2.4.7 Romulan Birds of Prey

Birds of Prey are small, fast ships used for short-range reconnaissance missions, raids, and escort duties. Though not heavily armed, they have powerful cloaks, and their pilots are skilled at decloaking, attacking, and then recloaking and fleeing before an enemy can react.

In light of the Birds of Prey’s excellent record in recent decades, in the 2360s the Star Navy began a program to build two classes of a new type, the Swift Bird of Prey. With better weapons and engines, these ships will be faster and deadlier than any Bird of Prey to date. The Birds of Prey’s performance during the Dominion War, in which they accounted for 37% more casualties than they suffered, validates this decision and has led the Star Navy to allocate additional resources to these programs to ensure they are completed by their 2377 (Mithras class) and 2379 (Vithrel class) scheduled dates.
