==Overview== Birds-of-Prey are small, fast and fill a variety of roles for the [[Klingon Empire|Empire]]. They can be used as scouts, raiders or patrol ships. They're vulnerable when cloaked, but their speed and maneuverability make them hard to hit. Also, the Bridge Officer spaces on a Bird-of-Prey are mostly universal, which makes them more versatile. Pilot vessels are highly agile crafts designed to perform advanced maneuvers that can give them a deadly edge in combat. By double tapping your directional movement keys your ship will perform a maneuver in that direction. [[File:Terminal Expanse - Kelvin Timeline.png|200px|thumb|left|D4x Birds-of-Prey were used by the [[Kelvin Timeline]] [[Klingons]] in the [[Temporal Cold War]]]]{{Bird-of-Prey}} In the midst of the [[Temporal Cold War|confrontations]] currently raging across multiple eras in the primary timeline, there have also been incidents of incursions into entirely alternate realities. One such breach has resulted in many artifacts and technological oddities from another timeline getting pulled into our own. A closer examination of this timeline reveals that it is a divergent reality that split from our own as a result of a confrontation in the [[23rd Century]], between [[Narada|an unknown Romulan vessel]] that had been displaced from the time stream, and a Federation starship - the {{mAlpha|USS Kelvin|U.S.S. ''Kelvin''}}. As a result of this temporal incursion, the entire timeline that followed those events has come to be called the [[Kelvin Timeline|"Kelvin Timeline."]] Examination of the time-lost salvage taken from the Kelvin Timeline reveals that the Federation of that reality had a decidedly higher emphasis on military technologies, likely as a direct result of their overwhelming defeat at the hands of the alien vessel that invaded their space in the 23rd Century. The same has shown to be true of the [[Klingon]] and [[Romulan]] ships of that time. This emphasis on cutting-edge technology allows their starships and equipment to be comparable to starships of the early [[25th Century]] Prime Universe, despite technically being hundreds of years old. A small group of industrious scientists have taken it upon themselves to replicate these designs, and distribute them throughout the modern era. The [[Klingon|Klingons]] of the [[Kelvin Timeline]] were inspired by the tenacious {{mAlpha|D4 class|D4 fighter}} when they designed the ''D4x'' Pilot Bird-of-Prey. Incredibly nimble and armed for heavy combat, the D4x is a force to be reckoned with across two realities. A [[Ability: Battle Cloak|battle cloak]] adds to the threat of this fearsome vessel. {{:Starship class/KDF/D4x}}
