Latest revision as of 19:15, 17 April 2021

The Oberth Class vessel is a very small and compact scout vessel used by the Starfleet in the 23rd and 24th centuries.

Dimensions: 150m x 78m x 46m
Maximum Crew: 80 people
Standard Crew: 73 people
Minimal Crew: 5 people
Cruising Speed: Warp 6.2 / Fold 4.9
Max Speed: Warp 7.31 / Fold 6.25
Emergency Speed: Warp 8.5 / Fold 7 for 30 minutes
Power Source: Fusion Reactors & Matter/Antimatter Reactor
Propulsion: Impulse Engines
Enhanced Warp Drive
Dimensional Fold Drive (Weapons and shields are forced to be offline while operating)
Gravitational Displacement Drive
Deck Plans: Oberth Class Deck Plans

Offensive Systems

4 Phaser Banks (2 Emitters Each)
1 Photon Torpedo Launcher

Weapons systems and shields are given extensive upgades, when the reactor is power running even at warp speeds after being refit the ships shields and weapons allow for a bomber-support role in combat. The ship is less maneuverable than the Refit NX Class, but can take more punishment in combat. The ship only possesses a rear torpedo launcher which it uses to launch low-speed high yield warheads at targets as the ship passes at warp velocities.

Defensive Systems

Deflector Shields
Phasing Cloak (Cannot use Warp Drive while cloaked)

Auxiliary Spacecraft / Bays

1 Shuttle Craft
1 Main Shuttle Bay
2 Cargo Access Bays

-Between the 23rd and 24th centuries the ship plan was adjusted several times. Replacing the communication buoy storage with an arboretum to comply with 24th century crew support regulations for long term missions.  There was also a minor redesign relating to the bridge layout, the two main entry points to the bridge are moved along the exterior of the bridge.

-There are a lot of inconsistencies where this class vessel is concerned.  An excellent write-up about them is posted at  [http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/articles/oberth-size.htm Ex Astris Scientia].  The author does a very good job of detailing the size inconsistencies and how they were resolved for his site.  I use this as a guideline for my own write-up on the design here.
