A Multi-Role Vessel, the STARCHILD Class starship was designed as a replacement for the ageing EXCELSIOR class ships. Design concepts began early 2398, following the same basic hull design concepts with upgraded systems and a different saucer section, the STARCHILD began service in 2400. Since then the retiring of the EXCELSIOR and the integration of the STARCHILD has taken full effect.

ADDITIONAL NOTES REGARDING STARCHILD CLASS
A Multi-Role Vessel, the STARCHILD Class starship was
designed as a replacement for the ageing EXCELSIOR class ships.
Design concepts began early 2398, following the same basic hull
design concepts with upgraded systems and a different saucer
section, the STARCHILD began service in 2400. Since then the
retiring of the EXCELSIOR and the integration of the STARCHILD
has taken full effect.
A versatile ship, the STARCHILD can serve anything from
diplomatic envoy to front line battle duty. Low construction
costs, and design flexibility have made the STARCHILD Class the
backbone of the Federation's Starfleet.
The STARCHILD was designed to last, and ten years on vessels are
still being made as the primary stock of Starfleet's Fleets.
