'''Sovereign Class''' starships in the [[fiction]]al [[Star Trek]] universe are the most advanced ship in [[Starfleet]] around the year 2373.

A Sovereign Class starship has 24 decks, and is equipped with [[Quantum Torpedo]]s.

Only two Sovereign Class ships have ever been built:

* The original USS Sovereign ([[NCC|NX]]-73811), prototype of its class and testbed for several new technologies like enhanced deflectors and shields; The program was considered a failure when it turned out that the availiable warp cores at that time were not powerful enough to suit the huge energy needs of the ship's systems.
* The [[Starship Enterprise|USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E]], commanded by Captain [[Jean-Luc Picard]]. In contrast to the USS Sovereign, this ship was equipped with conventional shields and deflectors. As of 2373, it is the flagship of the [[Starfleet]].
