The Shadow class was one of the largest battleships ever fielded by the Cardassians and was intended to be an entire fleet when first envisioned. However, as the war progressed, the production of this class was halted in favor of smaller and lighter vessels. As the Dominion took more control of Cardassian facilities, a second Shadow was cancelled and eventually scrapped before ever being completed. During the conflict, the Shadow proved as dangerous as any front line ships and in fact survived the war despite significant attempts by the allies to destroy it. While the Shadow is still in service, it’s large size and significant crew have proven a burden to the Cardassians. Unsubstantiated reports indicate that the Cardassians may be planning on a Type-2 version in the near future.
