Tiaru Jarok... With a new ship perhaps?

We have a new Carrier with her name, as homage to her.
Currently, Jarok has a T5 ship named the R.R.W. Lleiset. In future missions, will she be flying the Jarok Alliance Carrier?

Whether she is or not, I suggest she gets command of a newer T6? Maybe the Khopesh Tactical Dreadnought Warbird.

    It's named after her dad Alidar actually.

    I doubt they'll bother changing her ship in any case. Tier doesn't matter to AI.

    After her dad? Oh, I did not know that. Where did you obtain that information?

    Tier no, I am aware of that, but it does to us. If you see a flagship, would you prefer seeing a T5 OR a T6? Personally, I think a T6 ship would be more prestigious for her.

    I don’t think anyone outright said why the ship is named Jarok, but it makes sense that Alidar would be the namesake because is a canonical Star Trek character, an Admiral in the Romulan Navy, an early proponent of peace between The Romulan Star Empire and the Federation, and a martyr to the cause.

    In the TNG episode “The Defector” Alidar Jarok attempts defect to the Federation to prevent a Romulan-Federation war. He is given false information and inadvertently lures the Enterprise into a trap, eventually committing suicide when he fails. He does though leave a note for his wife and daughter (who was named Tiaru in apocryphal (non-canonical or beta-canon) sources such as STO).

    Interesting! Thanks for sharing that. I had no clue, I certainly couldn't remember there was a Rom by that name in the tv show.

    I would think a refit of the lahset from it's current design to the newer Legendary designs in a similar vein to the Enterprise F getting the Yorktown refit. Maybe with a unique vanity shield hull material to be unique.
