Eagle class

## SPACECRAFT CLASS

Ventral view

The ***Eagle*-class** was a type of spacecraft developed by Starfleet in the early 25th century. It was classified as a scale 3 fast frigate. The design's layout and features were inspired by the *Aquarius*-class, while its name was chosen to honor the crew of the USS *Eagle*, an *Odyssey*-class vessel lost in the Iconian War.

## History

In its quarter century of service, the *Aquarius*-class proved its efficacy as a fast courier and transport supplementing the missions of the *Odyssey*-class to which it was attached. After the Iconian War, the Federation Council tasked Starfleet with developing a replacement for the *Aquarius* that took advantage of the advanced technologies of the day. Originally looking to update the corvette, as had been done with various other 24th century designs, engineers in the Advanced Starship Design Bureau instead produced a larger vessel for the requested mission profile.

## Technical specifications

The *Eagle* measured 210.3 meters in length, with a height of 44.04 meters, and an in-flight width of 155.2 meters.

### Propulsion systems

Borrowing from the *Aquarius*-class, the *Eagle's* warp nacelles were mounted on variable-geometry pylons.

#### Landing mechanism

The *Eagle* incorporated the ability to effect a planetary landing using antigravity generators, impulse lifters, and landing pads along the ventral hull. Vessels of the class would enter Condition Blue when performing a landing.

### Tactical systems

The class mounted four Type X phasers, all employing Annular Confinement Beam-jacketing devices, and four variable-payload launch tubes, two facing forward and two aft.

## Ships commissioned

It was the standard to name *Eagle*-class vessels after avian lifeforms from Federation member worlds.
