Defiant-refit (2385) Indomitable-class
The Defiant Defense Project began in 2366 as a counter to the Borg threat. Although it's stated goal was to create a new Heavy Escort, privately StarFleet officials acknowledged that the vessel was in fact, intended to be the first Warship ever designed by the Federation. The Defiant program was shelved for several years as the Borg threat diminished, but then because of the rise of threat of Dominion aggression the project was again reinstated and a prototype built and launched in 2371. During the Dominion war the Defiant proved brutally effective though had several design issues and so with the advance's in technology and a desire to rectify the design issues by 2385 a "Defiant refit" had been developed. (Defiant class refits were renamed Indomitable-class), all the original flaws were addressed and rectified, making Indomitable-class Heavy Escorts a potent and versatile offensive platform. These vessels are designed for deep space tactical operations and perimeter defense, and are dedicated warships. Because of this they are spartan vessels, with little consideration given to crew comfort.

SIF B'up 55 <19>
*one of the test vessels for the newly introduced class 8 SIF. Because of the defiant's issues with structural integrity it was decided to install the largest (and most powerful) SIF system developed. This Class SIF was specifically developed for this vessel.
Crew 40/10/192

*the Indomitable carry's 2 fire teams of Marines, who serve as the vessels security personnel, the Marine's commanding officer serves as the vessels Chief Tactical officer.

basic 10 (1-2 berth)
*all quarters, ergonomically adaptable, replicator terminal, computer console, sonic shower. All enlisted personnel are expected to share quarters, Officers have the option to either share or occupy a quarters by themselves (The vessels Commanding officer and First officer are assigned a single occupancy Basic quarters). The Captains quarters is situated just off the bridge (deck 1) and doubles as a informal ready room.

EMH MKI <5>
*this vessels sick bay is exactly the same size as the original's , though all systems have been uprated and is now a fully equipped med bay (there are 4 bio-bed's), this sick bay was specifically designed to fit in the confined space frame of the Indomitable.
Recreation facilities (2) <16>
1 holosuite, spartan mess hall with small lounge integrated, making the mess hall somewhat more comfortable. (Rather then having 2 mess halls on Deck 2 like the Defiant, all Indomitable-classes have a single mess hall with integrated lounge on deck 2). The mess hall also doubles as a makeshift meeting area that could be used to conduct crew briefings and mission profiles. A tall holo-screen panel located on one of the walls could be used as a visual aid to display tactical graphics.

Sensor skill 5
*LOS MkI acts as a cloak 6, 50pwr when active <15>
Employs a remarkable first generation two-layer system to avoid detection. First, it uses several special low-power chronoton field emitters, essentially "poor man's cloaking devices", to mask the ship from sensors. At a passing glance, a sensor scan would go right over it. In the event that they manage to arouse some attention, the second system is brought online: a silicon-based biological compound on the hull that mimics the surrounding colors and lights with remarkable accuracy.
*Rather then fitting a traditional cloaking device all Indomitable-class vessels use the newly developed LOS (Low Observation Suite), these early prototype systems provide approximately 75% of the effectiveness of the Romulan type 8 cloaking device while being able to be operate with significantly less power.

Wave Man, the term "wave man" is the English translation of 'Ronin' (Japanese word) and literately translates to "wandering person" and in a modern context a WaveMan is one who is socially adrift or a SalaryMan who is between employers.
