U.S.S Viper

 The USS Viper was designed and built at the Shipyards on planet Viperon in 2371 as a supplement to the current battle fleets. Instead of focusing on scientific or exploration when designing this ship, it was overpowered and loaded with weapons, making it the first full-time battleship. The Vipers engines have been overpowered, allowing it to travel at incredible speeds, considering its size. It is very common for prototype technology to be tested on the Viper, which has proven to be a successful test platform multiple times in the past.

Since its creation, the Viper has played a key part in many confrontations. The USS Viper currently serves as a strike vessel to quickly resolve foreign skirmishes In the Union Guard Armada .
