	The FSS ''Erlebar'' was constructed at the massive [[Kosi Dareyya Shipyards]] orbiting within the rings of [[Molgi]] in the [[Quantis System]], and officially launched from there in late 118 AC alongside the FSS ''~~Neitzel~~'' and ''Pauli''. Taking its name from the legendary explorer Lrisi Erlebar of ancient [[Erdath]], the ship would live up to its namesake in the coming years.

The FSS ''Erlebar'' was constructed at the massive [[Kosi Dareyya Shipyards]] orbiting within the rings of [[Molgi]] in the [[Quantis System]], and officially launched from there in late 118 AC alongside the FSS ''Nizal'' and ''Pauli''.

	Among the first Kalar-class ships being launched that year, ''Erlebar'' was launched as the testbed for a new form of warp travel, theorized to increase speeds upwards of 1,700 ''c''. Dubbed "The Great Experiment", this form of warp drive was conceived during the latter days of the [[Falacian Cold War]] as a substantial improvement upon the pre-conflict warp drives. The first six months or so of its initial trial runs were spent ironing out the kinks in the new drive's effects, modifications which took the form of the addition of variable geometry nacelle pylons during the first refit. These modifications carried over to the production run of the class, including the renowned [[Kareland]].

A science and exploration starship first and formost, the ''Erlebar'' took part in a great many historical events, including first extended contact with the [[Obilehem Intelligence]] in 124, negotiations with the [[First Federation]] for historical records, several major engagements in the [[War of the Broken Bow]] including the liberation of [[Teralla]], and the pivotal [[Battle of the Colony]]. It was also initially launched as a testbed for a variety of new technologies including an experimental new form of warp drive. The ''Erlebar'' was launched under the command of Hiraki Talas, and was later commanded by distinguished [[Kesstra]] captain Osusan il-Anri il-Rana until his death in 143. Captain [[Airilli]] after taking his place led the ship into the climactic [[Battle of the Colony]] at the close of the [[War of the Broken Bow]].

==History==
===Construction and Launch===
The FSS ''Erlebar'' was constructed at the massive [[Kosi Dareyya Shipyards]] orbiting within the rings of [[Molgi]] in the [[Quantis System]], and officially launched from there in late 118 AC alongside the FSS ''Neitzel'' and ''Pauli''. Taking its name from the legendary explorer Lrisi Erlebar of ancient [[Erdath]], the ship would live up to its namesake in the coming years. Its first captain [[Hiraki Talas]] of [[Varbudos]] had lofty hopes of uncovering infinities of new knowledge about the space in which the Federation lived, and exploring strange new worlds beyond.

Among the first Kalar-class ships being launched that year, ''Erlebar'' was launched as the testbed for a new form of warp travel, theorized to increase speeds upwards of 1,700 ''c''. Dubbed "The Great Experiment", this form of warp drive was conceived during the latter days of the [[Falacian Cold War]] as a substantial improvement upon the pre-conflict warp drives. The first six months or so of its initial trial runs were spent ironing out the kinks in the new drive's effects, modifications which took the form of the addition of variable geometry nacelle pylons during the first refit. These modifications carried over to the production run of the class, including the renowned [[Kareland]].

Designed under radically new principles of propulsion, the ''Erlebar'' had the potential for breaking the superluminal speed record of 840 ''c'' and becoming the fastest starship in the [[Vernarcan Federation]] yet, but despite doing so on its first flight it refrained from going directly to its theoretical top speed for the first six months. These trial runs were extremely successful, and the updated designs were quickly rolled out across the fleet's existing ships and implemented in those still under construction.

After its speed and stress testing shakedown cruise, ''Erlebar'' 's full scientific suite was added in a quick refit at [[San Ska Re Shipyards]] over [[Verri]], giving it a suite of powerful sensors across the hull as well as several other optimizations based on the results of those tests. The previously empty Science Pod was filled up with all the requisite equipment normally found there, and the starship set off on its first mission in the line of duty.

==Technical data==
Similar to its more famous sister ship ''[[Kareland]]'', the FSS ''Erlebar'' was built and launched as a fairly standard Kalar-class starship less than a year before ''Kareland'' left the slip. In terms of physical arrangement, the hull's fifteen decks are split between a ~150 meter long arrowhead module, which can separate and operate independently in a pinch, a long, slender multipurpose midsection, and the engineering module in the rear.

The ''Erlebar'' 's structure is based in part upon the principle of variable geometry, with multiple possible configurations. The three flight pods attached to the slender midsection are a key example of this, as they are used as large landing bays and to launch auxiliary craft in the correct direction at high speeds when deployed. The flight pods can be retracted into the hull. Four nacelles extend from the sides of the aft engineering hull on slim pylons, the angle and length of which can be adjusted rapidly to maintain the most efficient warp field.

The ''Kalar''-class heralded a decrease in the average size of ships launched by the Federation, at around half the length of the larger ''Providence'' and ''Riddle'' classes of the Falacian Cold War era. This came with an increase in the numbers of ships produced, more than compensating for their smaller individual sizes alongside the increased technological development of the time.
===Modifications for the [[Battle of the Colony]]===
After the return of the [[FSS Kareland|FSS ''Kareland'']], many ''Kalar''-class starships were outfitted with the new technology that ''Kareland'' returned with. Taking advantage of the principle demonstrated by ''Kareland'' during the Battle of Chundou in the [[Vilari Cluster]], ''Erlebar'' was paired with the ''Valiant''-class [[FSS Neitzel]] during the Battle of the Colony for organized use of the jump tactic to remove enemy ships from the board. Like every other ship participating in the battle, ''Erlebar'' was outfitted with a Void spatial projector replicated from ''Kareland'' 's logs, allowing it to enter the [[Void Underspace]] and reach the Colony within a reasonable timeframe. Zero-Point Torpedoes were also installed in the weapons systems alongside improved shielding pilfered from the Kormin Empire.
