The predecessor to the well-known D'kora, the S'kara Marauder was one of the most common Ferengi warships of the late 23rd Century. The S'kara relies on its four medium plasma cannons to deliver killing blows to enemy ships.

Many S'Kara Marauders remain in service, many heavily upgraded to take advantage of new technologies. Such ships are inferior to new build units, but are adequate for service in the fleets of less wealthy Ferengi.
