Choreographer

The Choreographer-class tender is the smaller, older, and significantly less impressive Horizon fleet tender design. Able to support up to six corvettes of the Dancer or Virtuoso classes, the design is in fact quite impressive when viewed through lense of its age: it is a half-century old and would have been extremely formidable in comparison to Starfleet's own Constitution-A designs of the time, even without its corvette wing to support it. When considered with its supporting corvettes a Choreographer is still a formidable force, but not nearly so much as the larger and more modern Sanctuary-class ships.

It has a remarkable 1,350 crew.

Despite having been in service for half a century -the first Choreographer having launched in 2273- the Harmony appears to have no desire to retire the Choreographers currently in service. The Harmony seems content merely with relegating the design to rear area and support missions at this time. This seems to be in character with the Harmony which has been observed to operate the same designs for upwards of a century until retirement.

Initially drafted by the hard working artists of the Tahlan Starship Design Institute, and finalized by the Singers of the Antaria Valley Advanced Cognition School, the first Choreographer Pattern Support Tender entered service with the Peacekeeper Directorate in CMXXIV Harmony Era [COS Note: 2273].

Initially designed to replace the aging Vigilant Pattern Patrol Tender, the Choreographer-CMXXIV Pattern Support Tender expanded the squadron capacity from four to six corvettes, and saw the initial introduction of the the dedicated Sarium Krellide recharging system. The first flight of Choreographer Pattern Tenders also introduced the famed Opus X distributed duotronic computer network into general service.

The Choreographer Pattern Tender served as the Uniformed Spacegoing Services’ primary frontline command ship until the introduction of the Sanctuary Pattern Fleet Tender in CMLVI HE whereupon the the Peacekeeping Directorate began phasing out Choreographers from frontline service and transferring them to the Public Safety Directorate where they replaced the last Vigilant Pattern Tenders still in service.

Currently the majority of the Choreographer-CMLX Pattern Support Tenders in service with the Uniformed Spacegoing Services act as the Flagships of the Public Safety Directorate’s XIV Precinct Squadrons.
