What class of Cardassian Ship is this? It could be a Galor Starship REFIT but I don't think so!
So what is it? It think it's Kalen Class or something like that

Keldon class, but misquoted by Kira as Kalen in "The Die Is Cast", IIRC.

They were originally just Galor class ships upgraded and used by the Obsidian Order.

Cujo.. dialogue in "Defiant" tended to support the idea that they were a seperate class even before the OO's modifications...

Keldon Class to be sure, as seen in "Defiant".
Although to readers of the DS9 Tech Manual this will come as news....

I think The_Tom is right about the Keldon class. The class name is already familiar in "Defiant", but not the fact the OO builds lots of them. Nevertheless, AFAIK the class never turned up again after "The Die is Cast".
We thought it was bad that the DS9TM didn't give names to those kitbashes... They didn't even give a name to a ship that already had one!

Yup, the Keldon Class was a totally seperate type.
*IF* they had been the vessels created by the Obsidian Order Dukat would have just gawked and wondered what they were. Not given them a name.
I get the impression that the Keldon may be an older type of Galor, (long range variant or somesuch) thus the Obsidian Order could get them out from under central commands nose without too much fuss. (Decommissioned in a shipyard or the like?).
