The Concordia-Class Fleet Carrier was a class of carrier that served with the Terran Confederation. It served as the mainstay carrier of the Confederation fleet for much of the 2600s.
The Concordia-Class Fleet Carriers have seen extensive service with the Terran Confederation and faithfully served humanity for almost the whole of the Terran-Kilrathi War. First introduced in the 2600s, the Concordia was the standard fleet carrier for much of the Terran Confederation Navy for decades, and was one of the most numerous carrier classes in service.
Concordias have served as the flagships for numerous Terran battle fleets and thus have seen extensive action throughout the Terran-Kilrathi War. At least one took part in the Battle of McAuliffe and many fought in the defense of Earth during the Battle of Earth in 2668. During this battle, several Concordias were destroyed or damaged in the fighting. Concordias undertook numerous fleet actions against Kilrathi forces throughout the entire war.
Concordias remained in active service even after the war's conclusion in 2669. At least two Concordias, the TCS Lexington and the TCS Princeton saw action against the Union of Border Worlds during the conspiracy of the Black Lance to remilitarize the Confederation in 2673. Both vessels were eventually commandeered by the Black Lance for their campaign but were ultimately neutralized by Border Worlds forces.
By 2681, the Concordias have been superseded by larger, superior fleet carriers, so it is likely that few, if any, are still in active service.
