Nin'toq Class Heavy Destroyer
This is the Nin'toq Class Heavy Destroyer brought to Armada 2 by chiletrek and what a great looking vessel it is. The Nin'toq looks like a kitbash between a Vor'cha and a Fek'lhr, that looks very tough and combat-orientated given the fact that the ship doesn't appear to have any vulnerable features such as the D7 and BoP's elongated neck!, although from it's design I wouldn't have classed it as a destroyer rather a cruiser but thats just personal taste. The one slightly mute point for this ship in my opinion is the stock-type textures but some may see that as bonus as it does fit in perfectly with the stock Klingon fleet.
The Nin'toq's original blueprint schematics, ship-subsytem specs and general information can be found here - Nin'toq Class Specs
Starship background:
The Nin'toq Class ship first began operating within Planetary Assault Groups of the Klingon Imperial Defense Force in 2368. Capable of routine planetary landings and equipped with both assault shuttlecraft and rapid scanning, high-volume pattern-buffer transporter systems, these vessels are designed to directly insert both assault troops and elite special forces into specific, localized target areas under a number of combat scenarios.
A very unique Klingon vessel, a worthy download

Klinogn Nin'toq Heavy Destroyer.:
Hello:
I am Chiletrek and this mod contains a kitbash I made from the Vor'cha to create my version of the very cool Nin'toq Class.
Nin'toq Class ships first began operating within Planetary Assault Groups of the Klingon Imperial Defense Force in 2368. Capable of routine planetary landings and equipped with both assault shuttlecraft and rapid scanning, high-volume pattern-buffer transporter systems, these vessels are designed to directly insert both assault troops and elite special forces into specific, localized target areas under a number of combat scenarios.
Things I made:
1) An update of the Vor'cha's texture (also available in my Vor'cha variants' mod).
2) New model along with a buildbutton, wireframe, Admiral's Log pic and ODF.
3) This Read me.
Installation Instructions:
1) Unzip the contents of this file on a temporary folder.
2) Open your Star Trek Armada II folder.
3) Copy kdestroy1.sod and paste it in your SOD folder.
4) Copy kdestroy1.bmp and paste it in your \bitmaps\AdmiralsLog\ShipImages folder.
5) Copy Kcruise1.tga, knintoqwire.tga & gbkdestroy1.tga , and paste them in your \Textures\RGB folder.
6) Copy kdestroy1.odf and paste it in your \odf\ships folder.
7) Copy kdphas.odf and kdphaso.odf and paste them in your odf\weapons\Phasers folder.
8) Open your Sprites folder and open gui_global.spr with Notepad.
9) Search for: # Klingon build buttons
@reference=64
10) Paste this line:
b_kdestroy1 gbkdestroy1 0 0 64 64
below the last Klingon build button.
11) Now Search for: # Klinogn Wireframes
@reference=256
12) Paste this line:
kdestroy1w1 knintoqwire 256 256 256 256
below the last Klingon wireframe.
- To add the ship to the first Klingon Yard:
13) Go to your odf\stations folder and open kyard.odf with Notepad, search the Construction Parameters and add: buildItem* = "kdestroy1"
Where you replace the * with the next number of the sequence.
14) Pheewwww, Finally, you are ready to enjoy this mod, I'm sorry to make such long read me but it was neccesary to try to avoid problems.
For maximum enjoyment of the stock textures, you may select all files with _1 & _2 in their filenames and cut them to a safe location for backups. Now that those files aren't present all ships, station and special effect will look better than ever.

Yes - J7
Thanks for all of your comments, I really appreciate it , I used the stock textures becasue I like them and fits in my game, but if there is a way to get a version with custom textures, then I think it should be fine
No offense taken . The only thing that dissapointed me about the stock textures were the Federation side, but even though they are made in a hurry, I still like the stock textures, some of them are well done and they have something that don't allow me to get rid off.
And since I cannot make my own texture sets (yet) and still like the stock stuff, then it make sense for me to keep releasing stuff based on stock. But I can do edit a bit so you'll find that the texture I included is not 100% stock.
And about a non-stock version, Amoebia, you may get a surprise soon
