GENERAL NOTES

The Centaur type class is an early 24th century design consisting of an Excelsior class saucer section with warp nacelles mounted on the primary hull with a weapons pod. The Centaur’s primary role was as a fast attack ship with excellent maneuverability. As with the Excelsior class, Centaur class prooved highly adaptable to new technologies, and could see action again someday should the need arise.
