The USS T'mura was a Sovereign-class Command Cruiser in active service to Starfleet during the late 24th century.

Vanguard Command[]

The USS T'mura was launched in 2384 from Coronalis Frontier Fleet Yards and was commissioned in 2385 as part of the Vanguard Fleet, the mobile arm of Vanguard Command.

As part of Vanguard Command, the USS T'mura's capabilities included:

Type-XII phaser arrays.
Mark-XII pulse phaser cannons.
A full payload of Khronnian enhanced high-yield photon torpedoes, which were almost powerful as standard quantum torpedoes.
The capacity to launch quantum torpedoes and transphasic torpedoes, the latter only as a last resort.
A diverse and combat-modified complement of auxiliary crafts.
A 10-man Starfleet Commando Force for special away team missions and even black ops mission.

Enhanced and redundant structural integrity fields, which exponentially increased the ship's ability to maintain the integrity and shape of hulls and bulkheads against the extreme stresses caused by warp fields, weapons, and other motion.
Ablative hull armor and ablative armor plating, which rapidly dissipates the energy impacts from directed energy weapon fire and makes the ship endure massive weapons fire even after its shield have been overpowered.
Enhanced, regenerative, redundant, reinforced, multiphasic, multispectrum, unimatrix defensive shields, which protects the ship from energy weapons and torpedoes for an exponentially longer duration and makes the ship's hull capable of withstanding extremes of temperature and pressure.
Microdiffracted carbon hull coating that absorbs all visible radiation that fell upon it, making it as black as the space it moved through.
A sensor stealth system which masked the ship's warp signature and helped avoid detection during covert operations. Custom-designed warp coil insulators reduced its energy signature almost to nil. As long as radio silence was maintained, the ship could cruise unnoticed through the void.
Advanced external holographic emitters, which give the ship the ability to alter its appearance by disguising itself as another object, such as an asteroid.

Enhanced impulse engines that can attain sub-light velocities of 0.95c and faster-than-light velocities of Warp 1.2, allowing the ship to escape supernovas if the warp drive unexpectedly went offline.
An enhanced maneuvering thruster array with retro-thrusters, which exponentially increased the ship's sub-light agility despite its size.
A Khronnian enhanced warp drive that allows it to travel at a normal cruise speed of Warp 8.5 and a top sustained speeds of Warp 9.5.
A quantum slipstream drive that allows the ship to travel 300 light years in an hour, though in 10 hour bursts every 6 hours only due to the ship's configuration.

Bio-neural circuitry, which could process information more efficiently, and therefore speed up computer response time.
Advanced holodecks.
An Industrial replicator that could produce starship parts for repair and standard torpedo components for construction.
A full Long-term Holographic Program Package composed of:
- 2 Mark-III Long-term Command and Navigation Holograms (LCNH)
- 3 Mark-III Long-term Security and Tactical Holograms (LSTH); 1 Hirogen, 1 Gorn, 1 Pahkwa-thanh
- 3 Mark-III Long-term Engineering Holograms (LEH)
- 2 Mark-IX Long-term Medical Holograms (LMH)
- 2 Mark-III Long-term Health Care Holograms (LHCH)
- 2 Mark-III Long-term Science Holograms (LSH)

The USS T'mura was placed under the command of maverick starship commander Captain Sevak and attached to Task Force Belligerent, the mobile arm of Denorios Command, operating in the Alpha Quadrant and guarding the Bajoran wormhole, with headquarters and home port at Deep Space 9 II. Both Task Force Belligerent and Denorios Command were under the overall command of Rear Admiral Benjamin Sisko. The USS T'mura was designated as the secondary flagship of Task Force Belligerent, assigned to lead Strike Group Two.

During Condition Green, the USS T'mura would travel with one Saber-class Fast Frigate and one Merian-class Fast Frigate

During Condition Yellow, the USS T'mura was the flagship of Mission Group Bravo and was accompanied by the Prometheus-class Assault Cruiser USS Aeneas, one Norway-class Heavy Frigate, one Intrepid-class Light Cruiser, two Saber-class Fast Frigates, two Merian-class Fast Frigates, two Diligent-class Tactical Frigates, and two Defiant-class Tactical Frigates.

During Condition Red-1, the USS T'mura served as the flagship of Strike Group Two and was accompanied by the Luna-class Heavy Cruiser USS Neso, the Akira-class Heavy Cruiser USS Lipan, the Prometheus-class Assault Cruiser USS Aeneas, one Intrepid-class Light Cruiser, two Norway-class Heavy Frigates, four Merian-class Fast Frigates, four Saber-class Fast Frigates, four Diligent-class Tactical Frigates, and four Defiant-class Tactical Frigates.
