The design had to be flexible enough to handle full scale battle situations, search and rescue commands, patrol duty, large scale planetary emergencies, science missions, and even diplomatic tasks. Keeping all of this in mind, the ARIZONA-class was conceived. As expected, this class vessel is heavily armed with the latest in standard phasers, torpedo launchers, and meson phasers. These are not the only weapons within this design, however. The original style phaser cannon has been replaced with a pulse fire cannon, noted for firing two short bursts at its target, weaking shields so that the third and more pronounced blast may break through with lesser defenses to challenge it. Positron Inducers have been installed for use against vessels whose shields have been brought down. Once fired, the blast from the inducers disables electronic equipment in that area (ie Weapons arrays, engines, sensor pallet...) In addition to weapons, the ship also features a larger flight deck capable of handling the traffic of two fighter squadrons in addition to the ships normal compliment of shuttles and runabouts. Although not the compliment of a carrier, the addition of the fighters is intended to offer itself as additional support in daily operations. A dorsal docking portal allows for the semi-permenant attachment of a corvette sized excort vessel to be assigned to this ARIZONA-class on a more permenant basis, assisting in operations through such duties as command coordination, transport, escort, and patrol duties. Possible corvettes that can currently be mated with the ARIZONA are the ADVENGER, MIRAGE, and THUNDER-class corvettes. Massive mission bays within the design offer itself for modular installation of mission specific hardware, storage of equipment, temporary quarters (ie for operations such as planet evacuation, troop movements). This feature enhances the multimission aspects of the design. Just after the introduction of the class, the engineers returned to the drawing boards to both update certain systems while removing the bugs from others. In addition, the saucer was made more round and slightly smaller as more automation was introduced within the design, reducing both ship length as well as cutting the crew size by over 200 hands. The first of the ARIZONA II-class ships, both new builds and refits, were introduced at the end of 2414.
