It had a maximum warp speed 8.5 (old Cochrane scale), though it is possible to bring the ship speed to Warp 9.5. This is one of those class which participate in the computer system conversion, which converts duotronic systems to the new isolinear circuitry, before passing down to all of the 23rd century ships.
