Soyuz class

The 'Soyuz-class was a type of Federation starship, serving in Starfleet during the late 23rd century before its retirement by 2290.

Exterior Design
Similar in design to the Miranda-class, the typical Soyuz-class starship had an enlarged aft section housing cargo- and shuttlebays. Several large outboard sensor pods, sometimes mistaken for heavy weapon mounts, also graced the enlarged aft section.

Soyuz-class starships were approximately 240 meters long.
