The Cerberus class was a Federation starship class, a tier 5 advanced escort type in service in the 25th century. The Cerberus was derived from the 2370s Prometheus-class design. Due to their modular nature, components such as saucer, hull, warp nacelles and nacelle pylons were interchangeable between the Cerberus and its sister classes. The ship class was also in use by the Terran Empire in the mirror universe. In 2409, Federation Starfleet gained access to some of these counterparts through the Lobi Crystal Consortium. (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
Specifications
Livery
In the 25th century, the design of the Cerberus-class advanced escort allowed its commanding officer to choose from different designs of livery, which could be modified further at starbases. These options were designated Type 1-5 and Veteran. (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
Furthermore, the installation of deflector shields from specific factions modified the hull appearance, including shields from the Reman Resistance, the Breen Confederacy and the Dominion. (STO missions: "Coliseum", "Cold Storage", "Boldly They Rode")
