Changes: Antares class (Corvallen)

Revision as of 15:31, 8 October 2014

Corvallen freighter — *Antares*-class freighter

The Antares-class freighter was an old-style warp-capable freighter utilized by the Corvallens during the 24th century.

These vessels, which could be maintained with a crew of 18, had limited range and speed, capable of traveling no more than fifteen light years in a single day.

In 2369, the Romulan Warbird Khazara was scheduled to rendezvous with a Corvallen freighter in the Kaleb sector to transfer cargo that would be transported to the Federation planet Draken IV. The Khazara later destroyed the freighter, forcing it to find an alternate means of transferring its cargo to Federation space. (TNG: "Face of the Enemy")

-''Travelling fifteen light years in a single day seems to contradicte the above statment regarding limited range and speed as even at Warp Factor Nine it would take one day to travel five light years, indicating the freighter's top speed to be around the Warp 9.9 range.  It was most likely a goof and should be a lesser distance.''
