Just that their ships are both referred to as “Bird-of-Prey” thus causing the need for differentiation.
I belive that in TOS the models were inconsistently used for both Klingons and Romulans.
Romulans first in “Balance of Terror” then repurposed name using a different design for Klingons in STIII. Plus some retconning in ENT.
No way. The naming of the “Klingon Bird of Prey” was in STiii? I’d always just assumed that it was TOS.
The Klingons probably stole a bird of prey from the Romulans at some point and managed to create more of them. Would explain why their ship design barely changes over like 300 years lol.
“You’ve not seen a Bird of Prey until you’ve seen the original Klingon!”
