Colorado Class

 Colorado v1.0 (Feb 24, 2009)

 Colorado Class Cruiser


 - U.S.S. Sparta

 


=====================================================


In 2325, A replacement for the Constitution Class was needed. After the refit of the 
Constitution the Anubis project was a failure, work to  design a new class begin and the 
Colorado Class was designed.

The redesign was not a refit  but a new ship all together. Only the engineering section would 
be reused from the Constitution. Not just a upgrade the Colorado Class was a newer ship that 
was used to the same standards as the excelsior Class ships. The ships outer 
appearance was a modern heavy cruiser for times.

This upgrade gave the Colorado the new phaser Banks, modern sheilding and torpedo launchers,
improved sensors, warpcore, computer systems and so on. 
	
	A new deflector dish, saucer section, and nacelles were also part of the new class.
The up side to these upgrades was the ship has two more science labs then the constitution
and 50 less crew was needed.

Starfleet has refitted the class over the years to keep it in the fleet.

In 2365, the newer technology fully augmented the ships and to this day the Colorado class
has caught up to the refitted Ambassador.

Now the Colorado serves, side by side, with modern Ambassador and Centaur Class ships.

Out of all the ships that underwent the 2325 refit five are in service, all the ships are 
veterans of the Dominion war.
