Steam Lore
-- [INCOMING TRANSMISSION]-- Its here! The Freedom Class cruiser! The Freedom class cruiser was developed by the DSY in the year 2082. After realizing a new ship was needed to replace the aging fleet of Independance class cruisers, the NEG contracted the DSY to design and produce a new type of ship. The Freedom class was the result.

-- [BRIEF HISTORY ON THE INDEPENDANCE CLASS/FREEDOM REFIT]-- The Independance class cruiser was a cruiser developed by the UNSC prior to the Siege of Utopia. The American government decided to launch the UNSC because they were disappointed with the Terran Benevolance League. Initially three ships were made. The UNSC Independance, the UNSC Justice and the UNSC America, but more ships were constructed during a war with the DNC remnants from 2077 to 2078. After the death of the DNC Supreme Leader at the Earth Incident, the DNC TBL and UNSC combined into one government. By this time at least 15 ships existed. The ships were used in a war against a being known as Marduk. After Marduk was killed, the war ended and the Independance class cruiser's were put into repair or exploration duty. Not wanting another war to break out, the NEG commisioned the DSY (Dog Shipyards) in 2081 to construct a new type of ship to replace the aging fleets of Independance class cruisers. The first three ships to come off the line were the Freedom, the Sao Paulo and the Defiant (later renamed Galapogos II). The three ships later became part of the home fleet in the Human-Klang war in 2083.
