The Osana-Class Science escort was developed at the same time as the Tar'Hana class Cruiser to serve the purpose of a long-range shuttle capable of larger scientific handlings than most escorts, even surpassing the [[Lanthanum Class|Lanthanum-Class Science Escort]]. The class is well equipped for most missions but specializes in science profiles. The Osana-Class lacks significant weaponry compared to the [[Cicero Class|Cicero Class Support Escort]], but boasts enhanced shielding and manoeuvring abilities. Because of its larger size, most [[Starbase|Starbaes]] do not station very many if any. The [[vessel]] has 4 decks, including science and medical labs and other needed services for mid-to-long-range missions. Most commonly, the Osana-Class Science Escort is used as the [[TarHana Class Cruiser|Tar'Hana Class Cruiser]]'s escort.

The Osana-Class is outfitted for medium to long duration sub-aquatic use. It has deployable fins and can use it's [[thruster]]s to propel itself under water. Underwater it can achieve a speed of up to 100kph and can sustain double that on the water surface. This Science Escort was mainly used as a prototype ship, for the Tar'Hana Class Cruiser. After the General War several were constructed but due to their advanced and tempermental systems the ship never went into major production.
