Echentis class

The Echentis class was a Vorgon starship class, a frigate in service from the early 25th century. Ships of the class did not operate on their own, and were stored in the hangar bays of carriers. 

History and specifications
In 2411, following the emergence of the Lukari and a brief escalation of the Temporal Cold War, the Lobi Crystal Consortium acquired Ryn'kodan-class carriers from the Vorgons. For a prize of 1,000 prize vouchers, these starships were offered to commanding officers of the Alpha Quadrant Alliance during the Lohlunat Festival on Risa. A carrier was able to launch a total of four Echentis-class frigates from its two hangar bays.

In their standard configurations, Vorgon Echentis frigates wee armed with one tetryon dual beam bank, two tetryon beam arrays (fore and aft), and one aft chroniton mine launcher. Its defensive systems included deflector shields, dispersal pattern alpha I, and suppression barrage I. Elite versions of the Echentis frigates featured better rated defense systems.
