Excelsior II class

For other uses, see Excelsior.

The Excelsior II class was a 25th century Federation starship type, a tier 6-rated intel heavy cruiser class derived from the 23rd century Excelsior-class heavy cruiser, in Starfleet and Khitomer Alliance service in the 2400s^[1] and 2410s decades. The USS Excelsior (NCC-42037) was the lead ship of this class. (STO website: Ascension: The Excelsior II!)

History and specifics[]

The Excelsior II class followed the Starfleet default of saucer section/engineering hull/twin warp nacelles configuration. The slim, elongated hull and nacelles were reminiscent of the 2280s-era Excelsior class but the Excelsior II was larger. (STO website: Ascension: The Excelsior II!)

Two ships of the class, the USS Excelsior and the USS Eureka, were part of Admiral Jean-Luc Picard's armada that confronted the Borg ship at a spatial anomaly in the year 2401. (PIC episode: "The Star Gazer")

The class assisted in Borg Queen Agnes Jurati in closing the dangerous anomaly. (PIC episode: "Farewell")

In the year 2411, the Excelsior II class was categorized as a tier 6 intel heavy cruiser. Its design was shared with Starfleet's allies in the Khitomer Alliance. (STO website: Ascension: The Excelsior II!)

The class and its lead ship were contemporaries of other ships named Excelsior, including the USS Excelsior (NCC-2000). (STO website: House Reborn: The Legendary Excelsior Miracle Worker Heavy Cruiser)

Excelsior II Breen — Equipped with Breen technology.

Another contemporary was the Excelsior-class refit vessel USS Excelsior (NCC-2000-D). (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")

A ship of this class was outfitted with Breen weapons recovered from q's Winter Wonderland and deployed a shockwave in space. These included a Breen cryonic module, an omni-directional cold beam array and a cold torpedo launcher. (STO website: Ascension: Q's Winter Wonderland!)
