Notes:

The MONTU class cruiser is the first descendent of the successful
AKIRA class warships that entered service early in the 2330's.  The
revolutionary catamaran configuration of the AKIRA's had proven
itself as an efficient and robust design through diverse tactical
engagements.

The prototype vessel, USS MONTU, was part of Starfleet's competition
to devise a true successor for the aging HOOD class vessels.  Final
testing had been awarded to the MONTU and HIRYU project submittals
of which the latter eventually won.  However, the impressive
capabilities demonstrated in the competition eventually led to a
full refit of the active AKIRA class warships as well as the
construction of a new block of ships using the upgraded design.

A series of technological advancements projected into the MONTU
class have resulted in a warship worthy of her predecessors.  The
incorporation of the revolutionary new SCIMITAR system allows
for faster and more accurate deployment, targeting and coordination
of all weapons and defensive systems during an engagement.  The
SCIMITAR incorporates a new series of tactical sensors, a dedicated
computer core, advanced software, and all available weapon systems
into one integrated package capable of providing tactical dominance
greater than the mere ordinance itself would suggest.

Application of ablative armor to critical areas of the structure, as
deemed necessary from the AKIRA's, has also provided a much needed
defensive boost to the refit design. Likewise the incorporation of a
point defense system adds to defense by providing an additional
defence against missile and projectile attacks.

The Mark II MONTU is equipped with Starfleet's newest phaser systems. 
The XIa enhanced pulse phasers were first deployed in hull pods on 
the NEW ORLEANS Model III (CAVALLA class) light cruisers and made
standard on the FEARLESS and CIRCE-class warships.  The Mark II
MONTU also upgrades her standardphaser systems to the new XI models.
