Ship History
The USS Mackenzie began construction in February of 2392 and was completed in December of 2394. Her shakedown cruise was on January 15th, 2395 and she was certified a month later on February 15th, 2395. She is named after Alexander Slidell MacKenzie, an officer in the United States Navy during the American Civil War. Many ships over the years have carried the name in honor of Mackenzie and his legacy. Her story has just begun.
Design and Layout
The Mackenzie was built to be a force for good in whatever theatre she was assigned. Her bridge is designed to function as a flagship for a higher ranked officer if needed but also serve the day to day functions needed.
The Bridge
The bridge of the USS Mackenzie has been refit once in 2400 by Chief Engineer Katsumi Okada at the direction of Captain Harris. Two consoles were installed in the secondary command chairs and the lighting and carpet colors were changed. All chairs on the bridge are equipped with the latest restraints to ensure safety during turbulent situations.
The helm and tactical stations are at the front of the bridge to allow for concentrated efforts between the two departments. The chairs are able to smoothly shift as need. The three consoles in the rear of the bridge behind the center command chairs are additional tactical stations that are manned during Red Alert scenarios where Battle Stations have been called.
