T'Ong (Klingon Battle Cruiser)

Klingon Military Operations and Naval Warfare; Tactical Warship Engagements and Cultural Command Authority

Description

T'Ong is a Klingon battle cruiser acting as an antagonistic military vessel in the current material. It employs cloaking and sudden offensive action against the USS Enterprise, operates under an elderly Klingon captain with a first officer and crew, and ultimately yields command through Klingon cultural ritual: Worf asserts authority, K'Ehleyr is installed to take the ship, and the cruiser departs under escort. Its methods combine naval warfare, cloaking tactics, and formalized Klingon command transfer.
