Peregrine classedit

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

Peregrine class
Affiliation: Federation, Maquis
Type: Courier, interceptor
Active: 24th century
Crew complement: 1
Armament: Lightly armed

The Peregrine class was a type of courier ship appropriated by the Maquis, from the Federation during the early 2370s.

In some cases, the Maquis modified these courier vessels to specifications comparable to an interceptor, including improved engine capability, and light armaments. They often used these vessels during their insurrection against the Cardassian Union. In 2371, Kira Nerys and Odo pursued a modified Peregrine-class courier into the Badlands after it attacked a Lissepian supply ship near Prophet's Landing. (DS9: "Heart of Stone")

The designation "Peregrine-class" was only mentioned in "Heart of Stone", where the design was not seen. However, since the vessel in that episode was referred to as a "courier ship", as well as a "Maquis interceptor", it has been assumed it was the same vessel type as other unnamed designs such as the Federation attack fighter. The Maquis raider is also often confused for the Peregrine-class vessel, although a graphic on screen in VOY: "Repression" established Chakotay's vessel as a Ju'day-class vessel.
