The Castroi class[1] a 22nd century Xindi spacecraft type, a scout ship in Xindi-Insectoid service in the 2150s decade. (ENT episode: "Hatchery")
In the 2410s, Castroi-class fighters were deployed from the hangars of Olaen-class heavy strike wing escorts. (STO - The Iconian War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
History[]
A Castroi-class scout ship encountered the United Earth Starfleet starship Enterprise NX-01 over an uninhabited planet in the Delphic Expanse on 8 January 2154. When the scoutship tried to flee it was destroyed by Enterprise with photonic torpedoes. The crew complement of three perished. (ENT episode: "Hatchery")
When remainder of the Xindi Council decided to end their isolationist stance within the Federation, Castroi-class fighters became available as combat fighters for all Xindi carriers. They were part of the standard hangar outfit of Olaen-class heavy escort carriers but could also be operated from Xindi-Primate Ateleth-class dreadnoughts and Xindi-Aquatic Narcine-class starships.
Technical data[]
22nd century[]
In the 2150s, the Castroi-class scout ships were warp-capable vessels with a crew of three. They were no match for a Human NX-class starship. (ENT episode: "Hatchery")
25th century[]
In June 2410, the entirety of the Xindi Council made their ships available to Starfleet, the Klingon Defense Force and the Romulan Republican Force as part of the Xindi Defense Pact. Castroi-class fighters were available in three visually indistinguishable varieties standard, advanced and elite. These fighters were armed with one plasmatic biomatter beam array and quantum torpedo launcher at the fore, although the advanced fighter fielded an additional plasmatic biomatter turret at the aft. A full single squadron contained four fighters. (STO video game: Delta Rising Xindi Terrestrial Lockbox)
