Akula Class - U.S.S. Akula

Description
For my next Bridge Commander mod, I give you the Akula-class. The Akula is a TMP-era destroyer and escort ship and may be the predecessor to the TNG-era Challenger-class. The ship's design was first seen in Star Trek: Starfleet Command in which it was classified as a Light Cruiser. The ship was also seen in Star Trek: Legacy where it was called the Apollo-class (in error).
The ship is quick and manoevurable, and is able to overpower the slower ships of the era such as Battleships and Heavy Cruisers. Although there is a weapons blind spot on the aft quater which must be securely guarded.
