Editing Vor'cha Class (section)

==Tactical systems==
Heavily armed, Vor'cha's were mounted with a forward disruptor cannon capable of firing solid and intermittent disruptor beams, in addition to torpedoes. (TNG: "Redemption"; DS9: "The Way of the Warrior", "Sacrifice of Angels", "What You Leave Behind") The Vor'cha's that were utilized by the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance in the [[Mirror Universe]] were additionally armed with nacelle mounted disruptor cannons. (DS9: "Crossover") 

The Vor'cha's were well reputed for having enough firepower to threaten a subterranean base. (DS9: "Return to Grace") Despite this reputation, the Vor'cha does have its limitations against heavily fortified targets. During the Dominion War when Chancellor Gowron chose to attack Sarpedion V, he wanted the initial strike to be lead by fifteen Vor'cha class battle cruisers "to soften their defenses," however, according to General Martok, fifteen battle cruisers would "barely scratch their defenses." (DS9: "Tacking Into the Wind") 

''According to a line cut from "Redemption", a Vor'cha had twice the firepower of a [[Bird-of-Prey]]. ''

These vessels, like all [[Klingon]] [[starship]]s of the time, also incorporated [[Cloaking device|cloaking technology]], which protected them from detection in most evasive situations. (TNG: "Reunion"; DS9: "Sons of Mogh")
