''Prometheus'' class heavy [[Starfleet Starships: Cruisers|cruisers]] are an onset of combat support Fleet vessels, designed primarily in response to technologically advanced threats facing the Federation. Developed from a combination of technologies pioneered by the [[ma:Defiant class|''Defiant'']], [[ma:Sovereign class|''Sovereign'']] and [[ma:Intrepid class|''Intrepid'']] classes, the ''Prometheus'' utilizes the latest in ablative armour, warp field technology, and quantum weaponry. It is the only ship class which is capable of separating into three sections (upper engineering hull, lower engineering hull, and the saucer section) coordinated through its [[ma:Multi-vector assault mode|multi-vector assault mode]]. | ''Prometheus'' class heavy [[Starfleet Starships: Cruisers|cruisers]] are an onset of combat support Fleet vessels, designed primarily in response to technologically advanced threats facing the Federation.

Strikingly beautiful and incredibly serene, the Prometheus Class allows the capabilities of a scientific vessel in the midst of deep space, giving room for families and civilians. As such, the Tiger-A is equipped with the latest in Starfleet's recreational enhancements to enrich the lives of those serving and residing on board. Combining a state of the art outfit with the protection that the Prometheus Class starship provides, the crew of the Tiger-A may be safe in the knowledge that their loves ones are cared for. | Strikingly beautiful and incredibly serene, the Prometheus Class allows the capabilities of a scientific vessel in the midst of deep space, giving room for families and civilians.

Using the [[USS Independence-A]] as an example, the [[USS Tiger-A]] has been a hotbed and a springboard for the research and development of several new technologies that can only benefit the fleet's position in the Ithassa Region in the long years to come. While the ''Tiger''-A was designed as a tactical assault cruiser, it serves a much wider role, filling deep space exploration and diplomatic/military roles and utilizing the full advancements of science, medical, and engineering facilities to continue the exploration and defence of the [[Ithassa Region]] as Starfleet's Flagship vessel until it was inactivated after an Iconian virus crippled the ship and sent to drydock for repair. | |||
