NCC-52749 USS Artania
- Built: Sirius Fleet Yards; Keel layed down 18 May 2352, completed 23 December 2352.
- First Launch: 26 December 2352
The last ship of the Saladin-flight Akira-class starships to be laid down due to the end of the war on 10 June 2352, the USS Artania was named after a famous Rigellian general. While some changes to the design were carried out due to the end of the war, it was largely built to template and launched in late December. It's refit was carried out in the Utopia Planetia Yards, as many of the ship's crew transferred from the destroyed USS Yinghwa, an Marvel-flight Excelsior-class starship, with the sole exception being it's captain, Captain Sekahic kr'Trialian, a hero of the Cardassian Liberation War, who was transferred from the nearly totally destroyed USS Indefatigable, a Belka-flight Miranda-class starship. And then a few others were transferred later..

Footnotes
- ↑ This was one of the first ships to receive an engine completely designed after the re-calibration.
- ↑ While many think tanks were trying to increase the maximum impulse speed from .45c without incurring relativistic dilation, no one had successfully done so, and the speed reached in 2195 was still the standard across most of the known galaxy
- ↑ This was a referent to Earth's gravity, which was the median value when measured. At this time, the impulse engines were unable to accelerate a ship to max speed in under 71 minutes. Often, though, the idea is that it got you to the usability of the warp drive rather than having to rely on impulse engines to accelerate to max speed. However, the limiting factor in this case was the inertial dampeners not being able to handle acceleration over that velocity. That said, in an emergency, Saladin-class starships could reach 3300 gravities, but it would place severe strain on the SIF and inertial dampeners. Such speeds were referred to as 'maximum military acceleration', and required specific authorization logged after the war.
- ↑ The Mark XXI was introduced in 2349, and was noted for the fact it could be uprated for more destructive power or other aids as the situation would dictate. It would become the mainstay of the fleet until the introduction of the Mk II Quantum Torpedoes in 2361 to the heavier units of the fleet, and even then, would serve until the Mark XXII was rolled out in 2390. While before the war ships often didn't have specific class launchers, the need to standardize launchers fleet wide while still allowing variations for individual ships in the fleet required in the so called 'class and mark' launchers. This made it possible for a ship of the Andorian Imperial Guard to use Axanarian launchers, for example. The 2352 refit removed the temperamental Class V-C launchers (prone to jamming and needing extra maintenance), and left space for better launchers to be added in the future.

- ↑ The life support upgrade as allowed the Artania to carry Ground Operations officers as needed, although they only traveled on the ship when needed or requested.
