Sovereign class starship
'''Sovereign Class''' starships in the [[fiction]]al [[Star Trek]] universeIn the [[fiction]]al universe of ''[[Star Trek]]'', the '''''Sovereign'' class''' of [[starship]]s are the most advanced ships in [[Starfleet]] around the year 2373.

A ''Sovereign C''-class starship has 24 decks, and is equipped with [[Quantum Torpedo]]s.

Only two ''Sovereign C''-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]].
