The Scorpio class was an Andorian-designed class of corvette used by Starfleet in the late 23rd century.[1]
The Scorpio class was comissioned in 2285[2] to improve and extend the defenses of Federation starbases and other bases or systems that required protection. They were usually deployed in pursuit groups of twelve ships, organized in three flights of four ships each. Despite the corvette designation, their actual usage would also qualify the Scorpio class as attack fighters.
