History:

One of the oldest Cruisers ever launched by the Cardassian Union, the Aldvarger, named for a thriving city in a scorching hot desert (at 157o), as well as for a few pioneers in early Cardassian Spaceflight, was a useful command ship, that would sometimes explore and patrol nearby systems. The vessels were highly useful against the somewhat more technologically advanced Klingon Empire, and the two Star Nations warred with each other for over thirty years. Unlike the more durable Tonga-Class Armored Cruiser, the Aldvarger-Class was unable to keep up much in advances, and was retired in 2326.

Noteworthy Vessels/Encounters: C.U.S Aldvarger; - Prototype, C.U.S Traeger; - fought off Three Klingon Destroyers and a Cruiser in Betreka Nebula Incident (2289), later destroyed in massive Base Assault of Epsilon Thoridar (2314), C.U.S Spiradera; - transported members of the Obsidian Order to Arris (2295), C.U.S Praeger; - led thirteen Destroyers and a Scout in massive battle against Klingon Forces, causing them to withdraw from a region of Seven Star Systems at Southeast Cardassian Space (2317)
