The Curry-class was a type of cruiser that was fielded by the Federation Starfleet during the 24th century.
Design[]
The Curry class shared many design features with the Excelsior-class namely the saucer section and engineering hull designs. The saucer section was mounted around the centre of the engineering hull such that the forward part of the engineering hull is the forward most part of the vessel.
The nacelles were similar to those used on the older Constitution-class. They are mounted on pylons that travel under the saucer section and swoop down so that the nacelles are in line with the engineering section.
The vessel had extensive shuttlebay facilities. This allowed the vessel to act as a fighter carrier or as an assault ship.[1]
There were two variants of this class recognisable by the orientation of the nacelles. One variant had the nacelles mounted in the traditional fashion while the other has the nacelles mounted sideways. The vessels with the nacelles mounted sideways also have a second set of pylons connecting to the nacelles near the rear of the vessel.
