The '''''Adamant'' class''' was a [[Tellarite]] [[starship]] type, a [[fighter]] class in [[Federation]] [[Starfleet]] and [[Tellar Space Administration]] service from the [[2410s]] [[decade]]. Vessels of this class were auxiliary craft launched from the {{class|Pralim}} [[flight-deck assault cruiser]], but were also available to any other Federation [[carrier]] classes.

==History and specifications==
Fighters of the class were produced alongside their ''Pralim''-class mothership but also sold separately by [[ship requisition officer]]s at [[Earth Spacedock]], [[Starbase 39-Sierra]], [[Deep Space Station K-7]], and [[Deep Space 9]] for 4,150 [[energy credit]]s. 

By default, these fighters were equipped with a [[phaser]] [[beam array]] and a  [[quantum torpedo]] [[torpedo launcher|launcher]]. Both weapon emplacements were forward-facing. The ship's special ability was reflective hull I. Advanced fighters were equipped with an additional aft-facing phaser beam array, and reflective hull II. The elite counterpart improved on that with reflective hull III. By default, this hull ability granted 20% resistance to energy damage, and reflected 20% of incoming energy weapon damage. It would last until the equivalent of 5,000 energy damage had been suffered. 

When launched from a Federation carrier, three level-61 ''Adamant'' fighters could be launched simultaneously, for a total of six fighters per [[hangar]]. It took forty seconds to launch a wing of fighters. ''Adamant'' fighters had a range of 15,000 [[kilometer]]s from their mothership.  

Visually, the ''Adamant'' fighter resembled their ''Pralim'' mothership but appeared minituarised. Their [[hull]] color was green.

==Servie history==
The ''Adamant'' class was developed by the Tellarites for the [[Alpha Quadrant Alliance]] in [[2410]]. Each of the three pre-eminent AQA states received an Allied flight-deck [[assault cruiser]], with associated fighters, from one of their members. Conversely, the [[Suliban]] contributed {{class|Veil}} fighters to the [[Romulan Republic]], and the [[Orion]]s equipped their {{class|Blackguard}} carrier with {{class|Cutpurse}} fighters.
