The Luna is a more versatile Akira, and trimmed down Nebula. Starfleet intended it as the heavy-medium long-range explorer jack of all trades. A refreshment for the Nebula, and probably easier to build. The Nebula is actually quite big and personnel intensive for most of the mission sets it has.

Came here to say pretty much this. Take an Akira, trim out the massive hanger, stretch it out, and add some sensors and larger living areas. Now you’ve got an Akira with endurance and science capabilities. She’s not meant to be part of a fleet action, she’s meant to range deep into unexplored space and defend itself if need be. Starfleet doesn’t only fight wars, and they don’t think of war fighting capabilities of ships, for better or worse. In this case I think the analysis is more in the style of a 2370’s Star Fleet Battles universe rather than the canon Star Trek universe.

I'd like to give a different approach to discuss: When Voyager returned from the Delta Quadrant and Starfleet got it's hands on the logs and reports from the crew they noticed that a ship like the Nova Class USS Equinox is not quite suited for these long range exploration missions, while the bigger Intrepid Class USS Voyager could perform pretty well although she fell in WAY to many traps set up by other alien races... and Seska... So they learned from these lessons and designed a new long range exploration cruiser with a tiny bit more firepower but a way more powerfull sensor equipment. I mean "sending" a Nebula Class into the Delta Quadrant would have been far to expensive for Starfleet although it would have been a pretty tough statement in terms of kicking some a**. On the other hand without a supply base to swap the mission pods, that Nebula would have only one configuration to go with. So let's sum this up and we see that the Luna class is actually a merge of the mission profiles of the Intrepid and Nebula classes. That newly designed pod, that combines the Nebulas AWACS and weapons pods capabilities deals with some of the issues of the Intrepid class, mainly it's sensor arrays where designed to scan anomalies but lack the surveillance aspects. On the other hand the Luna is less expensive to operate and needs fewer personell to get the job done compared to the Nebula. I don't actually think the Luna class was designed as kind of a Science Destroyer.. it was more like an evolution of the Intrepid, added the capabilities of a Nebula to make her a little tougher. I just does not make really sense to see the Luna as a competitor to ships like the Akira or Vesta. The Akira is sent to places as a show of force.. I mean nothing tells people to not anger the Federation as good as hundreds of Torpedoes just waiting to be fired in every possible direction (some pictures of the Akira modell even show side facing torpedo launchers.. pure badass) And when that is STILL not enough... Just send the Prometheus and leave no survivors... If you need "aggresive scouting" and spotting enemy fleet movements... nothing can beat the Vesta and her Slipstream drive.. Fly in, scan the area and then get out with no one beeing able to catch up. And if she get's into a brawl.. Well.. It's the Vesta, that thing is almost als large as a Sovereign and packs one hell of a punch! So in my point of view the Luna is an evolution of the Intrepid class. Don't get me wrong the Intrepid is a nice design, but it has some flaws, which the Luna perfectly get's fixed, while keeping her still as economically effective as the Intrepid is due to relatively medium size. I am sure she was designed with fighting the Borg in mind but I doubt Starfleet would send such a ship into a battle when they already have far better suited ships to deal with them

Judging by its on-screen appearance in Lower Decks and the back story that's been published on it in books, by yourself and others, my theory is that the Luna class: Titan was a long-range Explorer/fast-attack cruiser. Starfleet has finally re-learned the lesson that the galaxy is very, very dangerous place if you want to keep going into the unknown. It doesn't actually need a gigantic armament, it's real weapon is its speed, manoeuvrability and subspace radio. Seriously, if Riker needs to send out a distress call what turns up is variously nicknamed: 'Daddy's Home,' 'bIjatlh 'e' yImevQo'!' & 'Lloann'mhrahel's ra'khoi!' and it's captain will be the scariest bald guy in history! The Titan is Riker with warp nacelles! If it could cock up one of them up on something, it would. Also, could we stop talking about the Space Canoe/Disruptor fodder, Oberth. The damn thing was obsolete in Star Trek III. It has less screen time than some of the kit-bashes at the end of Wolf 359. The NX Enterprise could hang in a fight with the Klingons longer than it! What was with that Cardassian ship in the picture chasing the Titan, but it's nacelle wings seem to be on backwards? Did the Cardassian monks change the style of their cloaks? As for the Luna nicking other ships jobs, it's not actually their jobs, these are assignments. They go where the Admiralty says they're going. Anyway, somehow I don't think anybody's stealing the Intrepid's crown when it comes to extreme long range exploration!

Seems to me like Starfleet was forced to diversify their defensive doctrines by having to face the various forces arrayed against them (Borg, Dominion, Cardasdians, etc...). Whereas Starfleet was used to previously dealing with the Kilngons, Romulans, etc., a standard 'shield doctrine' was sufficient and most Starfleet vessels had little to no armor and an adequate hull structure but excelled at deflector shield technology. The Borg could still be mostly handled through a strong shield doctrine but inspired the development of using armor to supplement defensive shields. The Dominion forces used polaron based weaponry that easily cut through deflector shields and thus forced Starfleet to enhance development of a fleet using an armor doctrine for defense. Facing the Dominion also spurred the development of a 'Hull' defense doctrine for the larger Starfleet vessels like the Galaxy class. By removing the excess, fluff systems, the wartime Galaxys could tank enormous amounts of damage before suffering critical system damage and hang in pitched battles far longer and required much less maintenance and repair times. It seems to me like the Luna was one if the 'test bed' designs that toyed with the idea of a 'shield doctrine' version of the Akira. There's probably quite a few ship classes in Starfleet that seem like an overlap of other designs but are, in reality, just a different defense doctrine design. Having a ships with similar roles but different defense doctrines seems like an idea that Starfleet would go for given the diversity of antagonist fleets and unusual phenomena they encounter.
@venomgeekmedia9886

Yeah well when facing the klingons and romulans in the 23rd century starfleet ships were generally heavier and less agile. So worked best in formation. However the cardassians employed rigid formations to compensate for their weaker ships and of course against the borg: formations are a death sentence which lead starfleet to develop ships that were more klingon in design.

There's always some "controversy" amongst Trek fans when it comes to ships. For instance, you've often said a 700 meter long ship is "huge!". It's a decent size to *me*, but not "huge". I'd love to see a mile long new Enterprise or Starfleet ship. We can always debate about how'd they'd work inU, and there's some design flaws or things that wouldn't work well that we could point to objectively, possibly. I personally like the Luna class. Not my absolute favorite but it's a cool ship. Just got the Eaglemoss model of it too. Regular size, not the XL unfortunately.

In the Titan book series it explains the design purpose of the Luna Class. They were designed as long range Exploration ships for exploring the Gama quadrant however the outbreak of the Dominion War put a stop to those plans & put a hold on the production of the class which wasn't helped by the engineering accident aboard the U.S.S. Luna herself that Destroyed? or at least damaged beyond reasonable repair that ship. After the Dominion war the class finally went into limited production with around a dozen ships being built.

It wasn't actually first introduced by STO. The origins of it in beta canon is from a series of books from 2007, although it was still very much intended to serve as the long-range research/science ship of the 'anti-borg ship' generation of vessels, with the delay in her introduction being due to the Gamma Quadrant being inaccessible for Dominion war-related reasons.

Respectfully, come on, it's the miranda/nebula version of the sovereign. It is one of the normal designs, not a part of the purpose built Borg fleet ships The nebulas are battleships to the Galaxy battlecruisers, as were the mirandas to the constitutions (ignoring the side canon dreadnoughts), which is the reason they stayed viable as fighting ships, because speed was not their thing, but loadout was. I would argue that the sovereign had more a fast battleship role which allowed the line to become a more standard cruiser I don't know about STO, but the Vesta was more of a faster sovereign update

The Vesta has a mission profile more in line with the original intention of the Galaxy class than the Sovereign. They don’t have that much in common.

Similar capital-ship grade armament though a bit lighter in overall number on a smaller, cheaper to produce frame.

I think that the Luna might have been the final stage of Anti Borg Fleet ship. Everything else was simply ships designed to fill roles as quickly as possible. Ships that are tough because they need to be, fast because they have to be, and with bog phasers because they need them. The Luna looks like a late war design optimized and standardized. It may have been commissioned by the tens of thousands... and then the war ended. it is like the battleships and destroyers and cruisers that were designed at the end of World War 2, were set to be manufactured by the hundreds, and then... were not. many stopped construction halfway and were never completed. Or perhaps the F-22 from the Cold War of Star Trek's Borg war. the F-22 was designed to fight the Soviet Union and be the best of the best while outnumbered in nuclear hellfire... but that war is not a thing, and the Soviet Union is gone. Now we have the F-35, which takes the cutting edge F-22 tech and just... makes it relevant to modern war against modern enemies. So, the Luna could be the F-35 multi-role fighter. It is a ship built from the technology and principles of the previous war, but in a single package to do everything well. The Sovereign is the F-22 air-superiority fighter. So, A single sovereign with a support wing of 3 or 4 Lunas could destroy a cube solo because that is what they are designed to do, but now there are no more borg cubes to solo.

I don't feel as though the design of the new fleet, or anti-borg fleet, as it is sometimes called, is so specific to the Borg threat that it suffered against other threats. Having ships that can brawl, provide fire support, etc is a pretty universal requirement. The Nova is new, But should be quickly producible so I wouldn't hold that against it, But it is a quite slow ship by 24th century standards. Maximum speed of Warp 8, even if that's the Top sustainable speed and not the absolute maximum, isn't great for a modern Federation ship. But why not create an Akira Variant or some-such that replaces the Torpedo pod with the Sensor EW capabilites of the Luna's pod? It's already proven and in service, and they are practically the same size and Vintage (within a decade of each other, the Akira is not a slouch in technical terms and could definitely take on new technology) so I'd have to assume it could take on the capabilities. Add some additional armour plating to toughen it up, Something which I would hope the Akira has the growth potential to accept and may have even been done over the course of the war. Of course, Because it's me, I have to mention the Intrepid, also known as the center of my universe. It is new, Top of the line and packed with bleeding edge technology, including sensors. So I do feel like it could handle the Recon job as well Luna. I don't feel there'd be much of any distinction there. I don't know how it would do with the electronic warfare side of things, I could see it being refit internally for it. Like removing most of the science labs and decreasing cargo bay space to make room for EW equipment. Maybe it could put that secondary deflector to use for EW stuff? But under a wartime refit much of that space might have already been taken up by other stuff. Unless it was a Wartime intention to use Intrepid for that role. Of course Intrepid's other main value as a Recon ship is it's speed. No other ship in Starfleet is listed as having a cruise speed as high as Intrepid's, so it could without doubt outrun anything else on the battlefield. It's compact profile also makes it less noisy than a larger vessel like the Nebula. I feel it would make an excellent mid-sized Recon ship. But it would perhaps suffer when it came to providing Fleet EW. Which I feel could be covered by the Nebula

We played a Star Trek game a while ago and we used a Luna class as the hero ship. The multifunction pod was used in many different ways to facilitate the story. It makes a great ship for storytelling.

In terms of design longevity, the Titan-Prime herself should've lasted at least 75 to 100 years. When we saw the Titan-A in 'Star Trek: Picard' and how apparently parts of that craft were directly constructed from the original Titan. My curiosity is this: What happened to the original Titan that go her so put through the bollocks that she ended up as shipyard-bait...? (ADDENDUM: The same holds true for the Enterprise-E, and the Enterprise-F was still WAAAY too young herself to get cashiered the way we saw - she wasn't even 15 years old yet, best guess.) Hopefully these questions will end up getting properly answered.

they wanted to trade on nostalgia with a lost era style ship but required it to have a name and tie it in to TNG some how so the titan got chopped up and mated to the hull of a hundred year old ship to make it a franken ship. there isnt any inuniverse logic they just wanted it to be a lost era hull.

What? Electronic warfare is, canonically, the _most_ important priority in fighting the Borg. Exploiting flaws in their communication network lead directly to the destruction of at least two of the cubes that attacked Earth -- sending a false order to regenerate in the case of the first, and Picard being able to listen in on their damage control efforts in the second. They're a hive mind. Disrupting their communications renders them helpless.

The Akira is also, I think, a good post-war starship. It is a huge evaluation ship that could work moving colonists to or away from a colony. It also has a lot of scientific equipment to perform explorations, and it borrows a lot of its design from the Galaxy actually, including its massive shuttle bay. It is like the Intrepid and Akira starships that seem to be between the Golden Age and the Anti-borg Starfleet. Also, the Vesta seems like it was less designed to be scientific and more to be an anti-starship starship than even the Sovereign. It had phaser cannons, an anti-starship weapon, and a general do-all weapon called phaser arrays. Its armor was more built up than any other ship in the era and was larger than a Sovereign. And its main weapons were quantum torpedoes and transphasic torpedoes. You know, anti-borg torpedoes. Also, the only know Vesta I know, the USS Aventine, was used more to run interference of hostile parties, investigate possible attacks, conduct dangerous salvage missions in enemy territory, and perform attack missions, especially against the Borg and Breen. In fact, did it ever perform any exploratory missions that were not investigated for possible Breen or Typhon Pact involvement? I am drawing a blank, but I did not read all of the books. The only thing suggested is an explorer was due to the class being called a multi-mission explorer cruiser, which they also call Sovereign class, and it is obviously a battlecruiser (a heavy cruiser that's firepower is close to a battleship or dreadnaught).

During tue dommion war had starfleet would of been smart instead of putting 2372 the luna class on the back burner starfleet would of been started to replaced mirenda class ship as early as 2373 near to federation core with lina class ships sectors

My thoughts on the Luna is that with the Borg threat emerging, StarFleet started their new program with Sovereigns, Akiras, etc. More combat oriented ships. However, the Borg are still a big unknown, they are a threat but no one really knows when they will actually attack again. To the Federation the Borg might not actually attack again for another 10, 20, 50 years? So while planning all these combat anti-Borg ships, they didn't want to fully abandon the generalized exploration and science cruiser. But they needed these generalized exploration vessels to be smaller and cheaper than Galaxies and Nebulas, but still bigger and wider role than the Nova; Basically a smaller Galaxy or Nebula without the overkill luxuries and excesses, but still capable of doing the same job.

@@venomgeekmedia9886 exactly I think the Intrepid was an attempt to miniaturize and cram all the Galaxy's equipment and some upgrades into a smaller package. While the Luna is a "lets remove everything we don't need to do the same job as the Galaxy" and put it in a smaller package. So its still capable, but a lot cheaper and not overkill. Plus after the Dominion War and resources free up, there's always the possibility to give them a bit of an upgrade if needed, repackage them for specific roles like electronic warfare, or just phase them out for the next model without too much expense wasted.

Nebula has different geometry compared to galaxy so its probably slower. But given its more squared off shape perhaps it is easier to handle at warp with a shorter turn radius.

Luna is a science/explorer designed to replace the Nebula and Intrepid class. Easier to build than an Intrepid, with more modern warp nacelles and heavier weaponry. She's not part of the anti-borg fleet, rather Star Fleet took advantage of the technical advancements and construction techniques learned from building the anti-borg fleet to build her. And if war does come, well, she makes a decently armed and armored recon asset.
