Originating from an Earth-inspired design, the Horizon class, the first Federation-built ships, entered service on Reference Stardate 0/9310 (October 2093). This was the first class jointly designed and constructed by engineers from several member systems of the UFP. It was also the first class equipped with the new quasi-nuclear photon-neutron torpedoes. An excellent design, it served with Star Fleet's front-line units for decades. More than 1300 were built, and the class remained in service until 2140.[1][2]
