  • The Excelsior-class was a type of Federation starship used by Starfleet from the late 23rd century through the late 24th century. It was the backbone of Starfleet for nearly a century, making it one of the longest serving starship designs, and one of the most recognizable ships in the fleet.

  • The Excelsior-class was a type of starship the entered service with the Federation Starfleet in the 2280s. The class would continue to serve with Starfleet well into the 2370s, nearly a century after the prototype was launched. The prototype vessel, the USS Excelsior (NX-2000) was designed to test Starfleet's new transwarp drive. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) The drive would prove to be a failure and the class was equipped with standard warp drive. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era)

  • The Excelsior-class was a starship class used by Starfleet during the late 23rd and 24th centuries. The USS Excelsior (the class prototype) was originally built to test the transwarp drive.
  • The Excelsior-class was a type of battleship and explorer that was first built in the 2280s and went on to be used by Starfleet throughout the 24th and 25th centuries. (FASA RPG module: Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual; Decipher RPG module: Starfleet Operations Manual) The prototype of this class was the USS Excelsior (NX-2000) was initially fitted with an experimental transwarp drive and was proclaimed as "the Great Experiment". (TOS movie: Star Trek III: The Search for Spock) The last ship constructed of this class was the USS Dallas (NCC-2019). (TNG video game: Elite Force II) Although the Dallas may have been intended to be the final ship, it seems this decision was reversed, since, in 2409, Starfleet has ships of the Excelsior class and the Enterprise-B refit subclass in service 125 and 116 years after the first ships were commissioned, respectively.
  • The Excelsior-class starship was designed to replace the aging Constitution-class in during the late 23rd century. The design proved surprisingly durable and was in continuous service at least as late as 2409.
  • The Excelsior-class was a type of starship the entered service with the Federation Starfleet in the 2280s.

(Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) The drive would prove to be a failure and the class was equipped with standard warp drive. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era) The maximum evacuation capacity of Excelsior-class ships were 9,800 people. (Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual)
  • The Excelsior-class starship appeared too much in "TNG" 'cuz the FX people were too stupid or too poor to make a model for a new class of ship. As a result, everyone except Picard, that black dude with the mustache from that anime, and that Maxwell nutbag seemed to command an Excelsior. This over-use was taken to a serious and insulting extreme on Deep Space Nine, as virtually two-thirds of every Starfleet ship featured was an Excelsior (the actual numerical breakdown of Starfleet ships seen on-screen was 64% Excelsiors, 31% Miranda, 4% Galaxys and 1% other - I'm not counting the feckin' runabouts). About the only non TOS-era starship we saw on DS9 was that Centaur-type, which was kitbashed from a goddamn Excelsior! You can thank Berman and Braga for this, they would not allow DS9 to use all those cool ship designs like the Akira, the Prometheus, or the even the Sovereign - despite the fact these were all state-of-the-art battleships designed for no other reason than the front lines of war. Well, maybe not the Sovereign, but all those ships from the Battle of Sector 001 in the opening to First Contact were nothing but warships. And that badass Prometheus, good lord what a loss we never saw it again. All those ships are one-shots! FUCK! See also: Miranda class
