History:
The Ambassador Class was built to replace the Exclesior
as the flagship of Starfleet. In many ways, the
Ambassador was just what Starfleet needed. With growing
tensions from the Klingons, the ASDB (Advanced Starship
Design Bureau) designed the Ambassador which was
unofficially a "battleship." The Ambassador was
the first ship to sport armor plates as standard
equipment. The Ambassador was loaded with heavy weapons
and extra strong shields, and it sported one of the
fastes warp drives of the time. When the first ship ofthe
class ran off the assembly line, it gave the Klingons a
scareand help put a quick end to the war. (don't be
confused with recent war, this war took place in
2330s-2340s.) The Ambassador performed magnificently in
every roll Starfleet put it in-over the years, the
Ambassador has won the hearts of many captains and
admirals, and it is a vivid reminder of what great ships
Starflet can put out. A true credit to the fleet.
Ambassadors are the 3rd oldest ships to still be in
construction.
