z'mortama death stalker FASA (ship class?)

In my klingonaase notes I have *gav* "bird" - I don't remember if I found this or just derived it from the above ship classes.
FYI More avian klingonaase from various sources:
cherwtl bird native to Klinzhai
d'lan wing FASA
dath d'lan one wing (D-11 class destroyer) FASA
withiki bird native to Klinzhai
Withiki race of intelligent winged beings within the Empire TFR
