Defensive Systems:
  • Shields: Diaxilated Shield

    • Diaxilatedl:

      • Diaxilated shields are a promising new step in defensive technologies utilizing the understanding that 2 is better than 1 Federation Scientists and Engineers have managed to create an interwining grid allowing greater defense and a resonable power cost.

        In past designs shield emmiters would generate a frontier barrier around the ship composed of Energy Absorbant and Redirection substances along with Gravimetric emmitions in the form of a "net" (ie. many "squares" encompassing the hull).

        With this new advance in technology Shield emmiters are now able to generate Two (2) sets of "Nets" laced into one another to create a more closely bound energy matrix and thus improving shield efficency.

        This is considered a Modification of the Emmiters which are capable of emmiting only a Single web in cases of power sortage with only minor "modifications" to software protocals

    • Capacity: 5,000 MW/Second

  • Hull: Heavy Duranium/Tritanium Double Hull

  • Armor: Polarizing reactive armor (4.0 centimeters)

    • The armor is one of the strangest pieces of technology on the vessel. A derivative of Dominion technology, they are essentially a magnum upgrade of an archaic technology. Called polarizing reactive hull armor, the armor channels an electrical pulse through it, polarizing the electrical charge in it to deflect energy and concussion damage. The last time this technology was used was on the Daedalus-class, before the deployment of the first practical energy-based deflector shields. The cause of its fall out of favor was the limit of how much charge the hull plating could handle. The Dominion used a quitanium alloy in their polarizing armor, which could handle thousands of times more charge over the old style plating. Confederation Fleet R&D had only recently discovered the alloy mix when the Dominion War began. When the Dominion turned over all their ships in the Alpha Quadrant to the Alliance after surrendering, they acquired the forges on board the ships used in forging replacement armor. However, Voyager returned with its deployable ablative armor, rendering the new polarizing armor instantly obsolete before it was even implemented. Confederation Fleet R&D still saw promise in the technology, and continued to research it. Today, the quitanium alloy has been refined to the point where it can more than equal the tensile and insolative strength of deployable armor.

      The advantage that polarizing hull armor has over deployable ablative armor is the mass involved. The material is very lightweight, but can handle a massive polarizing charge. The simulated density of a quitanium armor plate 4 centimeters thick when fully energized is roughly equal to 25 centimeters of old-style ablative armor used during the Dominion War. The one small price paid is that the vessel loses the full-body coverage that deployable armor provides. This, however, is counteracted by the fact the reduced mass, and inversely, increased combat maneuverability, that the ship has. Having the armor charged all the time during a combat situation is a large burden on a ship's power supply. Therefore, the armor is covered in a network of small ionization and nadion particle detection sensors, which commands the armor to flash-charge when a damaging force comes close. The reactive sensor grid was the final piece of technology that made the reactive armor feasible for use once again. Even with this enhancement to the armor, however, while shields are up it still must be kept running at 35% of normal power due to consumption. While this seems low, if the shields over a section, or even total failure, causes the energy being used for the failed shield segment to be channeled to the polarized plating taking it to 100% in the exposed area.

Computer, Personnel, and Propulsion Systems:
  • Computer System: PN Core Mk 1

    • The PN core stands for PhotoNanotech computer core. Derived from the original isolinear technology, the PN core represents the next leap forward in computer technology. Basically, it is a solid-state computing-optimized substrate that utilizes advanced light manipulation technology to operate much faster and in more advanced ways than previous computer models. The PN core itself is a 5 x 5 x 4 cylinder resembling dull grey metal; it is featureless save for data entry nodes and a PTC. The 'metal' is in actuality composed of trillions of nanotech optical computing nodes, organized in a way to take advantage of the wave particle nature of light. It is therefore naturally parallel processing on a huge scale, utilizing quantum computing. The capacity of this core is truly staggering; the core onboard the <insert name of ship here> has the computing capacity of 2 Sovereign class starships circa 2380. So powerful and efficient is the PN core that the resident AI inside of it could easily attain sentience, although the software is limited to prevent this. As if all this computing ability weren't enough, it also utilizes the standard symmetrical FTL field to increase its processing speed even further.

  • Warp Propulsion

    • Warp Reactor - Cryogenic Matrix Warp Core

      • A Cryogenic Matrix Warp Core is in essence a series of smaller cores linked in a Matrix to ultimately create one big core.  Matrix Warp Cores take up about the same physical room in a ship + / - but are 50%-60% more efficient than Non Matrix engines.

        This does Not however mean that Ships utilizing Matrix technology would be able to travel Faster than ships with Non Matrix Cores as FTL speeds are dependant on a number of variables such as astro dynamics nacelle configuration and so on.
