- No history or fate is established for this vessel as its name was randomly selected for a Vor'cha-class Klingon cruiser by the game software. While the canon materials surrounding the use of the model use the term "attack cruiser" for the ship's type, SFC3 refers to this and other Vor'cha ships as "battle cruisers". It is not clear if the terms were synonymous or if, at some point, some Vor'cha vessels were outfitted to fill service as a different ship type. SFC3 assigns the the name prefix "IKV".
- According to The Klingon Dictionary, in tlhIngan Hol the ship's name is correctly written 'o'lav (no capital), which means "drum".
