Indria-A History: Difference between revisions

Launched from StarBase 118 on Stardate 237506.09, the '''USS Indria-A''' was assigned as a covert operations vessel. The Indria is a [[ma:Nebula_class|Nebula Class]] starship. The Nebula class design was chosen for the covert operations assignment as it has an interchangeable mission pod, this makes the ship very flexible in terms of capabilities. As such the Indria can provide a platform for a variety of mission types.  

The Indria-A was thrust into significance some time ago when it was hijacked by a rebel member of the [[ma:Tal_Shiar|Romulan Tal Shiar]]. In the time it was taken, the rebel agent fitted the ship with a cloaking device, and was planning to use the Indria as the flagship, in a fleet of Warbirds, in an attempted hostile take-over of the [[ma:Romulan_Star_Empire|Romulan government]]. With the help of the Romulan government the Indria crew recovered the Indria, however she was very heavily damaged in the process.  

The [[ma:Romulan_Star_Empire|Romulan government]], deeply embarrassed by the incident, did not enforce its earlier threat to remove the cloaking device by force, obviously assuming the cloak had been heavily damaged with the rest of the vessel. The cloaking device however had only received superficial damage, and was repaired. As such the Indria was the only Starfleet ship, other than the [[ma:USS_Defiant|USS Defiant]], with a cloaking device that does not break the [[ma:Treaty_of_Algeron|Romulan-Federation peace treaty]]. (As the cloak was fitted by Romulans.)
