Perikian class

The Perikian-class was a type of sublight interceptors deployed by the Bajoran Militia in the 24th century. Constructed on Bajor, these interceptors were able to hold over 200+ troops and were equipped with at least six phased polaron beam weapons.

The interceptors were designed to operate in a planet's atmosphere as well as being operable in space, meaning that they were the primary vessels which were used to protect Bajor from unwelcome vessels. Because of their benefits, the Maquis also utilized Perikian-class vessels to protect they colonial interests. 

In 2370, several Perikian-class vessels were acquired by the Alliance for Global Unity. Two of these vessels were used to pursue a Bajoran raider, that was being piloted by Major Kira Nerys and Lieutenant Jadzia Dax, and prevent them from reaching the Bajoran Provisional Government to reveal the truth behind the Alliance's coup d'etat.

In 2375, several Perikian-class vessels participated in the blockade surrounding Derna, with the aim of preventing the Romulans from arming the moon with plasma torpedoes.
