Klingon Ship Names

Post by Antarian »

Attached please find a comprehensive list of TOS era ship design names.

Please note that in the proper canon era of TOS, Klingon ships were rightly prefaced by 'IKV', for Imperial Klingon Vessel, unlike the travesty of later shows such NG, which changed that to 'IKS'.

You can also name carriers by a similar method
carrier: Batnek, Rotok
You get the idea. :)

Thanks, and yes, I noted that the shipnames files as used in Legends fails to list the carrier as a ship type, even though that was one of the major changes for that release. I've added it in later files, but not this one.

I like to name Klingon carriers in a theme to do with swarms of stinging insects, such as:

IKV Swarm of Pestilence
IKV Horde of the Apocolypse
IKV Black Cloud of Death
IKV Swarm of Vampire Bats

ect...
