In 2254, the Riskadh class cruiser—or D-10, as it was designated by Starfleet—was commissioned into service, the design of which was strongly influenced by the D-7. The Klingon Empire hoped to counter Starfleet’s Constitution class cruisers with this new vessel. The Four Years War was in its second year, and the Klingons had learned some lessons as well. The Riskadh class used the same command pod as the D-7, thus eliminating the need for additional production facilities. As a result, it had the same capabilities as the D-7’s pod; namely, the ability to be jettisoned and have independent sub-light engines, life-support, and weapons. In February 2256, Starfleet captured a pod that had been jettisoned during the Battle of Kesse, sixteen months earlier; the crew was alive and as well as could be expected.[1]

The first spacecraft launched from Earth with a faster-than-light engine, the Phoenix was built by noted space pioneer Zefram Cochrane and engineer Lily Sloane from an old Titan V nuclear missile, modified with a small crew cabin and twin warp nacelles. The Phoenix made its first historic warp flight on April 5, 2063, and was piloted by Cochrane, symbolically rising from the ashes of World War III, ushering in a new era for humanity. The flight of the Phoenix was directly responsible for Earth’s first contact with extraterrestrials, leading to Earth’s recovery from the postatomic horror. The Phoenix was later placed on display at the Smithsonian Institution, and was featured in a mandatory course taught at Starfleet Academy on basic warp design.[1]

Enterprise NX-01 Chief Engineer “Trip” Tucker and Captain Archer used the pod Orbital 6 to view the exterior of the Enterprise prior to its launch in early April 2151. At one point, Tucker’s attention wavered and the pod drifted into the bottom of the saucer, where it scratched the paint.[1]

The Na Ra’den class, designated T-12 by Starfleet, began production in mid-2279. It was the largest assault ship in the Klingon fleet during the late 23rd century, and was capable of putting its entire contingent of 2400 troops, 56 light support vehicles, and 28 heavy tanks on the ground in less than fifteen minutes, which made it very difficult for any enemy to repel them. In most assault operations, these ships operated in groups of three, and the number of groups depended on the complexity of the operation.[1]
