"The Tritium class has the dubious distinction of being the worst
major ship ever built by the UFP. Insurmountable design flaws surfaced
during its validation phase, and though six Tritium class ships were
constructed in a vain attempt to overcome glaring shortcomings, the
Federation finally cut its losses and cancelled the series. As a costly
reminder to future generations, the Tritium may also be viewed as the
Spaceflight museum on Memory Alpha."
The Modified Tritium has lengthened warp nacelles and shorter booster
cones in an attempt to improve warp dynamics, it made no difference to the
problems of the design.
