NOTE: The USS Reciprocity is a covert operations vessel used by Star Fleet Intelligence and Special Operations.

Lineage

The USS Reciprocity is the first Star Fleet vessel to carry the name. The word reciprocity, in Federation Standard, is a noun which means "the practice of exchanging things with others for mutual benefit, especially privileges granted by one country or organization to another".

Current: USS Reciprocity, ES-17413
Vessel Class: Cicero Class (Apparition Sub-class)

Vessel Dedication Quote

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." - Thomas Payne

Commanding Officers

Commander Allen McKinney (21709.04 - Present)

Modifications

The USS Reciprocity has been given a covert operations profile, as opposed to the support profile that an ES class normally has. Due to this the ship has been fitted with a slightly oversized warp core to power ablative armor and a stealth field similar to that used on the USS Columbia. When this field is in play, the ship is harder to target and detect on sensors, and is visually cloaked. This field uses the ship's primary shield emitters and reduces shield power by 40% when in use.

Designed by SFSOCOM engineers, the device is a modified version of the stealth technology tested on the USS Columbia’s Type 9X Shuttlecraft. The original technology featured light-bending abilities that made the shuttlecraft invisible to the naked eye as well as sensor interference technology that allowed it to mimic the conditions that produce sensor glitches and ghosts on the equipment of most known governments and manufacturers. It did not fully hide itself, however, in accordance with the Treaty of Algeron. After the destruction of Bajor and several key Federation facilities by an unknown and potentially new enemy, the decision was made to upgrade the tech. The sensor interference technology was replaced by a more advanced version that effectively hid its target from detection by all known sensor systems. The Type 1X Stealth Device, as it is officially known, is highly classified and cannot be engaged in the presence of other vessels.

The powerplant of the Reciprocity is a triple core, comprised of a standard warp core, mated to a quantum singularity similar to that used in Romulan vessels, mated to an intertemporal generator which actually generates power by tapping into the space-time continuum directly. This last is only used when the ship is cloaked or requires maximum power, and it's long-term environmental effects have not been verified. The powerplant combination takes up nearly 1/3 of the ship's mass and volume, extending into what was formerly the aft storage room.

The Reciprocity features advanced sensor and computer technology, most of which is still somewhat experimental, as well as ablative armor, deviating from the standard configuration of an escort and in line with its operational sphere.

Additionally to reduce the impact of any sort of systems-draining field effects, the Reciprocity has extensive manual backups on all major control systems; and rather than relying on the standard actuated doors uses manually sliding doors for most doorways. The two blast doors are operated on a hydraulic system, and have both automatic and manual controls. They are located at the entrance to Main Engineering and at the entrance to the main forward corridor from the Common Room.

USS Reciprocity's warp field emitters have been enhanced to increase cruise and maximum speeds. The ship’s 13 micro-quantum torpedoes and launcher are stored in an inaccessible space meaning that they may not be modified during flight without EVA.

Equipment

All Star Fleet standard plus equipment listed on the Intelligence Equipment page, plus

Armor/Defense

Infiltration Suits - This is an undersuit, which is worn over undergarments and under normal clothing. It encompasses the torso and is sleeveless and legless. By utilizing a small power pack, it emits a signal which can: A) Alter the biosignature of the wearer, allowing them to appear on non-visual sensors as something other than what they are; B) Negate the biosignature of the wearer allowing them to be 'invisible' to non-visual sensors; C) Cause the individual on sensors to appear to be lifeless or dead.

These are the three classes of suits, and must be programmed prior to donning them. Each suit is designed for a specific purpose above and may not be used for the other purposes, and multiple suits may not be worn. They are designated as "IS-A", "IS-B", and "IS-C" respectively.

Enhanced Body Armor - These experimental suits of body armor are used to enhance the inherent perception, reaction, endurance, and strength of the wearer. They are bulky and metallic in nature, and are similar in appearance to heavy armor used by the Marine Corps. The armor is self-contained and has its own environment similar to an EV suit. It enhances the abilities of the user to varying degrees depending upon their training and skill with the suit, however it takes time to learn and often there are accidents with users who are unprepared for the level of enhancement offered. Maximum enhancements recorded on a human have been: perceptive (visual, audio, etc) 73%; reactive 123%; endurance 325%; strength, 400%. Those are increases over normal. The suits also contain microphasers in the forearms, jet boots, and a limited defensive shield generator. Movement can be awkward in confined spaces, especially for users unaccustomed to the suits.

Personal Shield Generator - This device can be placed in a pocket or attached to a belt, and will provide a limited protective forcefield for a short period of time.

Weapons

Microgrenades - Similar to photon grenades but approximately 2.5cm in diameter, these devices can be more easily carried and concealed than standard grenades, however they have significantly less yield.

Gadgets

Hush Field - This small device will create a sphere of silence around the user. The sphere is scalable from a few centimeters to about a dozen meters.

Visual Implants - These temporary implants, much like ancient contact lenses, can give the wearer enhanced darkvision, infrared, or visual zooming. They work for approximately 12 hours and then dissolve into the body.

Medical

StimPak - This is a combination stimulant, pain killer using standard medications.

RadPak - This is a radiation treatment combined with an anti-radiation medicine.
