History-

The Younger-Class was initially designed more for exploration, but as easily leaned more towards fleet actions in the Existence War in 2500-2506, doing well at Point-Defense, Picket and one-on-one battles against mid-sized True Ones Warships.

The Younger-Class is named for the 23rd Century Poet Ulysses Younger, who wrote of young pioneers in his Opus, Star Trails, in 2233, and the Class was built at Merak, Andor and Antares Fleet Yards at a combined rate of 14 per year.
