    NOTE: A 2395 Galaxy-class was fitted with 3 warp nacelles and cloaking device. The warp drive was possibly transwarp, since it could reach at least warp factor 13.0 (this could also be just a recalibration of the warp factor scale).

    Intrepid-class

    Dimensions: 344x133x66 meters
    Decks: 15
    Warp drive: dilithium-controlled M/ARA, elongated Z-axis warp field, 2 variable-geometry nacelles

    Defiant-class

    Dimensions: 170x134x30 meters
    Decks: 4
    Warp drive: micronized M/ARA (prototype), incorporating injection of delta-isotopes (see note below), 2 nacelles, 2x4 warp coils

    Total computer memory: 4,620,890,000 kiloquads per core (micronization technology)

    NOTE: The injection of delta-isotopes is to prevent time dilation effects at speeds higher than warp 9.5 (board time slows down). The delta-isotopes are mixed with the warp plasma in the M/ARA, creating an effect that in fact pushes the ship forward in time.

    NOTE: Reflex-quintronics incorporates duotronic drivers, isolinear optical chips, bio-neural gel packs and advances in Cytherian computer technology.
    This artificial intelligence-technology responds to external stimulae on an instinctive level. One of the consequences of RQs is autorepair of damaged systems. However the computer is equipped with artificial intelligence, the computer cannot make his own decisions; he's still restricted to his programs.

    Borg Cube

    Dimensions: 3030x3030x3030 meters

    Warp drive: M/ARA (inboard nacelles) and transwarp conduit drive

    Other tactical systems: auto-repair
    Shuttles: 1 spheroid escape craft
    Computer technology: biocybernetic neural net

    NOTE: This dimensions are the right one. I see on the Internet many estimations of the size of a Borg Cube, varying from 2000x2000x2000 to 8000x8000x8000 meters. But 'Dark Frontier' (VOY) establishes that the internal volume of a Borg Cube is 28 cubic kilometers, which turns out to be 3030x3030x3030 meters.

    Borg Sphere (escape pod)

    Dimensions: ~100x100x100 meters
    Decks: ~25
    Warp drive: none, impulse drive only
    Maximum impulse: ~0.02c (6000 km/sec) Weapons: unknown type of low-power torpedos

    Decks: ~500
    Warp drive: transwarp conduit drive
    Maximum rated speed speed: ~44,000,000c (see note) Weapons: not seen in episode
    Computer technology: biocybernetic neural net

    NOTE: The speed of 44,000,000c is calculated. In the episode ('Drone' (VOY)), the Borg sphere covered a distance of ~15,000 lightyears in 3 hours, which turns out to be ~44,000,000c.

    Borg Transwarp prototype (asymmetrical)

    Dimensions: 1200x4500x1400 meters
    Decks: ~370
    Maximum cruising speed: 9.99 with standard warp drive
    Maximum rated speed: warp 29.968 (~228,000,000c, see note)
    Weapons: laser cutting beams, high-power plasma projector, warp energy weapons (drains power from shielding and warp fields), unknown type of torpedos
    Shields: adaptive electromagnetic shields, auto-regeneration matrix
    Other tactical systems: auto-repair

    NOTE 1: Although warp 10 is infinite speed on the warp scale, the Borg transwarp prototype is capable of exceeding that limit to a maximum of almost warp 30.
    Warp 10 is infinite speed for Federation ships, because they have a maximum of 9 nested warp field layers incorporated in their warp field. This makes warp 10 infinite speed. The Borg transwarp prototype appearently has a maximum of 29 warp field layers, which makes warp 30 infinite speed for this ship.

    NOTE 2: The speed of 228,000,000c is calculated. The Borg transwarp prototype covered a distance of 65 lightyears in a time of 9 seconds (measured at home with a stopwatch at 'Descent' (TNG)), which turns out to be ~228,000,000c.

    You can help updating this page!

    If you've spotted a new ship in Star Trek and you've collected some info, e-mail your info in this format (this format is easy to handle for me and easy to paste into this webpage):

    [race/government][class name]
    Classification: [i.e. cruiser, scout, explorer, etc]
    Dimensions: [length, width, height]
    Decks: [number of decks]
    Warp drive: [type, number of nacelles, other details]
    Standard cruising speed: [normal speed, TNG warp scale (or TOS, if mentioned)]
    Maximum cruising speed: [maximum normal speed]
    Maximum rated: [maximum speed, duration]
    Emergency speed: [absolute maximum speed, duration]
    Impulse drive: [type, number of engines] Standard impulse: [normal impulse speed, times lightspeed (c)]
    Maximum impulse: [maximum impulse speed]
    Weapons: [weapon types, number]
    Shields: [type]
    [other tactical systems, i.e. cloaking device]
    Shuttlecraft: [number]
    Computer technology: [type, number of cores, speed]
    Sources: [i.e. book, magazine, episode]
    [contributor names & email address]

    It's absolutely not necessary to have ALL information. As you can see in the ship overview above, most ships have only limited info. Some point I do want to know: speeds, weapons, dimensions and decks. If you don't know them, then you should make an estimation.
