Indefatigable Class

Overview

Starships of the class in service: USS Dennison, NCC-91367

The Indefatigable Class is the latest in a series of designs by the Advanced Starship Design Bureau (ASDB) to increase the response times of ships in high-danger situations and increase survivability. Their primary defense classification is Battleship, reflecting their capability to split into effectively 3 semi-independent starships of high strength. Such vessels are capable of causing a massive amount of damage to an enemy vessel or installation, followed by a quick return to Federation-controlled space if need be. The Indefatigable Class has been designed with high-yield advanced weaponry to fit its assignment as Battleship and the cutting-edge of defenses to ensure maximum crew survival during combat.

The Indefatigable Class Design Project was begun soon after the launch of the Keltoi Class to be the centerpiece of the Starfleet combat fleet. The design team incorporated many changes to the prototype with the success of the Keltoi Class Heavy Battle Cruiser, and the first combat variant of the Indefatigable Class was launched two years later under heavy secrecy. The war with 'rebel forces' outside of Starfleet forced the Utopia Planitia Fleet Construction Yards to launch their five prototype vessels early. Two were hijacked by forces loyal to Admiral LoDona and one was destroyed, the other two have since been fully completed and are part of the Home Defense Fleet, while several dozen more are being constructed.

Tri-Vector Assault Mode Note

The Indefatigable Class ship is a Tri-vector Assault vehicle, it separates into three fully-capable sections while in Vector-Assault mode. All three sections maintain power, supplies and crew for operations of up to 1 year in the event that the other sections are destroyed in combat, and all contain the necessary command functions (bridge, engineering, etc) to retain full autonomy.
