The vaguely sharklike design was the inspiration for its name (they were originally to be called the QUASAR-class), and its curvature takes advantage of the curves of a warp field, allowing it to establish a smaller, tighter field, thus getting more speed with less power expenditures. Capable of planetfall, and newer than the INTREPID-class spaceframe, the ORCA-class spaceframe is expected to join it as the backbone of StarFleet's frigate forces. The ORCA-class starships are to be named for sea creatures, and will be given registry numbers in the 83700 series.
