Scott class

## SPACECRAFT CLASS

The ***Scott*-class**, named for the famous Human engineering officer, was a type of spacecraft developed by Starfleet in the early 25th century.

## History

As members of the Alpha Quadrant Alliance sought to rebuild after the Iconian War, they expanded upon the joint starship development projects (Project Chainlink and the C3 Development Project) implemented during the conflict. One of these new efforts, dubbed "Project Miracle Worker," sought to apply engineering innovations gained in recent years to a new series of capitol ships.

The Advanced Starship Design Bureau was given great leeway in designing the starships, which led to unique and experimental designs. Starfleet's designs had a much larger draft than traditional Federation starships. This allowed for the implementation of many of the innovations developed by AQA engineers during the tumultuous first decade of the 25th century.

Eventually, prototypes of the *Scott*-class and its two sister classes (*Daystrom* and *Tucker*) were launched from the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards and proved themselves during the Tzenkethi Crisis and the reemergence of the Hur'q.

## Technical information

Another advancement implemented in the "miracle worker" cruisers was the Cyclical Quantum Slipstream Drive. This system allowed for the vessels to travel at slipstream speeds comparable to Warp 23 for 90 seconds at a time, a significant improvement over previous slipstream drives.
