The latter four face out to port and starboard, respectively - so far as I know these are the only torpedo tubes we've ever seen which don't fire parallel to the direction of motion. Saucer: 7 total, 3 forward below the front shuttle bay doors, 4 in dorsal surface, 2 port, 2 starboard. Pod: 7 total, 4 in upper section of pod, 3 in lower section, all face forward The location of the tubes was given in the article, and is as follows : Since it first appeared, everything we learn about this ship just makes it better and better! The recent Star Trek Magazine article on the ship stated that she had no less than fifteen torpedo tubes, and confirmed the speculation that she was indeed intended to carry and handle large numbers of shuttles with hangar doors both forward and aft on the saucer. I must confess, I was one of those who argued against the Akira being some sort of super-warship, but it seems that I was totally in the wrong on that one. Another good shot is to be had when the Borg cube explodes an Akira swoops past the screen just before the scene cuts. A steamrunner and Akira both open fire, the Akira firing several photons from underneath the leading edge of the saucer section. The best image of an Akira is seen when the Starfleet ships begin firing on the weak point on the Borg cube. We see several Akiras during the initial battle with the Borg at least two of these are destroyed.

The Akira class was one of the four new ship classes seen for the first time in the movie Star Trek : First Contact.

Star Trek Deep Space Nine Technical Manual Ī Twitter thread from Dave Blass, Star Trek: Picard Production Designer. The anomaly would later turn out to have been caused by the Borg. In 2401 the Akira class USS Avalon was on patrol when it encountered the formation of a spatial anomaly, which it reported to Starfleet Command. The Akiras have now become a common sight on the front lines, participating in most of the major battles. When the Dominion war began, production of the Akira was boosted to eighteen per year as the Federation converted its economy to a war footing. The Akiras had been due to cease production in 2373, but with the disastrous contact with the Dominion Starfleet decided to continue production at an increased rate. A notable participant was the USS Thunderchild, NCC 63549, which participated in the final assault which destroyed the Borg cube. Many of the ships were destroyed during this battle. Akira class vessels featured prominently in the 2373 Borg attack on Earth the Typhon Fleet, together with several reinforcement squadrons, fought a running battle with the Borg vessel from the Typhon sector to Earth. More recently the escalation of tensions at the Federations core over the last few years has led to almost all of the Akiras being recalled to operate nearer to Earth thirty five where assigned to the Typhon Sector Fleet in 2370, the remainder being assigned to the areas adjacent to the Cardassian, Klingon and Romulan borders. Most were assigned to units on the outer Federation territories, performing patrol and presence missions as well as the normal mapping and exploration duties which any Starfleet vessel is expected to handle. The USS Akira entered service in 2363, and a rapid production run put nearly a hundred others into the fleet over the next twelve years. During the Dominion war the ships often serve as fighter carriers in this role they can carry up to one hundred attack fighters, although a load of thirty six fighters and a dozen utility craft is more usual. During peacetime this allows the Akira to evacuate large numbers of small survey craft, or ferry evacuees on board at a high rate.
These are linked together through the centre of the ship, allowing large numbers of launch and landing operations to be handled simultaneously. There are two large shuttle bays in the saucer section, one at the forward edge of the saucer section and one at the rear. Īnother unusual feature of the Akira class is the hangar bay arrangements. Seven of these are mounted in the large roll bar pod, all facing forwards the remaining eight are located in the saucer section, two of which face directly out to port and starboard - an unusual feature in a Starfleet vessel. The ships carry an extremely heavy torpedo armament of no less than 15 photon torpedo tubes. The USS Akira is one of the very few Starfleet vessels which is heavily biased toward the combat role.
