Excelsior-class

The Excelsior class is a Federation Heavy Cruiser.

Description
Once the pride of Starfleet technology and superiority, the Excelsior Class has served in the fleet for nearly a century now, and has seen her role surpassed by the newer Ambassador and Galaxy Class ships. However, thanks to modern advancements in weapons and shield technology, the class has been able to keep pace with the newer ships around it. Now classified as a heavy cruiser, the Excelsior Class is ready to lead the charge against the Federation's opponents.
