Shinjuku class

The Shinjuku class was a type of Federation space cruiser active in the early- to mid-23rd century. 

History
The USS Shinjuku was named for the Shinjuku ward of Tokyo. Ships of this class are conventionally named after cities (Tokyo's wards are each administratively cities in their own right).


 * The design is intended to fit between the Daedalus class of the late 22nd century and the Constitution class of the mid-23rd. (Note on TOSS strip #10)

Layout
Ships of this class have an elongated secondary hull and small saucer-shaped primary hull section connected via a short fat neck. The long secondary hull accommodates a large number of general-purpose bays.

Turbolift cars are smaller than on Constitution-class vessels, and cylindrical.

Accomodation
Shinjuku-class ships have food synthesizers but also a galley with cooks who work with a mixture of stored and synthetic ingredients.
