The Bird-of-Prey was the classic Klingon starship. It is a fast and deadly scouting and raiding ship that has been at the heart of the Klingon Defense Force for centuries.
The first examples even pre-date Klingon spaceflight. Small fighters with the same basic layout have been in use since early planetary conflicts. That design has been modified over the centuries, first to incorporate impulse engines, then warp engines. Even fundamental changes to science have been incorporated into the same basic spaceframe. The Klingons have simply seen no need to change something that they believe is fundamentally correct.
By the late 2370s, the design of the Bird-of-Prey had been settled for over a century, but ships were produced at a variety of scales from vast K’vort-class battlecruisers to tiny scouting vessels. The archetypal version of the ship is the B’rel-class, a 139-meter long ship with seven decks and a crew of 36. The internal layout and even weaponry vary from ship to ship, but they are all capable of high warp speeds, and fitted with a cloaking device. To many Klingon minds, it was the perfect fighting vessel-as fast, tough and deadly as its crew.

[@AT2Productions]

In canon there are multiple versions of the Bird of Prey, which resulted in different hull sizes and layouts. The B'rel and K'vort classes are just two of them that have been put on screen.

[@VulpisFoxfire]

Yep. Unlike the Feds who in most cases had to come up with an entirely new hull design for each ship, the Klingons found one that worked great, and just scaled it up as needed. And IIRC, it was the D-7 that they shared with the Romulans, who had their own 'Bird of Prey' design.

[@dougs7367]

@@VulpisFoxfire The Kilingon Bird of Prey was actually a Romulan/Klingon collaboration design.. which is why it has the avian features such as the feather looking hull plates etc

yes the IKS Rotarran was considered the bigger end of the classes of birds of prey, i doubt anyone would want to mess with that ship especially if General Martok was in command, its a dominion war veteran ship with a battle-hardened crew, a ship of veteran warriors

[@mikethompson3521]

There are many examples of Klingon women serving on military vessels. See the TNG episode from Season 2 where Riker serves on a Bird of Prey or many scenes from the Klingon Civil War in later seasons. If there is a lack of gender separation on their ships, it’s probably because it isn’t deemed important to them.

[@Mac10Daddy]

@@Halfscreen it was also one design, perhaps of a sub-class. Remember the BOP bridge design changed to what we saw commonly in Star Trek V and forward.

Much of the time it seems between 100 and 150 meters, in Star Trek 3 onward. 450 feet was the 'official scale' given in the Haynes Bird of Prey Manual, too. Which depicts six to seven decks, also - in a very different layout. Have to say the cargo bay and corridor are pretty detailed and similar to the movie set, in that book - if maybe overscaled. Was this based on a FASA or Jackill deckplan?

[@johanwittens7712]

Also need to take into account the difference between the b'rel en k'vort class birds of prey. There is no ''THE'' Klingon bird of prey. The b'rel was a small scout ship, mainly from the tos movies. But the k'vort as seen in TNG is a much larger version of the bird of prey, even though it looks pretty much exactly the same as the b'rel from the outside.

[@jaredcolon4535]

[@auturgicflosculator2183]

[@johanwittens7712]

It's mostly beta cannon, as it is never explicitly said in TNG, but almost all birds of prey from TNG are considered k'vort class and not b'rel. The 'vorn' , the 'rotarran' , the 'pagh', the 'hegh'ta', and so on are all considered k'vort class in most alpha or beta canon sources... But the shows were always a bit vague about this up until the rotarran showed up, when it is made pretty clear it's a k'vort and not a b'rel.

[@auturgicflosculator2183]

@@johanwittens7712 In my head canon, I imagine there are heaps of different versions of the class, it being an old workhorse that's been refit and modernized for upward of a century, and B'rel and K'vort are simply the most prominent subclasses in the TOS and TNG eras respectively. There might be actual evidence of this, or I might be making it up. I'm a bit foggy on the details. :P

[@chrissonofpear1384]

@@auturgicflosculator2183 I just tend to ignore the size figure from the Tech Manual, however. There's no real consistent evidence the K'Vort is larger than 350 meters long, outside of that. And the B'Rel/D-12 etc, all average about 100 to 139 meters long, despite what the video implies. And with six decks or so (for general audience) As for how many variants, at least two, but could be five plus. How much they vary in size depends on personal opinion. Also, Johan Wittens - when was it made clear, about the Rotarran?

[@Clownboy15]

One thing that doesn’t get mentioned is why the bridge of Kruge’s bird of prey looks completely different between STIII and STIV. In my own head canon I suppose that there was heavy damage done to the ship and the Vulcans couldn’t repair to Klingon standard so they retrofitted the ship with Vulcan parts.

[@stevenmynes6212]

My opinion is that the ST IV bridge, which was about half the size of the ST III bridge, was the ship's aux bridge.

Nice work. But correction to this video and the previous video regarding the length of the Enterprise. The original Constitution Class was 288m. The refit, including the Enterprise A was 305m. Also, the D7 was 228m, not 288m. It makes a difference in scaling so double check your sources. Remember some official material has been misprinted and it found its way to the internet resources.

Ah so that's where the warp drive is!

[@zAvAvAz]

The bird of prey Romulan / vulcan design is the most survivable ship design in the universe in battle as far as redundancy and weapons potential potency as well as it's surprise attack ability, also its profile is harder to target at a distance than any other ship because of the boom design and it's detachability, the wings as physical deflectors in multiple positions offer special maneuvers during combat that a skilled pilot can create movements in battle sequence that are highly elusive. Another key is klingon red energy based weapon design and extra potency and vile out of range ballistics potential when fired at speed out of range can still paint target with it's shields down, cloaking upon firing a high powered red energy photon torpedos are highly dangerous, as the weaponry's energy is highly unstable and offers an erratic spiking energy potency.

Redundancy is not wasteful for a combat vessel. A damaged vessel can keep on fighting. Perhaps not quite as effectively, but a Bird of Prey at 60% is still a formidable warship. For a real world example, take a look at the Fairchild Republic A-10 Warthog attack/close air support jet.

Thanks for this. I always wondered where they put those whales. Also, this style of ship seemed to come in various sizes (you mentioned the B'Rel for example).

I wonder if this can be explained as a feature of various Klingon Houses (family/ klan/ etc....) who crewed Imperial ships as they saw fit...? Thoughts, anyone?

[@Halfscreen]

I recommend checking out EC Henry video on the different sizes. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYi4cp-ah9uIj5I&t I thing I have noticed about researching ST relative books and technical manual is information given is not always consistent.

[@jedironin380]

Women were on Klingon ships whenever the Director said so! ;)

[@balrighty3523]

Others have mentioned the multiple sizes thing and the presence of female officers, so I eon't get into that, but I'm surprised no mention was made about where the Bird of Prey's warp engines are. (I always thought they were just housed in the same part of the ship as the impulse engines (based on where the camera zooms in when they go back in time in STIV), but apparently they're the wings, and the feather plates are just differently-shaped warp coils.) Also, your 8.6 must be on the new scale; we know the ship got up to at least 9.9 when it went back in time.

I always thought the bridge design should denote his/her bath rooms, and a loung/ food / drink service like a long range train does. Because if as in the real world you have a long shift some comfort is needed.

I swear, I saw the battery room and thought "Ah, that's where they keep the barrels of bloodwine".

Can you do a halfscreen on the D7 K. Battlecruiser?

[@Halfscreen]

I just found a pretty good schematic of the D7. Why not.
