When the Kilrathi first went to war, the Ralari-Class Destroyer was the most modern capital ship in their arsenal. By the mid-2650s the fleet would include more than three thousand of the destroyers, using them as planetary assault ships, convoy escorts and line warships. Variants of the Ralari include an armored command and control ship for co-ordinating amphibious landings and a ship-to-planet missile laden "strategic bomber".
The hardy destroyers have also served in an unexpected capacity: flying the colors of the Terran Confederation Space Navy. Their superior bombardment capabilities has lead to the pressing of captured Ralari into Confederation service. A Ralari captured while attempting to raid the Port Hedland System was immediately put into service during the siege of Kurasawa; unfortunately, the destroyer did not survive the battle.
Commodore Christopher Blair is credited with nine confirmed Ralari kills while serving on the TCS Tiger's Claw (including four during the Vega Campaign, two during Operation Thor's Hammer and three during Operation Crusade). Major Pitzak Puzaki, of the TCS Eagle's Talon, destroyed two of the destroyers during the defense of Hubble's Star and Hell's Kitchen.
Notable Ralari include the KIS Rathtak, which survived an attack by Tiger's Claw pilots in early 2654. Noted pilots Captain R.A. Skinner and Lieutenant Larry Dibbles were killed during the strike.
