Description
Put into production in 2370, the Akira-class was designed to provide offensive strength and support to Starfleet's armada. The Akira has since become an invaluable asset to Starfleet, first by helping to repel the Borg offensive of 2373, and later in the Dominion War. Its extensive shielding, maneuverability, and powerful phaser banks make it useful in both offensive and defensive situations.
