Antares class (freighter)

Antares-class freighters were a type of starship used by several races during the 24th century, most notably the Bajorans, Cardassians, and Corvallens. These vessels commonly served as cargo ships or transports. 

In the early 2360s, Brian Mallory served as an engineer's mate aboard the SS Persephone, an an Antares-class freighter. 

Vessels of this class were armed and used for planetary defense by the Bajoran Provisional Government following the Cardassian Withdrawal. 


 * This class was named after the ill-fated starship from "". The Corvallen-used version was a different, but similar, model from the Bajoran/Cardassian variety. It seems unlikely that the Federation would use the same designation for two vastly different starship types, so it might be assumed that the Corvallen freighter is a variant of the Antares''-class.
