The
Defiant-Class ship occupies a unique position in the history of StarFleet
ship development, for it was the first ship dedicated primarily to combat. The
Defiant's low profile, compact design, ablative armor and Romulan cloaking
make it ideal for patrol duties in heavily guarded enemy space and covert operations
deep into Dominion space. The original prototype was equipped to pose a formidable
threat to Borg ships. However, hostilities with the Borg ceased and the first
prototype USS Defiant was assigned to DS9 in order to thwart any Jem'Hadar
advances.
In
typical fashion, a Defiant-Class ship readily destroys two Jem
Hadar fighters with its Pulse Phasers while on patrol near DS9.
