History-

The R-5 Class became a prominent example of Romulan Third-Generation Hulls, being more birdlike, and both ambushing nearby enemy vessels, and escorting convoys and crippled ships. It's name comes from the Celestial Crusader in Milenus Vardus's Saga "Journey to the Stars", and the Class was produced at three Shipyards at a combined rate of 4 per year.
