The pride of Starfleet, the Changi class Heavy Cruisers are possibly the most powerful ships that exist today in the Stellar Federation. These magnificent vessels were built in response to a requirement for a long-range heavily armed capital ship capable of acting in a semi-autonomous role to defend the Stellar Federation's expanding borders. The two examples of this class currently in service were built at the Syria Planum shipyards on Mars.
Ships in class:
- FSS Changi
- FSS Lijang
- FSS Kowloon (under construction)
