Starbase 118 Inactive Ships Division
The Starbase 118 Inactive Ships Division, a taskforce within the Fleet's Ship Systems Command, is tasked with reviewing the inactive ships within the fleet for current and/or future use. This includes possible use for future fleet active ships as well as permanent inactivation.
The ISD classfies ships within its jurisdiction into 5 catagories:
Category B (CatB): These ships are inactive, but contue to receive upgrades and maintainance to retain availability for reactivation on short notice.
Category C (CatC): These ships are maintained as-is, meaning that, while they are not allowed to degrade, they do not receive updates or upgrades unless funding is left over after CatB ships are finished.
Category D (CatD): These ships are maintained as-is, pending alternative use by the fleet. The most common use for CatD ships is as remotely controlled targets, though some have been used for other classifed purposes as well.
Category X (CatX): These ships are being held pending disposal. These ships will entually be removed for scrap and do not receive any maintainence (exception: those on museum hold receive basic maintainance for basic life-support systems only),
Category Z (CatZ): These ships still contain classified or hazardous materials and as such are held under extra guard and receive some basic maintainence to safeguard the materials in question.
