The design history of the D-17<\/em> flows from the designs of other well-loved warship designs of the Imperial Fleet, and the lines of this ship are later taken to larger scale in the Vor’cha Class cruisers many years later.<\/p>\n

The D-117<\/em> is a little larger than the D-7<\/em> and meant to take over the functions of the D-23<\/em> as a battle-able command cruiser. While the D-10 already serves in this regard to some degree as a flagship, any captain of sufficient note might obtain command of a D-10<\/em> (through family connections or political intrigue). The D-17<\/em> is designed to be a Squadron Leader, and as such, command of one of these vessels is a mark of distinction and leadership.<\/p>\n

Fully battle-capable and having the ability to cloak, the D-117<\/em> is not a ship given to administrative commanders or luxury-conscious Thought Admirals. Command of one of these new vessels is a mark of distinction, such command only going to recognized leaders in the fleet. Klingon Imperial Command commissioned the D-117<\/em> as a Squadron Leader. The vessel’s design was heavily influenced by the maneuverability of the D-7<\/em>, a preference expressed by Field Commander’s who wished for a more capable vessel than those in the squadrons that they were commanding at the time.<\/p>\n

The <D-117A<\/em> was introduced in 2284. Mounting the KWF-2 warp engines, the KIF-2 impulse engine, the efficient KSL trinary shield system and the longer range KD-17 and KP-6 weapons, the D-117A<\/em> was a formidable addition to any battle squadron. The D-17A<\/em> was produced at the Taamar and Mustaka Facilities. Of the ten D-117As<\/em> produced, nine have been converted to B models, and one has been reported missing along the Demon’s Rift <\/p>\n

In 2294 the D-117B<\/em> was introduced. The KSL shields were replaced with the KSP shield system. Other modifications include the addition of two banks of KD-8 disruptors. With these changes in place, the D-117<\/em> has become extremely popular with frontline commanders. Two D-117Bs<\/em> have been produced at Taamar and, to date, 9 of the A models have been converted at Mustaka. With the introduction of the B model, production of the A model was halted. The B model was expected to be produced at an increasing rate. However, the destruction of Praxis ended production of the D-117<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The remining 11 D-117Bs<\/em> continued to serve until 2324 when the last ship was damaged and scrapped. Of the 11 D-117Bs<\/em> fielded, 2 are still in Reserve Fleets, 1 was destroyed, 2 are listed as missing, 4 were sold and 2 are in service to ranking families in the empire. <\/p>\n

The vessel takes its name form the Klingon loDnI’ batlh<\/em> which translate to “Brother with Honor<\/em>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
