Congratulation the ROB has picked you and only you to be the head negro in charge of Starfleet ship construction and planning. It is the year 2350 and Starfleet is considering production of the Galaxy Class Starship. They are all overjoyed at the plans of this ship however you have knowledge of Future events and you get to veto their recommendation. You get to propose another class of vessel instead and you have the final say these are your choices.
The Valiant Class Starship. This pint sized vessel is the natural evolution of the Future Defiant Class. Boasting more advanced weapons and with all the bugs the Defiant class had ironed out. This ship will secure federation space for decades to come. While not a large vessel you can build a shit ton of them immediately. With your production being 200 vessels by the year 2360.
The Pathfinder Class Science ship: This plucky vessel is and exploration workhorse. It has very advanced sensors. A high cruising speed of around Warp 9.8. And boost weapons that will allow it to preform in the roll of a front line combat vessels. This class of ship can only be made in the numbers of around 100.
The Andromeda Class Exploration Cruiser: You took a look at the designs for the Galaxy Class and furrowed your brow. You then threw those plans in the trash can and pulled out theses schematics. The Andromeda is basically a non glass cannon Galaxy class with better weapons. Better overall endurance at warp and Front line combat capabilites. Ideal for First contact missions and diplomacy missions. Due to it's size being slightly larger than the Galaxy Class it can only be built in the numbers of 75 vessels
The Yamato Class Dreadnought: This is a more up gunned version of the Andromeda class. While it can do all of the missions the Andromeda Class can do. It is a more aggressive leaning ship. Very suitable for Gunboat Diplomacy. A Frontline powerhouse this ship can both dish out and take heavy damage. It's Phaser lance weapon is rated in being able to shoot through both the shields and hull of most Alpha and Beta Quadrant forces Capital Ships. Due to the added features of the Yamato Class you can only make 50 of them
The Yorktown Class Starcruiser: This is the natural evolution of what we started in the 22nd Century when Starfleet first began to explore the galaxy. The Yorktown is designed for very long deep space missions. It can remain out far away from Federation space for over two decades. A massive ship that can conduct Scientific, Diplomatic and front line combat missions. It carries a smaller starship known as the Aquarious class that can assist the Yorktown in it's missions. Unlike the other ships listed it has an advanced propulsion drive in addition to it's warp drive called a Quantum Slipstream drive. This drive system allows the ship to exceed normal warp speed making it the only vessel listed that can get to the Delta Quadrant in a few months time. Due to it's advanced nature and bleeding edge technology we can only make 25 of these vessels.
The Vengeance Class Dreadnought. Ok Ok hear me out. We have faced many adversaries over the years. The Klingons, The Romulans the Tholians etc. And we have either been slightly on the winning end or getting our asses handed to us. This ship is what it is. It is a pure warship it does only one thing. Defeat the enemy. This Behemoth of a ship is nearly a mile long and is designed to flat out outgun all of the major powers in this sector of space. It is a Fleet Killer. It can go toe to toe with any of our rivals and come out the victor. Featuring advanced combat and propulsion systems {Classified} It will provide the Federation with a class of ship that will keep our citizens safe and deter all would be adversaries from attacking us. Due to it's size and classified technology we can only make 10 of these vessels. But it will be money well spent.
While you are tempted to pick more than one of these classes of ships. Due to resource limits and shipyard production space. We can only commit to one and only one of these classes of ship for the time being. So make your choice wisely and give Starfleet a great vessel.
Special Note: The classes of ship listed have technology from the early 25th Century. The ROB has gifted you this tech and has handwaved away the Temporal Agents of the Future, Section 31 and has threatened to Thanos Finger snap the Q Continnium if they even look at you wrong. You have a free hand to choose the class of starship that will be the face of the Federation through the 2360s into the 2380s. After 2370 you can start producing the other classes listed but you are restricted to one class for the first 20 years.
I will choose the Yorktown Class Star Cruiser. It is a great vessel and will allow the Starfleet to do very deep exploration missions.
