History

In the recent shift from Starfleet's attention away Exploration and Colonization to Defense, there was a call for a small but powerful craft to carry small strike teams or to operate of reconnaissance vehicles.

The Anaconda Class was Starfleet solution. Based on the Danube class Runabout design, its slightly smaller, sleeker and Faster and carries a lot more punch for its size.

At present there are only two prototype vessels assigned for use in SPECWAR service. The Anaconda Class Runabouts main purpose is as a small Marine Transport. It is the first Vessel to apply entirely Biogel technology and a revolutionary new Warp Core design for small vessels. At this stage of its of the Anaconda Development Project the Warp drive is reliable, however problems are predicted in the future. The Anaconda also features an advanced Impulse Drive that improves maneuver ability at full impulse speeds.
