The '''Defiant Class Light Cruiser''' is another varient variant of the [[Endeavor Class Light Cruiser|Endeavor]], in this case its [[weapons batteries]] being replaced by flight decks. The Defiant is used as an escort for larger ships, and or as a convoy strike craft carrier. The Defiant is a capible capable carrier, but too vunerable vulnerable to opperate operate without support, as it has no significant defensive capabilities. It is often seen alongside its sister varientsvariants, the [[Endeavor Class Light Cruiser|Endeavor]] and [[Endurance Class Light Cruiser|Endurance]].<sup>1</sup>
The Defiant has two flight decks and two short range lances upon its prow. Its lack of firepower often delegates it to opperating operating as support to larger ships rather than in its intended role as an escort.<sup>1</sup>
Two notable Notable Defiant Class ships of the Defiant class exist, but both were lost while gaining fame. They are include:;Forebearer:Seen during the [[ForebearerThird War for Armageddon]] . Lost above St Jowen's Dock but destroyed the Kill Kroozer Grimzag's Ammer and crippled two Terror Class ships with the Archangel.<sup>1</sup>;Archangel:Seen during the [[ArchangelThird War for Armageddon]].Lost above St Jowen's Dock but destroyed the Kill Kroozer Grimzag's Ammer and crippled two Terror Class ships with the Forebearer.<sup>1</sup>
