Narendra-class stations are small to mid-size Federation starbase design that draws design inspiration from the likes of the far larger Spacedock Class stations. Designed to be assembled at manufacturing facilities within the Federation and then shipped in pieces to their final locations, the Narendra is essentially a kitset starbase designed for rapid deployment. If parts are in stock and available, a Narendra can be brought online in a new location in a matter of months, versus the years or decade it may take for a larger facility.

The intention was for a class of starbase to support Federation and Starfleet interests at a minimal cost in border sectors while not appearing as an escalation of assets to Federation neighbours who may take umbrage with a larger, more capable and fortified starbase.

Not without their teething issues upon initial activation, each Narendra station has contributed to the success of the next station. Upgrades for the first generation are being considered, though this too is likely in the form of kitset compartments being deployed to expedite the work on site.

Smolboi under construction

The exterior of a Narendra-class is reminiscent of Starfleet's Spacedock Class starbases - giant mushroom in space. The dorsal and ventral aspects of the station house large antenna farms, allowing the station to act as a regional communications relay and repeater as required. Dedicated shield generators protect the antenna farms from focused attacks.

Designed for forward deployment, the Narendra-class carries a wide variety of defensive screens and weaponry. The surface of the station is dotted with phaser array strips, torpedo launchers and older phaser banks in certain locations to provide focused firepower to dissuade attacks along prescribed vectors.

Due to the size of the station, it is not intended or expected to hold off a dedicated attack, but to dissuade raids and rapid strikes as well as buy time enough for reinforcements to arrive.

The Engineering Complex is located below the midpoint of the station and above the fusion generators.

Engineering contains all the essential services for keeping a Narendra-class operational as well as housing backup computer cores and a hardened auxiliary command center commonly used for damage control but capable of full station control if required.

Primary power generation aboard the Narendra-class is achieved by three massive fusion generators located at the bottom of the station. Each generator plant contains four linked fusion reactors that collectively distribute plasma throughout the station. Two of the generator plants are enough to meet the station's power demands which allow for regular rotation in and out of service for maintenance purposes and hardware longevity.
