After long service of the original Constitution Class Starfleet command decided to refit the design to modern guidelines in the latter half of the 23rd century. This was done during the construction of the experimental Excelsior Class. The vessel design is so well engineered, being a refit of the then-Flagship the USS Enterprise, that it is still in service today in parts of Federation Space, though in a diminished capacity.

Many of the systems upgrades were contracted out to the engineering arm of Solas Tempus. In conjunction with Starfleet Command the team also worked up experimental refit guidelines for a vessel to be in service of Solas Tempus. Since the parties did not come to terms on a direct exchange of vessels, many of the existing vessels have been in service for a very long time, Solas Tempus began construction on a new prototype Solas Tempus model in 2377.

Upgrades and Rebuilds

Experimental results revealed that the space-frame could be remanufactured with only slight modifications to support extensive propulsion and systems refits beyond the Starfleet standard. Power systems were entirely rebuilt from the ground up incorporating new technologies. As were the computer cores, shield systems, weapons systems, and sensor suites. Two additional drive systems were added, an experimental Gravitational Displacement Drive as well as the Dimensional Fold Drive. The GDD has previously been unavailable on vessels this large, however, new breakthroughs in the design of the drive system and the produced gravitational envelope have been showed to be successful when using the main deflector to assist stabilizing the gravitational flux. It is, however, as yet largely untested.
