Notes:

The CAYUGA-class (CONSTITUTION-IV) cruisers continue the evolution of
the revered and tested CONSTITUTION concept, incorporating even more
automation and miniaturization into the design.  She is considerably
lighter than traditional heavy cruisers, and requires far fewer crew
members to operate.

The traditional and canonical StarFleet design has been upgraded to
the newest technologies. Gravitic plane sublight flight drive has
liberated a lot of space, and now hangars allow for more shuttlecrafts
and bigger holosuits for recreation or diplomatic environments
(allowing big suitable spaces for every known race).

The newer automatisms and improvements in distributed computer cores
make for better response times, more computer power and the need
for a smaller crew. This means taller decks--to accommodate all the
new automatisms and conduits--, which means the ship has less decks
than older models of similar size. However, living and working space
is the same (and in cases it's been increased) and laboratories and
hangar space are ample and well equiped.

The new ILN-70x nacelles have dedicated computer nodes to be able to
calculate the Warp bubble geometry tensor at triple the frequency
and almost ten times as precisely as older models and a new system
of concentric Warp coils that allow for a more stable Warp bubble and
better performance and endurance. This allows for faster speeds with
less energy expenditure, allowing for faster, longer Warp travels.

The new Radiation Phase Shields allow for much faster D-Warp speeds
than before. The gravitic-plane dynamic drive provides excellent
maneuverability and accelerations. The spaceframe has been reinforced
with newer alloys and geometries and dedicated internal IDF generators,
generating a very sturdy ship, capable of taking greater accelerations
and allowing for an incredible performance. This allows the XANADU
to make better use of the more efficient and precise Gen 2 gravity
planing drive, making her exceptionally maneuverable.

The ship has 22 decks of roughly 4 meters of height, with the bridge
sitting at deck 1 and the main lounge of the ship on the starboard
side of the forward saucer module in deck 9 called 9-Forward.

The main Hangar bays occupy part of deck 4 and decks 5 and 6 of the
neck. The auxiliary bay is in the secondary hull, aft, occupying
parts of deck 14 and deck 15.
