IKAR is a TSYKLON-class Destroyer.
IKAR is a TSYKLON-class Destroyer. The tactical configuration of the TSYKLON was developed to allow adequate defense while providing maximum energy distribution to the engines and AUGUR sensor suite. This philosophy directly resulted in the addition of ablative armor to give a static boost to the FD-7e shielding, as well as linking the multiple dorsal phaser arrays to a common bank for power
conservation.
 
An outgrowth of the technology used in the DELPHI and ORACLE suites, the AUGUR sensor suite uses a system similar to the subspace field balancing coil of three nacelle ships like SOLAR, CAESAR, and FENRIS to focus a subspace scanning beam which allows faster-than-light (long-range)  sensor reading at far higher resolutions than any conventional sensor system with a fraction of the computer processing overhead of the DELPHI and ORACLE systems, both of which require dedicated computer cores. In addition, the AUGUR is designed to tie into the ship's communication systems to act as a high-power signal relay station or a jamming station.
 
When the sensor system is operating in high power mode, the warp field is distorted to such an extent that it actually impacts the performance of the starship's propulsion system.  This is in part due to the
configuration of the TSYKLON class which allows the AUGUR system to directly interact with the warp nacelles.
 
With the AUGUR system, the TSYKLON class vessels are quite capable for reconnaissance, exploration, and patrol missions.
