History:
Developed to try and get the Fleet Numbers back up after the Massacre of Wolf 359, the Sorgen-Class is very closely related to the Nebula-Class, almost to the point of being just another Nebula Variant, with a Miranda-esque Rollbar. The vessels were used as Troop Transports, and led direct bombardments of Cardassian, Jem'Hadar and Breen Outposts, and larger Dreadnoughts.
Noteworthy Vessels/Service Records/Encounters: U.S.S Sorgen; - Prototype; - destroyed by Breen (2375), U.S.S Armwressen; - after a long, distinguished career leading small groups of Destroyers and Escorts on patrol missions, was converted to a testing ship and eventually retired (2454), U.S.S Merstein and U.S.S Menkyle; - Destroyed in the Dominion War (2374), U.S.S Howarth; - helped to retake Benzar (2375), U.S.S Fievel; - engaged Taurhai Scout Ship (2384)
