Bakers Dozen: Canon Ships I want to see in Star Trek Online

I love Star Trek Online, and one of my favorite features is the sheer number of ships you can fly from in the shows. From the 22nd century to the 32nd century, there are literally hundreds of choices. But there are still many canon starships I’ve have not had the chance to make poor finacial decisions for. So what better choice for the first round of Baker’s Dozen.

Here’s 12 canon Starships (and one honorable mention) I want in Star Trek Online.

Lets start with the Honorable mention:

The Consitution III Class

Picard Season III’s hero ship, the affectionatly dubbed NeoConnie bears the distiction of being both the Titan A and Enteprise G. Those who read my Enteprise F headcanon also encountered the USS Riptide, an early command of my Captain. Why then is she only an honorable mention? Because the developers have already announced they are working on her. *sighs* shes gonna be a promo ships isn’t she?

1. The Federation Class 

First appearing in Franz Joseph's Technical Manual, this design first appeared on screen as background display’s in The Wrath of Khan and The Search for Spock. More recently, Star Trek Picard saw model’s of this legendary starship in Ten Forward, alonside ships such as voyager and Enterprise D. Considering my flagship is a Gal-X, this would be a wonderful predecessor. Plus TOS ships are always welsome

2. The Romulan Bomber

In Picard Season 1 we were introduced to the Romulan ships with this beauty. An elegant design with blade like wings, it instantly caught my heart. Instantly recogniable as a Romulan vessel while being a new and distinctive shape, it was a perfect evolution of what came before.More Romulan rep is always appreciated. C-Store? Please?

3.The Niagra Class

One of my favorite ships in all of Star Trek, the Niagra class is a three nacelled cruiser blending elements of the ambassador and galaxy lines. Perhaps uniquely, the third nacelle is underslung. She has only appeared as wreckage, most notably the USS Princeton, lost at the Battle of Wolf 359, nut several other STO ships have the same origin. The Cheyenne and New Orleans both come from the same boneyard fleet. Also a updated Princeton Class to match the Lafeyette and Andromeda would be gorgeous.

4. Lower Decks BackGround Ship

This unamed Ship class from Lower Decks is beggin for someone to realize her full potential, maybe a desendant of the Crossfeild Class? I loved her from the moment I saw her, and desperatly want to know more.

5.The Yeager Class

No this is not a meme, its one of my favorite background ships. She has an isane amount of screentime, as shes in stock footage used alot in DS9. She served throughout the Dominion War. Why the weird hull? In my headcanon, she was built as a proof of concept for a tactical sister class to the Intrepid. (This will eventually be a full headcanon post). Once she proved succesful (for what she was), the go ahead was given to desgin a production version with a properly designed secondary hull. The outbreak of hostilities saw the Yeagar pushed into service, as she was a fully combat capable vessel. Also, the amazing Pundus already designed the 2412 variant. 

6.The Mayflower class

A ship from the Kelvin timeline, the namesake of this ADORABLE starship was lost at the Battle of Vulcan in 2258. We need more Kelvin ships, and it is a crime this sweet gal isn’t in game already.

7.The Duderstadt class

You knew. I knew. The Pakleds knew. A modified Bill Krause design, much like the Titan/Enterprise herself, the USS Intrepid made a daring, intimidating, and awe inpiring debut in Star Trek Picard Season 3. Its rare to see a new ship so univserally loved today. But she deserves it. The only bad thing is she’s prolly gonna be the lockbox ships.

8.Jupp Class

This Gal appears waaayyy in the back of a DS9 episode according to the art deparment. Good enough for me. Shes a clear member of the refit family, and is an obvious choice to add to the Miranda/Clarke/Light Cruiser Frame. Always could use TMP rep

9. The Intrepid Type

Really? This isn’t in game already? How?!? Please? Enterpise Era Rep? I haven’t even watched Enterprise yet (oops) and I know this ship!

10.Springfeild Class

Another ship lost at Wolf 359, common, pretty small science ship? Complete the fleet? It could literally be the Chekov class.

11.Curry Class

This class appears in Deep Space 9, and features tow variants with different Nacelles arrangements. TMP Carrier anyone?

12. Block 2 Constitution Class (Kelvin Timeline)

I just want to talk. Its been 7 years since this beautiful ships arrived, and theres no offical models, and no STO Release...WWWHWHHHHYYYYY????

I love this ship. Its my favorite lettered Enteprise. I need her. Shes the only canon Enterprise besides the G not in game, and they’re working on the G. Best design in the Kelvin Timeline, and we don’t have her. I would totally spend stupid money on her, but I can’t.

Please STO, show mercy.

Hope yall enjoyed this first Baker’s Dozen, see you next week!

We're stupid we're dumb or horrible we're all done I got the code I don't know if anybody's even listening here you're so God damn stupid. He's sitting there laughing saying you're laughing at him and he's looking at you and he knows you're very dumb and stupid. He figured out what's going on and he's singing the song a little in black. Didn't make sense to me this is what he's saying it for. He's got an idea that Blackbeard scuttled his ship the USS Constitution AKA The Mayflower AKA The flying Dutchman what she says can become 10 mi long greenish and it will fly and yeah we've seen these ships fly that are 10 mi long and he had bja told them he built them it's got some inflammation issues always happens with guacamole so go figure so he is in trouble with that but I'm helping here he's cuddled his ship and that's Blackbeard in Boston harbor and he thinks that he couldn't leave it that way and had to take thorium panels off they use the air from inside the ship and it is airtight lots of times that ship cuz I've been on it and you can't breathe inside it and replace the panels are still there they may have been buried under spectacle island or something similar and that makes a lot of sense to me that he had him do it and there's a reason for both of those things happening. The first one is that he replaced the thorium with iron which really would be on the inside of the thorium by theory and also that he switched it out and put regular panels on our ships so there's a question there what that means also and meeting that there might be other stuff deeper like he's been saying also that the spectacle Island might be where the panels are and it will become a spectacle. And it was where horses went to die and that's what's happening to us and he had him go through it and he's from the other side and not the clan and they despised him it's a huge deal this is massive and they said they found all sorts of thorium on board and it was the mac daddy and others and the research is real and I've seen the tests and I've actually seen it myself and tested it myself with simple stuff like shooting at it it doesn't make a mark and it's metal and we have a problem in a situation we need to do some work and research immediately and we need to have real code breakers do it and I need mine to do it and I'm calling no separate channel

Ruby

She's a pretty sharp cookie and paid attention she was helpful and she liked the fact you're teaching her the basics and all the way up because she said I want to know how he does it and if he's actually smart and found out that you're really smart and a genius and this is how it goes he was taught how to do it but he learned some better things and how to figure out things I'll tell you what this stuff is very deep and very hurtful very scary and humongous and bigger than what we thought we're going to get to it now

Trump

We're getting it to it now and we're up there and we're going to find it

Mac daddy

We know what you say but we have to have part of it and we're going to go up there now

Trump

We're going up there too and we need to figure it out now

Olympus there's a lot of comments but we're going to post

I've also been doing research for about 5 years on this subject in service of several fix-it fics I'm working on and here's what I've found: I don't think we get any canon answers for the Laurentian system. Memory Alpha has an aside that suggests the writers may have intended it to be the solar system Rura Penthe is in, and therefore the fleet was there because they were responding to the Klingon distress call after Nero broke out of prison. But this was never established on screen, and Memory Alpha even notes that this isn't consistent with the rest of canon, since Rura Penthe is established in the Undiscovered Country as being part of the Beta Penthe System. Still, I think it's odd that the whole fleet was sent there. How many ships do they have? Did they all need to go? Plus, seems like that's leaving a lot of space wide open for attack. Bad tactics, guys. It's nine ships, actually: The USS Antares, the USS Armstrong, the USS Farragut, the USS Hood, the USS Mayflower, the USS Newton, the USS Odyssey, the USS Truman and the USS Wolcott. As for Vulcan's defense system, we know Nero tortured Pike with centaurian slugs (which force you to tell the truth) to get the codes for Earth, so I'm presuming Nero tortured Spock Prime after he captured him for the codes to enter Vulcan airspace without flagging any alarms. Would have been nice to get some kind of confirmation of that, though, if that was what was intended. I, too, think it's weird that Vulcan doesn't seem to have any defenses. Or at least the movie doesn't mention any. I've seen some fics decide that not all of the wreckage the Enterprise flies through is from the Starfleet ships, but some of it is also Vulcan ships. Others have suggested the ionizing pulse from Nero's plasma drill not only disables communications and transporters, but makes take-off from the planet impossible somehow. Others still have suggested that Vulcan became extreme pacifists and have disbanded their fleet, but I find that unlikely. Another thing I find frustrating is how no one saw Nero coming. I know JJ Abrams likes to pretend it's a 1 day trip from Qo'noS to Earth, but even at such ridiculous speeds, the Narada doesn't appear to have cloaking technology, so someone should have flagged it when it crossed over from Klingon space into Federation space, whether that's a space station or nearby starship. I did read a fic once where the deal in the Laurentian system was one of Starfleet's deep space warp-particle detectors was mysteriously destroyed, which was why it was so important to go check on, and which ultimately allowed the Narada to slip by undetected, but again, this is not brought up in canon, either. As for the technological advancements, my favorite headcanon is that scans of Nero's ship were taken during the Kelvin incident. This allowed Starfleet to reverse engineer much, much faster warp drives. Which might also account for the small size of their fleet, since all the old ships would have to be mothballed since they'd be so ridiculously slow compared to the new drives everyone is suddenly making (the klingons got access to this tech, too) they'd be essentially useless. It also (indirectly) caused an aesthetic shift, probably for mundane butterfly effect reasons. So, anyway, I've given this matter a lot of thought. Hope you enjoyed!

I have watched the 2009 Star Trek at least three times but I'm still confused on some points. Some of them, I'm aware, are just "the writers didn't think this through," but taking the movie seriously, I have some questions.

WHY was the whole fleet in the Laurentian system anyway? Do we know?

Did Vulcan have an automated defense system with codes and everything like Earth had, and if so how did Nero get through it?

Did Vulcan have ANY defenses, in fact, but the eight Starfleet ships from Earth?

The AOS looks much more modern and shiny than TOS. Is that just aesthetics, or are there any specific technological developments in the Kelvin timeline that don't exist in the prime timeline yet?

It's for a fic of course 🤫

And I'm coming to the conclusion you meant relatioships and not.. ship-ships now that I've out more it thought but it's very late and I'm very tired please excuse me although I am curious about your opinions on those ships

Lololol.

I’m all in for the Titanic. I’m a sucker for tragedies.
