Notes:

The DIOGENES-class is not primarily a fighting ship. But because of the hazardous nature of exploration, it carries a respectable array of defensive weaponry capable of repelling smaller threats and buying time for retreat from larger threats.

Its defensive capabilities are supplimented by an advanced thrust vectoring system that makes it the most manueverable cruiser in Starfleet.

However, what it lacks in firepower, the ship makes up for in equipment for scientific exploration, research, and analysis. The ship's computer has been specifically integrated into laboratory systems to improve the rate of data processing of scientific data, making the DIOGENES-class vessel possibly the top science ship in the Federation.

While the internal volume of a DIOGENES-class starship is on similar order to that of the original GALAXY-class vessels, the two ships differ considerably in design. The saucer section on the DIOGENES-class is more circular in planview and elliptical in cross-section than other saucer designs. The supporting pylon linking the primary and secondary hulls is connected at the front of the primary hull. The warp nacelles are positioned directly below and on either side of the secondary hull. Because of this unusual configuration, the DIOGENES-class cannot separate.

These ships are specifically designed for long ranged missions, often going years between resupply at a Starbase or planet.
