant sub-class light cruisers are retired from service with Star Fleet.

• A major Klingon offensive at Zibal is held back because of the perceived proximity of four squadrons of destroyers.

• The final Icarus class battle cruiser is constructed.

• USS Navigator (NCC-950) is the first of 23 new-build light cruisers in the vein of the Rub al Khali refit to be constructed; the sub-class is named after her.

• The final Ishinomaki class fuel transport is completed.

• The initial 50 Bode class heavy scouts are completed.

The Mayer's replacement will be completed after 2236.

• USS Charles Kingford Smith (Byrd class galactic survey cruiser) departs on her 25-year voyage.

• The Marklin class light destroyers enter service with Star Fleet.

• Star Fleet reverts the Hunter class' designation back to corvette, as it became apparent that even these rather modestly armed ships might have to be assigned to the Klingon front.

This occurred in the 2230s, but probably not until this year, when Klingon aggression skyrocketed.

• June: The Taurus sub-class (of the Rochester class cruiser) enters service at Aldebaran.

• The D17 Freeman type fightercraft enters service with Star Fleet.

• The Chiokis Corporation completes construction of the first of four sister vessels to the USS Anton (NX-1225).
