Federation class (Arcane Universe)

The Federation class starship is an example of what the Federation can accomplish in the field of engineering and is a popular option for ceremonies, diplomatic missions, and among the admiralty. There is however a reluctance to deploy these vessels outside the Federation's borders as the lose of a Federation class starship is considered bad for morale and by some member worlds an ill omen.
== Armaments ==
5 phaser banks and two photon torpedo launchers.
== Sensors ==
The Federation Starship features a rear facing sensor dish and a forward facing sensor dish. The rear facing sensor dish permits the craft a greater chance of detecting pursuit which is handy as it lacks any form of rear facing weaponry.
== Shields ==
The largest of the three forward facing dishes is a deflector dish for deflecting debre that could otherwise damage the vessel during warp.
== Engines ==
The Federation class starship has three nacelles and is capable of traveling at warp 9 safely with a maximum speed of warp 11. At warp 12 the vessel runs at high risk.
== Shuttle Bay ==
The Shuttle Bay of the Federation class starship is located in the front of the vessel. One of the two smaller dishes in the front of the craft is a tractor beam dish which can bring an object close enough to the bay for the vessel to maneuver it inside.
== Name Guide Lines ==
The finest ships of this class are named after the terms of a union of states such as; Alliance, Coalition, Confederate, Confederation, Confederacy, Federacy, Federal, Federation, League, Star League, and Union. Though names like Consortium, Corporation, Dominion, and Star Empire have been used. The USS Federation (NCC-2100) is the first ship of this class.
