One of the mainstays of the Federation fleet, the [[Miranda class]] has been in continuous service for over a century. A prime example of the adaptability and durability of Starfleet design and engineering, the vessels have undergone a continual cycle of refits and upgrades to maintain their usefulness within the fleet. Despite this, the class is nearing the end of its operational lifespan. The regular improvements to the ships cannot get around one simple fact; the core framework of the vessels is out-of-date and unable to support the very latest of technologies. Many have already been retired from front-line service, now used for simple cargo trawls or leisurely diplomatic runs. | One of the mainstays of the Federation fleet, the [[Miranda class]] has been in continuous service for over a century.
