[edit] History and Features
This class of starships were perhaps one of the latest and newest forms of attack craft employed by the Klingon Empire in response to the Federation's aligned with Cardassia during the Klingon invasion of their territory. Facing threat from newer more advanced Starfleet vessels such as the Akira-class and Achilles-class starships, the Klingons realised that they needed a powerful heavy cruiser of their own. The K'vort Cha was the result which carried newer, more powerful disruptor arrays that were capable of allowing it dominance in one-on-one combat against enemy starships. They disruptor cannons also carried a phasic shield inhibitor that allowed it to penetrate shields and even the hulls of enemy starships. These ships were favoured by aggressive captains that wished to a 'lone wolf' style of combat.
The K'vort Cha-class were armed with 2 torpedoes and 4 disruptor cannons. (DS9 video game: Dominion Wars)
