2260
Historical Events
- The United Federation of Planets rejects the membership bid by Bolarus IX, claiming the Bolians remain unstable. A world government would have to survive the coming of a new generation for the Bolians to prove their commitment to world peace.[2]
- Background material is per the Star Trek Roleplaying Game, Book 7: Worlds. The year is also game-canon, presumed to occur in a short time after first contact, but enough time to allow the planet to meet minimal membership requirements.
- The 2260 date is a best guess. The source indicates they were the first of three systems to rejoin the Federation in the 2260s.
- The Proxima class battle cruisers start decommissioning and are mothballed in surplus depots.[4]
- The Mojave sub-class light cruisers finish receiving weapons upgrades.[5]
- The last of the final 26 remaining Texas class light cruisers to receive overhauls, is completed, as a Texas (II) class light cruiser.[5]
- USS Smith (Byrd class galactic survey cruiser) returns a bit early from her 25-year voyage.[6]
- The early return is surmised, as the ship undergoes experimental modifications in the following year.
- The President of the United Federation of Planets is selected-for the first time-by general election.[2]
- The first of the remaining Larson destroyers are brought to full phaser VII standard, equipped with duotronic systems, and upgraded with other technologies.[1]
- To be clear, this refers to refits of existing Larsons and not the new (i.e. 2261) Mk VI.
- The heyday of the Larson class destroyer begins.[1]
- The PB-32 deep space engine becomes available and immediately provided to the Nelson class scouts/destroyers.[7]
- Two Nelson class scouts are converted to the Moisanen subclass.[7]
- Two Nelson class scouts are converted to the Sager subclass.[7]
- The final Burke Flight IV frigate is decommissioned.[8]
- The final Aldrin Flight IV frigate is decommissioned.[8]
- USS Pompey (NCC-506, Siva Flt II) is reassigned from the Klingon border to propulsive research, receiving a second nacelle.[9]
- The final Keith class surveyor is completed.[10]
- The final Constitution Flight II is upgraded to Bonhomme Richard configuration.[11]
- The ships having served longest in the Bonhomme Richard configurations are the first to be upgraded to the Constitution Flight III.[11]
- The Mo'Kal class light fleet tug enters service with Star Fleet and hundreds more are produced for the commercial market, reducing the costs to Star Fleet as a benefit of mass production.[12]
- Early: Light cruiser USS Texas (NCC-1900) defeats a Klingon D6 cruiser at Iota Eridani.[5]
- Early: Miranda class heavy frigates Aloia (NCC-1841) and Polaris (NCC-1939) are stricken from the active Starship Register due to faults discovered in their spaceframes.[13][14]
- In reality, they were converted to the Soyuz configuration, to engage in anti-cloak operations for Star Fleet Intelligence against the Klingons.
- Early: Production of the first series of the Derf buoy tender/mine warfare ship class begins at Merak II.[15]
- Mid: The first Achernar export heavy cruiser is completed and delivered to the client-state.[16]
- October: The Okinawa class light frigate enters service with Star Fleet.[17]
- By End: The two prototype Derf class buoy tender/mine warfare ships are completed.[15]
