The predecessor to the Galor class, the Dal has remained an effective explorer and defense platform since it’s inception. Although lighter than the Galor, the vessel is physically larger and roomier, making it a popular assignment for naval personnel.

The Dal and Galor have never been in direct competition, the Dal intended as a lighter and less expensive alternative to the more popular Galor. However, by 2320, production of the Dal was halted in favor of the more capable Galor class.

Although some hulls are considered quite aged, 107 Type-3s remain in active service. 20 Type-1s are in reserve fleets. 4 Type-1s, 3 Type-2s and 13 Type-3s have been destroyed. 2 Type-3s have been captured. 1 Type1 and 2 Type-3s are listed as missing. 2 Type-1s, 1 Type-2 and 18 Type-3s have been scrapped. 10 Type-1s have been sold to civilian concerns.
