Completed and commissioned at Ross System Shipyards in 4418, the Hormut Class is the predecessor of the Trafalgar Class. While the Hormut class is a Uniform Design Union Battle ship and as such a terrible war machine of tremendous fire power, the Hormut Class manufactured by Enroe Ship Yards, suffered from a Shield generator design problem. The design prevented the shield sectors from overlapping and created weak spots.

This design flaw became apparent during a heavy weapon engagement battle in the Warduz System ( Close to the Nul Region in the Upward Sector) with an unexpected strong Nul Battle force. (Known as the Warduz Engagement ).
