A post-dominion war Cardassian warship. Due to resources shortages after the war this smaller ship uses left over and salvaged parts from destroyed Galor warships.

I mean this kindly, but see a doctor.

It says an enormous amount about the Royal Navy in the late Victorian period that they could essentially build HMS "Fuck That One Ship In Particular" as and when required.

The County-class Protected Cruiser. (A hammerhead-shaped spacecraft with a single drive plume, a raised keel near the aft, and a boat bay amidships between its secondary guns.)

-has been firmly established, popular as a sturdy patrol vessel across the far reaches of its territories, a dependable center for navy squadrons, and the chariot of choice for flag officers on anti-piracy campaigns.

For the first centuries of the Alliance Navy's history, the protected cruiser occupied an unusual place.

Its initial iteration was that of a mid-weight platform carrying both 10 and 13-inch guns plus a sizeable armament of torpedoes, to be employed where the presence of a heavier armoured-
