Ablative armor is a very durable type of armor seen on newer starships such as the Defiant Class, Prometheus Class, and Sovereign Class. It is capable of sustaining multiple hits from Dominion weapons or Klingon disruptors before failing. Ablative armor allows a ship to stay in combat even after the shields have failed.
