Description

Did a little bit of reworking on the Coalition Class, making it more like its future namesake.

One of the last surviving ships made by the Federation, the Coalition-class U.S.S. Constitution was scheduled to be launched in the early 2210's after a slight structural redesign in the 2200's. It was on a shakedown cruise before being recalled to Earth when Starfleet made the decision to end the funding of the Coalition class ship to make way for more advanced designs like the Marklin, the Einstein, and other ship designs.

Then, on Stardate 2241.03, Archanis IV was attacked by the Klingons and the people declared war against them. During the 4-year war, the newly designed Ares-class warships giving the Klingon D6's a run for their credits...until rumors of a highly advanced D7 was being constructed. To counter this, Starfleet explored a number of starship designs, when one man stepped forward and offered a radical solution. Eric L. Gardner Jr, former junior officer of the NX-01 Enterprise and former captain of the NX-09 Lexington suggested that they design a starship based on the Coalition class with an advanced duatronic computer created by a young Richard Daystrom. The result: a Federation powerhouse that would put the D7 to shame; the crown jewel of Starfleet Command...the Constitution class

(If anyone can make a better story than this...please do so)
