'''''Anchorage''-class stations''' are among the most common stations in the Federation. Based on the same rough planform as the much smaller [[Regula Class|''Regula''-class research station]], the ''Anchorage''-class is intended as a consistent and steady presence of the Federation, acting as a hub for local trade, starship servicing, navigational assistance and static defence. The class serves either as a standalone starbase or as the orbital component of larger planetside bases for smaller colony worlds with underdeveloped space-based infrastructure.


==History==
==Objectives==
Coming out of the same program that gave rise to the [[Vision Class|''Vision''-class]] starbases, the ''Anchorage''-class is the largest design that originated from the [[Regula Class|''Regula''-class]] stations. With a commonality of components, design language and a majority of prefabricated components, the ability for the Federation to assemble an ''Anchorage''-class station in a timely fashion allowed for the replacement of strategic and economically important older K-class stations during the middle of the 2300s.


At the time of its original development and deployment, the ''Anchorage''-class was a top-of-the-line facility built with a broad mission scope and with spare capacity to meet the needs of the coming decades. With multiple external hardpoints, the original designers envisioned the class of starbase to be able to be expanded upon and grown until such time as the starbase had organically become the basis of a unique facility, or deemed important enough to warrant replacement with a full scale [[Spacedock Class|''Spacedock''-class]] starbase.

==Overview==


Lessons learned from the design, development, deployment and decades of experience with the ''Anchorage''-class stations ultimately have given rise to the station's replacement in terms of mission scope - the [[Narenda Class|''Narendra''-class]] station. The prefabricated design, commonality of parts and systems with other contemporary designs and ability to be assembled in a speedy fashion are lessons learned that have carried over into the newer breed of border outposts. With the oldest ''Anchorage''-class stations approaching mid-life currently and the last one constructed just prior to the outbreak of hostilities of the Dominion, ''Anchorage''-class stations will be a sight across the Federation for decades, if not centuries to come as these venerable and capable facilities continue in their roles.
For the last decade and a half, Task Force 93 has served as a humanitarian and peacekeeping force along the Romulan border. Following the hypernova of 2387, it was tasked with securing the former Neutral Zone, protecting Federation interests in the Beta Quadrant. Worlds have been abandoned by the Federation and [[Romulan Factions]] alike, left to fend for themselves against the ravages of regional dangers, fledgling and weak infrastructures, and natural disasters. With the [[Fourth Fleet]]'s repurposing with a galactic mandate, it was deemed Task Force 93 take this skill and expertise to all troubled corners of the galaxy.


==''Anchorage''-class Stations In-play==
Recent years have seen many powers withdrawing their support to many regions as they reinforce the borders they can protect. In their wake are worlds vulnerable to regional piracy or exploitation by other powers, worlds forced to rebuild governance and infrastructure from scratch, worlds lacking any support should the worst happen. Be they independent or answering to a higher government, Federation or otherwise, the support that now arrives fastest is from Task Force 93.
*''Anchorage''-class stations are the older border outposts and guard stations of the Federation, not the mighty floating cities like [[Guardian Class|''Guardian''-class]] stations. With a crew of a thousand aboard they are still respectable-sized stations and continue in their original purpose for the foreseeable future.
*Due to their size limitations and the considerations of the era they were designed in, ''Anchorage''-class stations are decent staging posts for fleet actions but are ill-equipped for large-scale repairs and refits, more likely leaning into making ships ready to continue to dedicated repair facilities than undertaking work themselves.

This work is more than bringing blankets. It takes engaging with communities to meet their needs, navigating fraught diplomacy with local leaders and their conflicting priorities, providing protection from opportunistic pirates that might see such a world ripe for the taking, or nearby powers that might see them ripe for seizing. Across the galaxy are worlds that have been chewed up and spat out by one government or another. To some, Task Force 93 is a welcome helping hand. To others, a necessary shield.
 
==Task Force Assets and Headquarters==
 
While Task Force 93 is no longer the major Starfleet force supervising the Neutral Zone, it retains its headquarters at [[Starbase 93]] on the border, which is home to Devron Fleet Yards.

== Task Force History ==
When Task Force 93's mandate of providing support to those who needed it the most changed in 2399, assets were redeployed to ensure that the Task Force's focus was not just along the fractured border that the Federation now shared with the various Romulan factions. That said, the initial response from Task Force 93 maintained a focus near to the former Neutral Zone.
 
==== The Archanis Campaign ====
One of the biggest operations that Task Force 93 was fully involved with was the unexpected invasion of the  [[Hunters of D'Ghor]] of the [[Archanis Sector]]. Along with other ships from the Fourth Fleet, ships from Task Force 93 entered the Archanis Sector to assist with repelling the rogue Klingons and providing support to Federation worlds, outposts and other assets that were affected. The clean-up operation, after Starfleet forces were successful with their efforts, was led by Task Force 93. Restoring stability along the border was essential. Task Force 93 ships saw themselves having to prove to Federation colonies that the threat was now removed and that the Federation government took the incident seriously. Further construction of defence networks took place, alongside providing care and aid.
 
==== The Echoes of the Tkon ====
During the end of 2399, every single ship across Starfleet was placed on high alert after multiple sightings of the [[Omega molecule]] were reported. Task Force 93 ships were assigned to the duty of not only dealing with this threat, but also found them having to help ships that found themselves stranded after some molecules exploded, causing disruption in subspace and preventing warp drive to be used in some areas of known space. Furthermore, certain worlds and bases were left without any external support, as a result Task Force 93 became that vital lifeline to them. Eventually ships were given the order to provide assistance in tracking down [[Tkon Empire]] artefacts, which eventually resulted in the removal of the Omega threat and other dangers that this incident brought. Lessons learnt from the post recovery efforts from the Archanis Campaign prepared Task Force 93, for once again helping those who need assistance in rebuilding.
 
==== The Stormbreaker Campaign ====
In early 2400, the [[Century Storm]] hit the [[ma:Paulson Nebula|Paulson Nebula]] and the surrounding region. This phenomenon severely affected those ships, stations and colonies that existed in this area, causing huge disruption to communication and placing lives on the line. To prevent millions from being killed, the Federation government ordered an immediate evacuation of the area. Task Force 93 ships saw action, along with other ships from the Fourth Fleet, to help those who were affected by the countless ion storms. The entire event took time and many installations were either lost or severely damaged by the ion storms. Though many were saved, some were not as fortunate as others. Many search and rescue missions were undertaken by ships in Task Force 93.
 
==== Sundered Wings ====
Having so many ships and stations based near to the shared border with the Romulans, Task Force 93 found itself in the thick of it when the [[Star Empire of Rator]] collapsed and the [[Velorum Sector]] declared its independence before seeking assistance from the Federation. This massive political upheaval caused a high level of tension between the Federation and the various [[Romulan Factions]]. Task Force 93 ships were given the mandate to send ships into the area and provide relief effort to those Romulan worlds that were isolated from others and required the support to support their populations. The Velorum Sector eventually opted to join the [[Romulan Republic]] once a majority of their worlds were stabilised, thanks to the efforts of Starfleet and a meditated deal led by the Federation.
