The Soyuz-class was a type of starship in service to the Federation in the mid-23rd century, until being removed from service in 2288.
The USS Bozeman, under the command of Captain Morgan Bateson, was a Soyuz-class vessel. (TNG episode: "Cause and Effect")
When all of the Soyuz class were being retired from service, several of their components were removed and installed on other ships. The parts taken from them included phaser strips and subspace transceivers. (DS9 reference: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual)
The Soyuz-class vessels "could barely exceed warp six," according to Morgan Bateson. (TNG comic: "Out of Time")
- It is unclear from the context if this was literally a limit of the Soyuzes, whether Bateson was speaking facetiously, or both.
- The Soyuz model seen on screen was a redesign of the Miranda-class vessel. However, since the Miranda-class was seen in use well into the 24th century, it may be speculated that it, in fact, was a redesign of the Soyuz. Some parts of the Enterprise Phase II Model were used to create the Bozeman , a clear visible part is the different Bridge Module.
