The Vor'Cha-class battlecruiser is a larger, powerful warship that has formed the core of the Klingon Defense Force Fleet since the middle of the 24th century. A natural evolution of the indefatigable K'Tinga-class battlecruiser, this class entered service in the late 2360s and has been built in steadily increasing numbers in the intervening decades. These stalwart vessels are more than a match one-on-one for both Federation and Romulan medium-sized vessels, and they are used to support ground invasions, perform space superiority missions, and find new worlds for explotation.

Science and Exploration

Vor'cha-class vessels are fully capable of performing detailed planetary surveys, but their labs and sensors are optimized for either identifying a planet's natural resources that would be useful for the Klingon economy or pinpointing the weaknesses in a society's military and defensive apparatus. Vessels like this aren't sent on "exploration" missions, per se, but they are a good size for "target identification" and "resource exploitation" patrols.

Diplomacy

First deployed as the Klingon Chancellor's flagship, Vor'cha-class vessels are as capable as any other large Klingon vessels of hosting dignitaries and providing spaces for ceremonial and diplomatic talks. In the Klingon context, this means that their armaments and aggressive design features are a massive bonus to their diplomatic capabilities, as the Klingon diplomatic philosophy is to always negotiate from a position of strength. These ships have several guest suites, a VIP suite for generals and other officials, and a dedicated ceremonial space that can be used as a throne room or banquet hall. Non-Klingons would find the accommodations on these ships spartan at best, though.
