The IKS B'Moth was a Klingon K't'inga-class battle cruiser that was in service with the Klingon Defense Force in the late 24th century.

In late 2373, the B'Moth was attacked by the Jem'Hadar while on patrol at the Cardassian border. Disabled and on emergency power only, the cruiser drifted across the border into Cardassian space. The IKS Rotarran found the B'Moth three days later, and rescued thirty-five survivors. (DS9: "Soldiers of the Empire")

Background information[]

According to the script for this episode, the pronunciation for B'Moth was "buh-MOTH". [1]

While the Rotarran rescued the surviving crew of the B'Moth, the fate of the ship itself was left unclear on screen, however this ambiguity was addressed in the script. According to the script, upon the first viewing of the ship onscreen, it "reveals the badly damaged wreckage of a Klingon Battle Cruiser. One whole side of the ship has been blown away and it's clearly beyond repair."

The novel The Left Hand of Destiny, Book Two features the B'Moth back in service after the Dominion War. The Starships RPG sourcebook gives its registry as IKC-7739.
