I.S.S. Ambiguous

History


The I.S.S. Ambiguous was originally designed as a scout-ship for locating potential targets and relaying that information back to the Fleet for tactical analysis. However the potential of the Saber Class design had never been fully realized until the Suliban were annexed by the New Terran Empire.

Suliban assets presented the Empire with the use of Cloaking Technology for the first time however due to the small size of Suliban "Cell Ships", this technology could only be used in smaller class designs as a larger ship with a much greater power signature would be impossible to hide.

Suddenly, the lightly armed and underpowered Saber Class, which had until this point been largely ignored as a viable warship for the Empire suddenly came under an intense refit program, updating its weapon systems and power generation technology in order to support the Suliban Cloaking Device.

The Saber Class became one of the most important ship designs in the Terran Empire due to its ability to support Fleets as long range scouts and its abilities to partake in Stealth infiltrations.

Construction and Initial Assignment
The I.S.S. Ambiguous was constructed originally as a disposable and inexpensive ship due to the Empire's initial lack of resources. It is currently the oldest vessel serving in Task Force Avenger except for the I.S.S. Accuser which is an original Miranda Class vessel.

The I.S.S. Ambiguous is the only vessel in the Task Force which is capable of cloaking due to its enhanced NSA Class Dilithium Enfused Matter/Antimatter Reactor. It is able to balance the power requirements with the cloaking with the power requirements of the ship itself, making it an indispensable asset to the Fleet itself.

It was assigned to Task Force Avenger as a long range, tactical scout after a successful mission discovering Klingon rebels in the Mempa Sector. It is currently under the command of Captain Nasanna Dantius.
