Capella II

The Capella II Class, based on the Akira, Lochgarden and Nova Classes, became a somewhat leaner "War Destroyer" (DW), much like numerous almost always Non-Federation Designs during the General War of the 2280s, being lighter, sometimes operating as Poor Man's Frigates and Scouts, with Special Sensors and Troops, and functioning as a large portion of postwar Patrol Forces, replacing destroyed Miranda and Saber Class Ships.

The Capella II Class was named for a long lineage of 23 Ocean and Star faring ships, and was built at Sol VI, Tellar and Morena at a combined rate of 18 per year, 316 in total being built.
