The Negh'Var-class warship

Tactical

The Negh'Var is primarily unique from the previous cruisers in its lineage such as the K't'inga and Vor'cha-classes by the two massive disruptor cannons on the underbelly of the ship. Tactically, these set the Negh'Var apart as being seige weapons against stationary targets be it planetary or starbases. The Negh'Var was the first Klingon ship to have such weaponry built into the design at inception, whereas previous classes would need to have such weaponry specially mounted for a specific mission profile.

Additionally, the Negh'Var includes a hangar deck at the top of the ship in a pod-like structure which allows it to carry several Kivra-class shuttles and multiple wings of To'Duj-class fighters. Tactically, this allows the Negh'Var to serve as a command and control warship on the field of battle coordinating efforts not only as a massive deployment platform itself but also with any escort ships in its battlegroup.
