NOTES:

The FRATERNITY-class represents a state of the art starship with
a proud lineage that goes back to the HERMES and SALADIN classes,
or even the FREEDOM class, and shows the added value and versatility
of small, inexpensive ships that require small but dedicated crews
for patrolling, scouting, or scientific exploration and cartographic
duties.

The ship is small but offers more facilities than previous similar
starships. It's fast, extremely maneuverable and sufficiently well
armed to be able to deal with immediate threats and retreat,
if necessary. With a small crew and dedicated specialists,
FRATERNITY-class ships provide more flexibility than aging models
like STINGRAY-class ships, which are very small and limited in
operation. More space allow for better equipment and facilities,
and the ship has a small Hangar bay that holds some small shuttles
for greater flexibility and reach.

The new ILN-70x nacelle series has improved Warp coils using a
system of multiple concentrical layers that provides an exceptional
thermal reaction and allows for softer acceleration curves and finer
control in the local manifold deformation. Dedicated computer nodes,
gathering information in real time, are able to calculate the Warp
bubble geometry tensor at triple the frequency and almost ten times
as precisely as older models. This allows for faster speeds with less
energy expenditure, allowing for faster, longer Warp travels.

One-nacelled ships have, historically, been slower than their
two-nacelled fellow ships because it was harder to balance the Warp
bubble with just one nacelle. The advantage being, obviously, a
lighter, more maneuverable ship. It was also easier to repair, as any
single nacelle would be enough for a replacement, while multinacelled
ships precised of finely tuned and compatible sets of nacelles.

The ILN-70x series allows for never-before matched performance for
one-nacelle ship designs thanks to their superior performance at
adjusting the Warp field, giving them capacities that were never
available to this type of design. And the advantage of replacement
units still holds true.

In addition to the new Warp system, the FRATERNITY-class FF mounts the
latest Gen V D-Warp technology, which coupled with the improved shields
and SRPS-1 radiation phase shielding system, allows for considerably
faster and more robust D-Warp travel in all Hyperspace bands. This
new D-Warp iteration offers improved control over local gravimetrics,
providing extremely agile and responsive sublight flight. Coupled
with the very light and sturdy spaceframe of the ship, this provides
one of the best gravitic plane drive in the whole catalog of StarFleet.

With all these technologies, the FRATERNITY-class vessels are extremely
independent and have an impressive reach and potential.

The ship is comprised by a primary hull (the saucer) that houses
most systems and quarters, and a pylon that connects to the torpedo
launcher and maintenance deck for the nacelle.

The primary hull has 6 decks of 4.5 meters high each, and contains
the bridge on deck 1, the Hangar bay on deck 3, and a small mess
hall on the forward starboard side of deck 3 called 'The Triforce'
or 3-Forward.

The pylon has a small service turbolift and dedicated control chambers
on the different decks (4, 5 and 6) as well as all the energy conduits
and supporting services from Main Engineering. Deck 6 on the pylon
has an Engineering maintenance section and the torpedo launcher.
Ordnance is transported from safe storage through dedicated transport
conduits, with just 6 warheads 'in the chamber' at any given time.

Due to space concerns, the ship doesn't have escape pods but relies
on the shuttle dotation in case an evacuation is necessary.

Starting from the USS MALASPINA, NCC-98510, there's a new variant that
moves the deflector dish to the rim of the saucer to make space for one
extra computer core for improved sensors specialized in planetary
cartography. Ships of this variant are marked as 'Malaspina style'.

Ships of the class are named after abstract, positive concepts of
union and collaboration, or famous scientific expeditions, registry
numbers in the NCC-985xx series.
