Notes: The ro''Iw class strike cruiser is a lighter version of the vor'cha class attack cruiser, capable of delivering a substantial punch in a lighter space frame than its older cousin. As the defensive and offensive capabilities of the Klingons' battle fleets continues to rise, the ro''Iw class will surely be an essential part of fulfilling those needs.
