Avenger class

'''
===CLASS DESCRIPTION===
----
The Avenger-class is the latest and most powerful weapons platform developed by the S.C.E.. Designed to directly match or exceed the Klingon battlecruisers, this ship combines the pure firepower of ships like the Defiant with a cruiser-sized spaceframe. The entire ship, from the framework outward, has been designed to withstand extended combat.
One of the more notable features of the Avenger is the new Variable Auto-Targeting Armament (VATA) system.   This system adapts to the current needs of the ship, and is controlled indirectly by the CTO.  
The Avenger is also one of the few ships currently operating with cloaking devices.   Despite the occasional moral complaints, the Avenger is typically tasked with combat duties, and has been given every available advantage where possible.

==Variants==
===Avenger===
The "standard" of the class, the Avenger carries the typical armament of the class, but early ships do not include the VICI system as described below.  Avenger-type ships have a standard warp nacelle configuration above the engineering section and behind the saucer. Mjolnir Variant Avenger's nacelles are swept in line with the main hull.
=== Arbiter ===
The Arbiter class is a newer variant of the Avenger which incorporates lessons learned during Iconian war. This version includes most of the recent technological advances, but focuses more on survivability and reliability than cutting-edge.
=== Sentinel ===
The Sentinel variant is a new, state-of-the-art version of the Avenger series designed and constructed in cooperation between the 22nd Mobile and Utopia Planitia. Incorporating many of the newer technologies initially tested on the Solbianca and other new ships, the Sentinel was essentially custom-built to replace the previous USS Sentinel. 
(Editor's note: This variant of the Avenger class is fleet-specific, and should not be confused with the Cryptic-canon star cruiser variant. The Sentinel variant of the Avenger is created within Star Trek Online using a mixture of Avenger and Arbiter parts.)
