Daedalus class



The Daedalus class, also known as the BC-304 or 304 or Daedalus class warship, is a class of deep space carrier built by the Federation in 2379. As of 2387, twelve Daedalus-class warships have been built. These 304s are the Daedalus, Odyssey, Soujourner, Korolev, Apollo, Sun Tzu, Orion, Fraiser, Aurora, Tria, Phoenix and the George Hammond. Eleven are known to be in active service. One 304, the Korolev, was given to the Russians, while the another 304, the Sun Tzu, is operated by the Chinese. One 304 the Sojourner was destroyed in 2387 during the Battle of Capella IV by the Narada.

Overview
Although referred to as "sister ships" to the (BC-303) Prometheus, the 304s differ significantly in their design and technology. While the Prometheus was originally built with less powerful phasers, the 304s incorporated type 10 phasers and type 11 phasers.

History
Originally, the Prometheus proved itself to be a capable warship,with several more ships of the BC-303-class planned for construction. It immediately became one of Stargate Command's most important project. Currently, seventy percent of the SGC's operating resources has been transferred to the construction of Daedalus-class vessels.The first vessel of the class was the Daedalus, which was introduced in 2379. Upon its completion, the ship was immediately assigned to Starbase 306 to assist the starbase in fighting the Xindi-Suliban Alliance.
