3125 Scale Kzinti Drone Frigate SRZ

The Kzintis are a species of eight-foot-tall felines; the Klingons call them "tigermen." They are adjacent to the Federation (and have fought two major wars with them, losing both) and the Klingons (and have fought several wars with them, winning a few and losing a few). Kzinti ships are armed with disruptors, phasers, and drones. They have more drones on their standard warships than any other empire, and forests of phaser-3s, because their ships are designed to fight each other. (They have had more civil wars than foreign wars.) They are enemies of the Klingons and Lyrans and allies of convenience with the Hydrans and Federation.

The Kzintis built a modified frigate-class ship for use in a long-range drone-launching mode. While a drone frigate would be a valuable addition to a Kzinti fleet (due to its control abilities and stockpile of drones), they were too valuable for such use and were usually operated in drone frigate squadrons for long-range support missions under control of the highest headquarters. Field commanders consistently tried to gain control of the drone frigate squadrons to use them for direct combat support and were successful on occasion.

The ship is available in a variety of materials. Ships are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
