The '''USS Chin'toka''' is an {{c|Akira}} starship under the command of Captain [[Mei'konda]]. In service for over two decades, Starfleet decided to update the Akira-class to better reflect the requirements of the service. The upgrades made to the class (dubbed the 2397 variant) aimed to make the class a multi-mission capable vessel. The USS Chin'toka (NCC-97187) is the first of the 2397 Akira class variants, boasting an updated propulsion system, a newly developed mission pod, state of the art scientific and medical facilities along with an expanded complement of auxiliary craft. | |||

Due to the shifting nature of the politics within the [[Par'tha Expanse]], including the recent resurgence of the Romulan Star Empire and Romulan Republic in the region, Starfleet Command has made the decision to replace the [[USS Atlantis]] with the USS Chin'toka as the Federation's flagship within the Expanse. It is hoped that such a move will cement the Federation's place in the region and reassure its allies of their commitment. | Due to the shifting nature of the politics within the [[Par'tha Expanse]], including the recent resurgence of the Romulan Star Empire and Romulan Republic in the region, Starfleet Command has made the decision to replace the [[USS Atlantis]] with the USS Chin'toka as the Federation's flagship within the Expanse.
