USS Malinche NCC-38997-A

Has the class(es) of these ships ever been mentioned? If so, I can't find it.

Technically a question like this should go under the Mission Discussion topic for our mission, but anyway...

Dawes is Defiant, Dorado is Nebula.

Coulda sworn I mentioned it, but perhaps not. In eithercase, the names follow Horizon Fleet's naming scheme for Defiant/Nebula class.
