Liberty Class VII Freighter
From the FASA Star Trek FEDERATION SHIP RECOGNITION
MANUAL, circa 1985
Liberty Class VII Freighter
Notes: The Liberty Class freighters have been in the service of Star Fleet
since Stardate 1/8806. For 35 years, these ships have plied the spacelanes,
carrying untold quantities of goods and materials to all corners of the
Federation. More than any other ship, the Liberty Class ships symbolize the
UFP's commercial advance into known space.
These freighters were used extensively during the Four Years War to
carry supplies into forward areas. For such missions, they were armed to help
in protecting the convoys from Klingon ambush, but their light weapons were of
little use against the sophisticated weapons of the Klingons. On one occasion,
a convoy made up of 20 Liberties was attacked by a small group of Klingon
ships. They managed to drive off the Klingons, destroying one with a loss of
only two vessels.
Of the 1,260 Liberty Class freighters built, 161 Mk Is and 492 Mk Ills
remain in active service, with 68 Mk Is and 10 Mk Ills in reserve fleets. Four
Mk Ills are used by Star Fleet Training Command; 188 Mk Is and 51 Mk Ills have
been destroyed; 24 Mk Is have been captured by the Klingons; 33 Mk Is and 9 Mk
Ills are listed as missing; 126 Mk Is and 18 Mk Ills have been scrapped; and 48
Mk Is and 28 Mk Ills have been sold.
Production of the Mk I was halted on Stardate 2/1203. The Mk III is
produced at the Tellar, Cait, Morena, and Sol ll facilities. The combined annual
production rate is 32.
