THE U.S.S. RAVEN WAS BUILT TO SERVE AS FLAGSHIPS OF FLEET ADMIRALS OR 
CAPTAINS AND  LEAD FLEETS INTO ENGAGEMENTS AND ENSURE THE FLEET 
COMMANDER 
WOULD SURVIVE. IN THE PAST, ESPECIALLY DURING THE DOMINION WARS, MOST 
ADMIRALS HAD EXCELSIOR CLASSES OR NEBULA CLASSES AS THEIR PERSONAL 
FLAGSHIPS, ONLY A FEW EXCEPTIONS LIKE ADMIRAL WILLIAM ROSS CHOSE AN 
INTREPID 
CLASS, THE U.S.S. BELLREPHON AS HIS. THE RAVEN WAS CONCEIVED TO GIVE A 
FLEET 
COMMANDER A MORE STABLE PLATFORM, WITH MORE FIREPOWER TO USE AS A 
FLAGSHIP.

TO ACHIEVE THIS PURPOSE, THE RAVEN WAS EQUIPPED WITH A HOLOGRAPHIC 
TACTICAL 
CENTRE WHICH ALLOWS A FLEET COMMANDER A 360 DEGREE VIEW WHICH ALLOWS 
HIM/HER 
TO KEEP TRACK OF THE BATTLE. THE "TAC CENTRE" OR ADMIRAL'S BRIDGE ALSO 
ALLOWS BETTER CO-ORDINATION BETWEEN THE FLAGSHIP AND THE FLEET.  AN 
EMERGENCY COMMAND HOLOGRAM HAS ALSO BEEN INSTALLED INTO THE SHIP. IF 
THE 
SHIPS CREW IS KILLED, THE ECH WOULD TAKE OVER ALL SHIP FUNCTIONS AND 
ENSURE 
THE SURVIVAL OF THE SHIP. UNDER NORMAL CONITIONS, THE ECH WOULD SERVE 
AS AN 
ADVISER ONLY!!
THE RAVEN WAS ALSO DESIGNED WITH ATMOSPHERIC ENTRY AND LANDING 
CAPABILITY. 
THIS ALLOWS THE RAVEN TO SERVE AS A MOBILE COMMAND POST FOR GROUND 
TROOPS 
DURING PLANETARY ASSAULTS.

ANOTHER ADDED FEATURE ON THE RAVEN IS THE USAGE OF THE MODULAR POD 
SYSTEMS 
FOUND ON NEBULA CLASS VESSELS. THE PODS ARE MORE INTERCHANGABLE NOW, 
COMPARED TO THOES ON THE NEBULA. THIS IS DUE TO THE USAGE OF MAGNETIC 
INTERLOCK COUPLINGS FOUND ON GALAXY AND PROMETHEUS CLASSES. DUE TO 
THIS, THE 
RAVEN CLASSES HAS A MORE FLEXIBLE CLASS AND WIDER RANGE OF PODS. THERE 
IS 
THE USUAL WEAPONS AND SENOR PODS. NEW PODS LIKE THE ASSAULT PODS AND 
TRIDENT 
POD ARE CURRENTLY UNDER TESTING. THE ASSAULT POD ALLOWS THE RAVEN TO 
CARRY 
MORE ATTACK SHUTTLES TO LAND TROOPS WITH.  THE TRIDENT POD IS NOT 
EXACTLY A 
POD. ITS ACTUALLY A TRIDENT CLASS LIGHT SCOUT CONNECTED TO THE SHIP. 
THE 
TRIDENT SERVES AS AN ADMIRALS BARGE OR SCOUTING SHIP.  IT IS ALSO STILL 
CURRENTLY UNDER TESTING.
