NOTES:
Known Sphere Of Operation: Frontier zones
Data Reliability: D
Major Data Source: Cardassian Sector Intelligence
One of the largest exploration vessels fielded by the Cardassians, the Exar was intended to be a major combat platform when envisioned during the Dominion War. The conclusion of that conflict and significant losses for the Cardassian fleet forced designers to pivot and re-engineer the Exar as an explorer.
The Exar class is a major undertaking for the Cardassians, with only 28 completed to date. The vessel’s size and capabilities have made it a successful frontier vessel,allowing the exploration and mapping of uninhabited star systems and phenomenon across the Cardassian frontier.
To date, 1 Exar Type-3 has been destroyed and 1 Type-1 has been scrapped. All three variants are still in production, although at reduced rates.
