The Tar'Hana Class Cruiser came from the result of the need for a new Deep Space Science Cruiser that can both defend itself and maintain a scientific profile. The Tar'Hana class was developed as a multi-function vessel capable of medium to long length mission across new-found space.
Manoeuvrable, and well armed; the Tar'Hana never made it into major production prior to the Krynar Crisis and only a total of four Cruisers were initially constructed. Tar'Hana-class Cruisers are all around capable of solo missions without assistance. In combination their speed, weaponry, advanced sensors, and defence capabilities allow them to be prepared for any situation. The Federation discontinued the Tar'Hana project following the Krynar Crisis due to resources being needed for the [[Fleet Modernization Program]], which promised designs with more up-to-date technologies which are individually more capable than the Tar'Hana class. After the failure of the Beckett-class, construction of new Tar'Hana class Cruisers was reinstated to act as a stopgap measure, filling in the gaps left by decommissioned ships until more modern designs became available.
The name Tar'Hana comes from Mount Tar'Hana, an active volcano and scientific hotspot on the planet Vulcan.
