D'Deridex Class

The D'deridex-class is largest known Romulan warship in the Romulan Fleet. It is significantly larger than the Galaxy-Class starships in volume, but slightly less massive. Oddly the D'deridex is also somewhat less maneuverable than a Galaxy. Starfleet has yet to come up with an adequate explanation for this seeming contradiction. The D'deridex has greater firepower than a Galaxy but a somewhat more limited arc of fire. Like all Romulan ships it is powered by an artificial micro-singularity. It is this unusual power source is what gives all Romulan Warbirds their unique 'hollowed out' look.
