The United Federation of Planets has a variety of more than 30 starship classes in the 24th century. A number of these ship classes have been prominently featured or were at least briefly shown, while the appearances of several other canon ship classes remain unknown. The mission objective of the Advanced Starship Design Bureau (ASDB) is to develop consistent designs for these obscure classes, based on fragmentary specs given in episodes or official books such as the TNG Technical Manual.
Star Trek Intelligence is the largest and most in-depth intelligence information database containing Alpha Quadrant starships and technology information.
The Starship Schematic Site is dedicated to the sole purpose of archiving every single starship design ever conceived in the Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5, and Space Cruiser Yamato Universes, both official and unofficial, interesting and mediocre.
The Starfleet Museum was established in 2213 with the goal of preserving historically important Starfleet vessels for future generations. Because of the rapid pace of technologic advance, older ship types are usually stripped and broken up or sold to local defense forces soon after more modern vessels enter service.
