The Heavy Cruiser is a Commander (Tier 3) level Federation Cruiser. This is one of the few Starfleet ship designs to have more than two nacelles. These cruisers are much more capable than a normal Cruiser.

Variants

Cheyenne class

Cheyenne class

One of only three canon starship designs to feature four nacelles. Cheyenne class ships fought in the Battle of Wolf 359 and the appearance in TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II" remains the only time that this design has been seen on screen. The Cheyenne shares a design lineage with the Galaxy class starship.

Dakota class

Dakota class

The Dakota class is described as a day-to-day workhorse, taking on many types of operations for Starfleet. The design is an off shoot of the Cheyenne class but sports a much narrower saucer section.

Stargazer class

Stargazer class

The Stargazer class was named in honor of the original Constellation class USS Stargazer (NCC-2893). This class design was put into production after the Dominion War to replace lost ships during that time. The design is similar to the Dakota class but has a much more modern hull and nacelles.
