Flight II: In 2553, a major delay in production occurred following the revelation that there were significant issues with the layout of the original six ships that made them particularly prone to fires.

From the start, the high-tech ships were desired assignments for navy crewmen who correctly identified that the then-lavish ships would play a major role in coming events. The first six Idrises laid down were all commissioned by May 2552 and began service tryouts then extended patrol assignments later that year. The initial factory constructed by Aegis to produce the ships included six berths that would work around the clock. The launch was attended by Imperator Ivar Messer, who presented a famous speech seen today as a prelude to him taking increased control of the UEE in the name of public safety.

Flight I: In 2551, the first and the lead ship of the Idris frigate, UEEN Idris was commissioned in a ceremony at Aegis' newly constructed Idris System factory complex.Highlighting the suggested importance of the project, the first ship was named after the recent victory at Idris IV, already being mythologized as a foundational element of the new Empire. Expansion from the original corvette to the frigate was a rare decision that was in the best interests of all persons involved. Messer aligned planners quickly identified the project as important to establishing their own power base and they worked carefully with Aegis and other contractors, particularly Aim-Krug, responsible for the railgun installed on the first flight of ships, to expand the scope of design to define a model for the modern warship. Contradictory to the observers, the move from the proposed corvette to the frigate was painless and seemingly natural for those involved, with the design specifications being revised multiple times as the reality of the post-war Empire became increasingly clear. The ship was completely different from the initial specification of a corvette: a massive frigate-class spacecraft massing several times the original proposal, mounting an enormous railgun, and carrying a fully functional flight deck capable of supporting multiple classes of fighters and bombers. Prototype: In 2549, the prototype of the ship began its space trials after three years of development pledged with typical bureaucratic confusion to outside observers.The prime contractor role (covering both design and manufacturing) for the new ship was assigned to Aegis Dynamics via no-bid contract with a number of component and support contracts going to smaller, now defunct concerns. These corvettes would be built more affordably and in greater numbers than current ships-of-the-line and would be rapidly deployed to help patrol the burgeoning United Empire of Earth (UEE).

The specifics of what would be the Idris called for the development of an 85-meter, corvette-class spacecraft that could dock a pair of patrol fighters. These plans imagined a peacetime UPE with significantly expanded borders, both with territory annexed from the Tevarin and the increased colonization of more distant planets. The frigate was part of a range of forward-thinking plans that attempt to reform Earth's military after the First Tevarin War. Beginning: In 2545, the initial specification of the ship that would become Idris was established by the United Planets of Earth's (UPE) Weapons Development Bureau (WepDev).
