IKS Orantho
Class:	B'rel-class
Affiliation:	Klingon Defense Force
Status:	Destroyed (2376)

The IKS Orantho was a B'rel-class Klingon bird-of-prey in service in the late 24th century.

In 2375, the Orantho was one of five ships were assigned to General Martok's strike force against Trelka V. (DS9 episode: "Once More Unto the Breach")

Among the crew serving on the ship during the attack was the brother of Sirella, who was the helmsman.

In 2376, the Orantho remained loyal to Martok after Gothmara and Morjod's coup d'état. Sirella later boarded the ship and assumed command for the coming attack on Boreth. During the battle, the Orantho came to the aid of the IKS Ch'Tang, Martok's ship, which was under heavy fire from the IKS Chak'ta. The Orantho drew the enemies fire, before ramming one of the enemy cruisers, destroying itself and its target. (DS9 novel: The Left Hand of Destiny)
