Specifications - USS Sunfire

Summary

The Sunfire is equipped with an experimental Transwarp drive. Not unlike what Starfleet was trying to develop in the 23rd century, and like the Borg used, however, this does not require a Hub network.

Transwarp Mk II:
Maximum Velocity: 1000 Light Years per Hour for 5 hours
Maximum Emergency Velocity: 3000 Light Years per Hour for 1 hour

Note: Transwarp drive utilized a combination of the traditional warp drive, navigational deflector and deflector shields as its components. The ship is taken to warp factor 2.3 to generate the initial required large subspace field. The navigational deflector is modified to use a tachyon matrix within it to emit tachyon bursts on a high-energy band. The deflector shield of the ship is used to emit the tachyon bursts into space at the resonant transwarp frequency level. The subspace field of the conduit then formed in front of the ship.

Ten minutes of preparation, inspection, and warm-up are required. Afterwards, the system will require at least 2 hours to cool down and a minimum of 72 hours if the auto-shutdown sequence is initiated. Even though there is a 'warp' factor to it.

Transwarp actually jumps from one spot to another through the Transwarp conduit created. A draw back is that another ship if close enough and the exact coordinates can follow through the same conduit.

When used against multiple targets, it moves from target to target absorbing energy, until it unleashes its combined accumulated force on the final target.
