[[Image:Intrepid.jpg|300px|left|USS Eagle]] The Eagle takes its name from a noble bird of prey, an emblem of the old United States of America . This bird represented the strength and majesty of a people who admired strength and courage.. From the early days of  Earth many peoples have looked to the Eagle with a spiritual admiration..  The Eagle is not the largest or indeed most powerful of the ships in the fleet, but is extremely resilient and flexible in it's role.

When the '''USS ''Eagle''''', NCC-74659, was launched in 2375 it was plagued by a recurring computer system problem which almost saw her withdrawn from service, but the arrival of the [[ma:Dominion War|Dominion War]] meant that the Federation could not afford to waste any of its resources.


The USS Eagle NCC-74659 has only had one Captain since her launch.. 2375. When she was launched the Eagle was plagued by a reacquiring computer system problem which almost saw her being withdrawn from service completely, but the arrival of the Dominion war meant that much of the ship building was geared to war vessels and anything else that could be used was drafted to aid the war effort.  The Eagle was pretty much stripped of any unnecessary parts and used to ferry supplies from [[Starbase 118]] to Earth or where ever else supplies were needed...  The Eagle performed well for the most part but reacquiring computer problems often saw her stuck in dry dock, slowly she was forgotten and almost mothballed..
The Eagle was stripped down to a bare minimum, outfitted with extra cargo bays and used to ferry supplies wherever they were needed. For the most part she performed well, in no small part due to the Intrepid's high speed, but her continuing computer problems often saw her idling in dry dock.  Slowly she was forgotten and come close to being mothballed.
 
The [[Intrepid Class]] starships marked a change in course for Starfleet away from building very large, elaborate starships and toward building smaller, more efficient vessels. One of a series of newer and more compact ships, the [[Intrepid Class]] was designed to be a fast multi-mission starship primarily intended for exploration, survey, and courier missions. A fast vessel with advanced sensing and research capability, the Intrepid class makes for an effective exploratory platform, while at the same time carrying sufficient armament to act as s small agile combat vessel.  Several important advances in Starfleet technology mark the development of the Intrepid class. One of the most important features of the starship is the variable geometry warp nacelles, which allow an adjustment of the warp field to maximise its efficiency, as well as to minimise any negative effects on the fabric of space. Utilising this cutting edge technology results in a vessel that can be flown at extremely high speeds with a significantly smaller power source than other ships of comparable size. Another design breakthrough in the [[Intrepid Class]] is the inclusion within a protected backup chamber of a series of components that would allow for the assembly of a spare warp core. Should the main core be lost for some unforeseen reason, a replacement could be constructed by the engineering crew without having to replicate all the components.


The [[Intrepid Class]] pioneered the systems that would allow a starship to make routine planet fall. Previously unheard of in starships, the ability to land and take off again with minimum system impact is being incorporated into a series of vessels, thanks in large part to the advance made and lessons learnt in the flight of the Intrepid class. The most advanced computer systems available are at the heart of the [[Intrepid Class]] ship. The computer uses bio neural gel-packs that incorporate synthetic neuron analogs in a nutrient gel medium. This arrangement mimics organic neurons, allowing the packs a processing protocol akin to what happens in a humanoid brain, speeding data functions and improving overall computer operations.

[[Taboo, Daydan|Captain Taboo]] loyalty to his Ship, Crew, Betazed and the Nature of the Universe is unquestionable..  Perhaps together, the Eagle and [[Taboo, Daydan|Captain Taboo]] can at last make a difference.

“Bring it on.”


Current Mission

Starting stardate 239510 a new, democratic government is rising on Cardassia as it continues recovering from the Dominion War. This fragile empire is being forced by the Federation and its allies to secure its border, pulling back from spaces it previously occupied to focus on reconstruction and hopefully wean itself from outside support. One area it looks to abandon is the Aavaro Wilds, an annexed zone home to pirates and a seemingly unending array of challenges to Cardassian patrols. As it withdraws its troops and closes outposts, the Federation looks to explore this space and fill a power vacuum. The ship Starfleet has assigned to the task is the USS Eagle, commanded by Oddas Aria.

History

When the USS Eagle, NCC-74659, was launched in 2375 it was plagued by a recurring computer system problem which almost saw her withdrawn from service, but the arrival of the Dominion War meant that the Federation could not afford to waste any of its resources.

The Eagle was stripped down to a bare minimum, outfitted with extra cargo bays and used to ferry supplies wherever they were needed. For the most part she performed well, in no small part due to the Intrepid's high speed, but her continuing computer problems often saw her idling in dry dock. Slowly she was forgotten and come close to being mothballed.

Intrepid class USS Eagle

In 2384 Starfleet decieded to authorise the total overhaul and refit of the USS Eagle. It took a number of months to complete, but on stardate 238501.15 the refit was finally finished and the Eagle was ready for service. It had recieved an almost total overhaul to bring the Eagle back up to and beyond its original Intrepid Class specifications.

Space efficiency strategies were used to install sophisticated sensor equipment and shield generators as well as an increased torpedo storage and a larger aft shuttle bay. Due to the extra space, the crew quarters are slightly larger and more luxurious than on other intrepid class vessels. In addition, the computer systems were completely replaced with a state of the art Dual Core system with Bio-Neural circuitry and isolinear processors.

Filling the role of a long-range scout vessel, the refitted Eagle is quick and smart. Still a long way from being a warship, her upgrades nonetheless give her the resilience and fire-power required to hold her own in a combat situation, or the time to make a retreat if she is outmatched.
