Notes: The Galaxy class was Starfleet's flagship class during the mid 24th century. The Galaxy was designed to be a multi-purpose mission platform, intended to replace all older classes. The Galaxy class possesses advance general purpose scientific and exploration resources; this makes the Galaxy ideal for long term exploration missions independent of Starfleet resources. The Galaxy class was also equipped with state of the art weapon and defensive systems, along with saucer separation capability, which allowed the star drive section to serve as a mobile weapons platform when relieved of the bulk of its mass. Before the advent of the Federation battleships due to the Borg and Dominion threats, the Galaxy class was the choice class for defending the Federation borders and showing the flag as a deterrent for any hostile moves from neighboring species. In addition to this, the Galaxy class was also designed for diplomatic, evacuation, and first contact missions, fulfilling its role as the most capable Federation ship.

Information

After many of the original Galaxy class ships were destroyed early in their lives under questionable circumstances, and the outbreak of the Dominion war, Starfleet upgraded the remaining ships with improved shielding, quantum torpedoes, extra phaser strips on the nacelles, and uprated maximum speed of warp 9.9. These modifications allowed the Galaxy class to remain in service, though their battle role would be replaces by the Sovereign and Defiant classes.
