The Kestrel-class starship was a class of assault ship employed by the Romulan Star Empire that was operational in the 24th century.
Technical data
The Kestrel was a type of troop transport designed to carry centurions into battle. They possessed minimal armaments, making them easy prey for enemy warships, and required support from other ships within the fleet. These ships were tasked with boarding operations on enemy starships and space stations whose deflector shields had been brought down, which allowed the use of transporters to board and capture the target. (ST video game: Armada II)
Considering that the Romulans regularly employed Reman shocktroops, it is possible that the Kestrel was also designed to carry such a payload of infantry into battle.
