NOTES
The smallest ship in the Federation fleet, work bees were introduced in 2268 to help in
the construction of new starships.

Highly modular in design, the work bees can be fitted to perform almost any work
necessary in the construction of a starship, and can effortlessly move large bulkheads into
position.

The newer model of the work bee (seen on this page) was introduced in 2398, and while
its specifications are virtually identical to the original work bee, the newer model is
marginally more streamlined and efficient.
