"We were ambushed, and I did... escape. But I didn't let my crew die. I blew them up. I knew what awaited them on Qo'noS—degradation, torture, slow, public death. It's the Klingon way. To spread terror. Not my crew. Not on my watch."
– Gabriel Lorca, 2256 ("Choose Your Pain")

The USS Buran was a Federation starship operated by Starfleet in the mid-23rd century. In 2256, the Buran was commanded by Captain Gabriel Lorca.

About one month into the Federation-Klingon War, the Buran was ambushed and boarded by Klingons. The ship and its crew is said to be destroyed.

Subsequently, Gabriel Lorca (mirror) took over the original captain's identity and report that; knowing his crew would be tortured and executed on Qo'noS, Lorca elected to destroy his ship and crew. He claimed he was the only survivor, though during the battle he sustained an injury that left lasting photosensitivity in his eyes. (DIS: "Choose Your Pain")
