Each of these starships comes equipped with a Supplemental Subsystems universal console and an unlockable Subsystem Redundancies starship trait.

Supplemental Subsystems Console

“Activating this console substantially increases your starship’s maximum subsystem power levels for a short time. While active, incoming energy weapon attacks damage the attacker, and leech a small amount of the attacker’s subsystem power back to you. Additionally, you gain a Subsystem Overload Counter each time you are hit with an energy attack. After obtaining 20 counters you emit a devastating pulse of electrical energy which deals heavy damage to nearby enemies. Affected enemies have all of their subsystems knocked offline for a brief period. This console provides a passive bonus to all subsystem power levels and can only be equipped on Starfleet Dreadnought Cruisers, Advanced Warbirds or Siege Destroyers in any console slot.” Source: Cryptic

Subsystem Redundancies

A Level 5 Starship Mastery Trait. “While Subsystem Redundancies is slotted, firing a Spinal Lance, Javelin or Beam: Overload I, II and III will trigger a shield heal, a shield hardness buff and will restore offline shields.” Source: Cryptic

These vessels are also equipped with a hangar bay and are available for purchase in Star Trek Online via the C-Store.
