Defiant Class

The Defiant class starships were initially conceived as escort vessels, however, when equipped with an impressive array of defensive and offensive weapons, this class of vessel proved its worth in the Federation defense of Sector 001 during the Borg invasion. Since that time this ship has become a formidable escort vessel on the front lines of the Federation's effort to bring peace to the galaxy. Perhaps the most famous ship of the line is the U.S.S. Defiant NX-74205.
