History and specifications[]
The Polaris class is the first of a new range of class for deep range combat vessels. The Polaris class passes the Excalibur-class as largest vessel within Starfleet. The Titanic-class is 1,459 meters long, bigger than the Polaris class.
The Polaris class is the test bed for many new technologies and integration of Stargate Command developed technologies into the core of Starfleet vessels in the coming years. The Polaris class was built in response to the growing number of large number of super capitals produce by hostile states against the Federation as a appropriate counter measure.
