InterdictorS

Interdictors are a class of starships in the Star Trek universe, first introduced in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation. They are designed to intercept and board enemy vessels, often serving as a response to the Borg's ability to assimilate other ships. Interdictors are typically smaller than other Starfleet vessels and are equipped with advanced sensors and cloaking devices to remain undetected while approaching their targets. Their primary role is to engage and board enemy ships, often using phasers and photon torpedoes to disable or destroy the target before boarding. Interdictors are known for their agility and maneuverability, allowing them to quickly approach and board targets. They are often used in conjunction with other Starfleet vessels to intercept and neutralize threats. Interdictors have been featured in several episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, as well as in the animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks.
