The Sharlin class warcruiser was in its time the largest and most powerful ship in the Minbari fleet. They were manufactured at the Valeria-On-High Orbital Shipyards orbiting Minbar.
Technical Details
One of, if not the most powerful warships of all the younger races in known space, the Sharlin's stealth systems give it a decisive advantage over the scanning and tracking systems that when active prevent enemy craft from achieving a positive weapons lock.[3][2] The Sharlin is also equipped with advanced scanners that are so powerful, when set to maximum they have been known to interfere with the electronics aboard less advanced starships, effectively jamming their systems.[4]
