As the Monarch-class prototype neared completion, it was moved to the San Francisco Fleet Yards for finishing touches and final review. Some of the completed elements on the three hull frames had to be redone, which slowed construction by a few additional months. The Monarch incorporated many elements and systems from the Block I/T (formerly Mark II) Galaxy-class variant, while also adapting into its hull the ablative generator technology brought back by the USS Voyager.
The design that greatly expanded upon the tactical capabilities of the Galaxy-class was applied to the USS Monarch, becoming lead ship of the Block II/T Monarch-class.
He had created three new designs that reworked the Galaxy-class to better incorporate the many new technologies developed since the class was first introduced, including those brought by the USS Voyager from its journey through the Delta Quadrant.Īfter spending a month reviewing the designs, Starfleet Command approved them and ordered the shift of the three Galaxy-class vessels under construction to the new designs, designated as Block II. Debluch Morrone, the lead designer at the San Francisco Fleet Yards, approached the admiralty with a proposal. Construction began on the three spaceframes at Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards in late 2377. Shortly after the Dominion War, Starfleet Command ordered the construction of three Galaxy-class vessels to replace those lost in recent years.
