Template:ShipInfobox The Scorpion-class vessels were small attack fighters used aboard the Reman warbird Scimitar in 2379. They had been introduced by 2375 by the Romulan Star Empire for use for their Reman troops.
Several Scorpion class fighters were destroyed by the Dominion during the attack on Goloroth. (ST - Tales of the Dominion War short story: "Twilight's Wrath")
When Captain Jean-Luc Picard was captured and taken aboard the Scimitar by Praetor Shinzon, the captain and Data used a Scorpion-class vessel to escape. Although he initially found the craft difficult to maneuver, Picard eventually managed to drive the vessel through a window located in Shinzon's reception chamber and escape into space, where the craft was beamed aboard the Enterprise-E.
The Scimitar's shuttlebay, where other Scorpion-class vessels were stored, was later destroyed when the Enterprise and the Scimitar collided. (TNG movie & novelization: Star Trek Nemesis)
