Sovereign class starship
In the
fictional universe of
Star Trek, the
Sovereign class of
starships are the most advanced ships in
Starfleet around the year 2373.
A Sovereign-class ship has 24 decks, and is equipped with Quantum Torpedos.
Only two Sovereign-class ships have ever been built:
- The original USS Sovereign (NX-73811), prototype of its class and testbed for several new technologies like enhanced deflectors and shields; The program was considered a failure when it turned out that the availiable warp cores at that time were not powerful enough to suit the huge energy needs of the ship's systems.
- The USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E, commanded by Captain Jean-Luc Picard. In contrast to the USS Sovereign, this ship was equipped with conventional shields and deflectors. As of 2373, it is the flagship of the Starfleet.
