The USS Excelsior is a Federation Starship, Registry NCC-77246. She is at least the second Federation Starship to bear the name. This Excelsior is a Galaxy-III Class Dreadnaught and is capable of supporting a crew compliment of approximately 1200. (HF102, "Enemy Unknown, Part 2") Due to wartime personnel needs, her current crew compliment is approximately 700 crew. Families were relocated to Deep Space 12.

Design and Modifications

When she was first launched, the Excelsior utilized Starfleet's upgraded data storage network featuring bio-neural gel packs and subprocessor nodes. Under the direction of the ship's first Chief Engineer, Robin Lefler, part of the gel pack subprocessor grid was removed and replaced with a less-advanced isolinear-based system, due to a system malfunction within the gelpacks. (HF102, "Enemy Unknown, Part 2") The malfunction prevented the crew from properly aligning the torque sensors, among other issues.
