The Kumari escaped destruction, but suffered heavy damage. It was only discovered later that the Andorians intended to take the weapon for themselves, though Enterprise's captain, Jonathan Archer, prevented Shran from doing so by detonating the prototype.
After spending several weeks following Enterprise's warp trail, the Kumari rendered assistance in capturing a Xindi prototype weapon. In December 2153, the Kumari entered the Delphic Expanse in search of the Earth starship Enterprise NX-01. In 2154, the ship had a crew complement of eighty-six. The Kumari was capable of speeds in excess of warp five and was armed with advanced weaponry and a tractor beam.
The Kumari was put under the command of Commander Shran in 2142.
