The Falchion class warbird was a class of dreadnought fielded by the Romulan Republican Force in the early 25th century.
History
In 2409 several Romulan Republic Falchion-class vessels were captured by the Tholian Assembly and taken to bases in the Azure Nebula. Allied forces effected a rescue.
Several other Falchion-class warbirds were assigned to Dyson Joint Command to perform various patrol duties in the Solanae Dyson sphere.
Technical data
The Falchion-class was a sister design of the Tulwar class warbird, both of which were variants of the infamous Scimitar class. The Falchion-class was more defensively oriented than its relatives and was fitted with redundant deflector shield systems and larger bussard collectors. It possessed a standard Romulan cloaking device, and could be fitted with a thalaron generator, though this was not standard equipment.
Like its sister designs the Falchion-class was also a carrier and could deploy Scorpion class fighters or telepresence drone ships to aid it in battle.
