Heavy escort

The Star Trek Expanded Universe Database is for fanon and related content. See Memory-Alpha.org for the canon Star Trek wiki.

In starship classification, a heavy escort was a type of escort that was more heavily armed and armored then a standard escort.

Klingons tended to prefer heavy escorts and destroyer escorts as they considered a standard escort not fit for a 'true warrior'. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 3: Ships of the Klingon Empire)
