The Reman warbird Scimitar was a massive warship constructed under the command of Shinzon as part of a secret plot to overthrow the Romulan Senate and liberate the subjugated natives of Remus.

The Scimitar was the keystone of Shinzon's plot to assassinate the Romulan Senate and assume the role of Praetor of the Romulan Star Empire, something he could not achieve without the support of the Romulan military. The Scimitar helped prove Shinzon's ambitions of attacking the Federation and ending the period of peace that had frustrated some Romulan generals.

The Scimitar was destroyed by the crew of the USS Enterprise-E at the Battle in the Bassen Rift, where it inflicted severe damage on the Starfleet ship and Romulan reinforcements. Lt. Commander Data of the Enterprise managed to board the Scimitar, where he transported Captain Picard off the ship. Picard had originally gone to the ship to disable the thalaron generator, but was unsuccessful. After he was gone, Data fired his hand phaser into the thalaron intermix chamber, only two seconds before the weapon would have fired. This caused a chain reaction which destroyed both the ship and Data. (Star Trek Nemesis)
