Early 24th Century Ships (2305-2330)
Virtually nothing is
known about this era (which I separated from the mid-24th century just
because I sketched up so many vessels from these eras), except that the Ambassador
class is developed in this
time. The ship is much more voluminous than the
Excelsior, and it can be supposed that it is the largest
ship type of the time. A further comparison of design
features shows that the long angular nacelles have been
replaced with a shorter and more rounded type. Also, a
Bussard collector is sticking out from the nacelle tip again like in the
TOS era. Lifeboats hatches are visible for the first time.
The Ambassador has many more windows than previous
designs, and there are also windows on the top of the
saucer. The small phaser domes have been extended to
phaser strips which are located on the top and bottom of
the saucer as well as in other tactically vital places throughout the hull. The maximum speed of the
ships is mere speculation, but it is probably around Warp
9 (new scale). There are other canon ships and ship classes from the era
whose designs were never shown. Furthermore, the Centaur
and Curry may have been
developed in this time, although their Excelsior-derived components are older
and therefore not necessarily typical. Registries are from below
NCC-10000 to about NCC-40000.
