A Klingon Bird-of-Prey featured in Star Trek: Lower Decks, whose junior officer Ma'ah rose to command after exposing and killing his treacherous captain, Dorg.
The Che'Ta' is introduced in wej Duj, which follows the lower decks of three ships. Ma'ah, an ambitious young Klingon, works to win the notice of Captain Dorg while his bunkmates mock him. He learns that Dorg has been secretly arming the Pakleds and directing their attacks on the Federation to start a war and restore Klingon glory.
When Dorg moves against the Cerritos, Ma'ah challenges him, kills him in a duel on the bridge and takes the captain's chair, calling off the attack. In the fourth season the Che'Ta' is one of the ships that vanish in a string of mysterious attacks; it later emerges that its crew mutinied and joined Nick Locarno's Nova Fleet, and Mariner meets the stranded Ma'ah on Sherbal V in The Inner Fight.
