Notes

The ZEUS is the single most formidable ship in the Federation inventory. With growning tensions on both Klingon and Romulan borders, Star Fleet Engineering went ahead with the plan to launch a new, state of the art dreadnought capable of acting as a forward area battle fleet command ship. Armed with the most advanced weapons systems, shields, and drives, the ship owes much to its cousin, the SOLAR-class command cruiser. However, these ships are not a science ships with tactical command capabilities, they are warships.

Like the CAESAR AUGUSTUS-class heavy cruisers, the ZEUS-class battleships make their purpose abundantly clear. These ships are the strong arm of the Federation. In an age where the Dominion has access to the Alpha Quadrant through two worm holes, at DS9 and DS12, and with growing concerns about the threat of the Borg, advancing unprecedentedly slowly through Romulan space, diplomacy does not always work. In those cases, the ZEUS presents its regal lines to restore peace.

The ship is a needle in space, for all its tremendouns size and bulk. The ship has a rounded wedge-shaped primary hull mated directly to the secondary hull. Three warp nacelles are mounted around the rounded form of the secodary hull. The ship is a compact for its size and meant to provide the least area possible as a target.
