The IKS Negh'Var was a Klingon battleship and prototype of the Negh'Var-class. The Negh'Var entered the Klingon Defense Force as the fleet's new flagship.
In early 2372, the Negh'Var, under command of General Martok led a Klingon task force to Deep Space 9 in preparation for the invasion of the Cardassian Union. After the beginning of the conflict the Negh'Var led an attack force back to Deep Space 9 to capture the Cardassian Detapa Council sheltering on the space station. Its powerful disruptors succeeded in penetrating the station's shields and allowing for a boarding action to take place. The attack ultimately failed due to the imminent arrival of Starfleet reinforcements and the Negh'Var retreated with the surviving Klingon warships. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior")
