The ''Defiant'' class is a variant of the [[Endeavour Class Light Cruiser]], in this case its [[weapons batteries]] being replaced by [[Attack Craft]] flight decks. The Defiant is used as an [[escort]] for larger ships, and /or as a convoy strike craft carrier. The Defiant is a capable carrier, but too vulnerable to operate without support, as it has no significant defensive capabilities. It is often seen alongside its sister variants, the Endeavour and [[Endurance Class Light Cruiser]].{{Fn|1}}
The Defiant has two flight decks and two short range lances upon its prow. Its lack of fire-power often delegates it to operating as support to larger ships rather than in its intended role as an escort.{{Fn|1}}
