Description and Notes
Fleet data: A missing Starfleet Intelligence operative turned up in 2268, claiming to have been held captive by a 'renegade' Kzinti commander for the past year. During that time, he witnessed several new Kzinti ship designs with uncharacteristically high-tech weapon and computer systems. Among the largest of these vessels, the operative insisted, was a new thirty-two-deck 'assault cruiser' with devastating weaponry and carrying a regiment of Kzinti troops. While no evidence of a cloaking device was noted, Starfleet Intelligence became acutely aware that new reconnaissance missions were called for to learn more of these vessels' capabilities. The political fallout of this revelation cost several analysts in the intelligence community their careers and saw increased Starfleet patrols near the worlds of the Kzinti Patriarchy.

Noteworthy vessels / service records / encounters: Fury's Fangs, the Assault Cruiser seen by a Starfleet operative in 2267, is the only known example of this class, but this vessel has not been encountered anywhere else by Starfleet, so its existence is still in doubt.

Editor's Notes
Original work by the author for use in campaigns that utilize the Kzinti. Perhaps rename and use the vessel as some other unknown alien species?
