Comments: The strike cruisers of Vlezhdatl class are typical Zhodani escort and frontier war ships. The highest technology available is used on these ships. Any high tech equipment acquired by the Zhodani may find its way into a Vlezhdatl class ship. This all depends on what is available and what the larger Zhodani ships require.

Vlezhdatl class ships are usually found in groups of three, in a triangular formation. This way the heavy firepower of the ships can be directed against one target or many. The formation also provides good protection for the auxiliary or fragile ships. Such squadrons are very useful as independent commands, free to do as they please within their orders.
