                  Part F of THE ULTIMATE STAR TREK REFERENCE


            now includes information from _Star Trek Chronology_!


                               Updated: 4/13/93


    WHY SUCH A LIST?

         Originally  this started out as a sort of "encyclopedia" project,

    a compiled list of the ships that appeared in Star Trek.  However, the

    original  entries are for series only, while I wished to present every

    scrap  of information possible.  At the end, I settled for listing the

    ships  that appeared onscreen  (except TAS, I  guess), plus additional

    information about them from other sources.

         I  have chosen not to include  information about ships which have

    not  appeared  onscreen.    Such  ships  includes  the ASCENSION-class

    dreadnaughts  (TOS?), STAR  EMPIRE-class dreadnaughts  (TOS), OLYMPUS-

    class dreadnaughts (TNG), and various other classes that have appeared

    in some reference manuals but never in the show.

         This  list  should  be accurate  up  to and  including  the fifth

    season,  and some of the sixth season.  For a more up-to-date yet less

    detailed  list, see D. Joseph Creighton's  "Star Trek Ships" list.  Of

    course, he and I don't totally agree on classification of all ships.


    DISCLAIMER

         All  entries are  based on the  best evidence available.   As new

    information becomes available the article will be updated.

         I  have no involvement with Paramount  Studios or the TNG office,

    nor  do  I have  special access  to information  not available  to the

    public.  All sources are documented as shown.

         I  do  not claim  to have  included every  ship mentioned  in the

    screened  Star Trek  universe.  If  you believe I  missed some "major"

    ships,  please write me at address/means below.   If I made a mistake,

    let  me know.  No one is perfect,  and I do make mistakes.  Thanks for

    Wmwn92a@aol.com for pointing out a mistake.  Somehow I mixed up Klaa's

    (ST5)  and Chang's (ST6)  Birds of Prey!   Also thanks  to Kevin Casto

    (pk115053@wvnvms.wvnet.edu) for providing the information from the 5th

    Season Writer's Guide for IDing some "lost" ship with no corresponding

    ship  class.  I cannot presume that the entire article is correct, but

    they are to the best of my ability.

    CONSTELLATION-class

      CONSTELLATION-class  cruisers  are  built  as  replacements  of  the

    venerable   CONSTITUTION-class  starships.    It  features  an  unique

    quadruple nacelle design, no secondary hull, and "thick" primary hull.

      (Speculation)  CONSTELLATION-class  were designed  to  be explorers.

    The  redundant nacelles allow  the ship to  achieve high warp factors.

    When  one  or more  nacelles  fail, emergency  control  programs could

    conceivably allow the ship to proceed at low warp to a repair facility

    with less than four nacelles working.


    CONSTELLATION, USS (NCC-???)

      Class ship, never shown.

    HATHAWAY, USS (NCC-2593)

      (TNG:"Peak  Performance")  CONSTELLATION-class  cruiser.    Built at

    Copernicus Ship Yards, Luna by Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems.  Abandoned

    at  unknown time, but later  retrieved for tactical combat simulation.

    Motto: "No matter where you go, there you are."


    STARGAZER, USS (NCC-2893)

      (TNGN:Reunion)  CONSTELLATION-class cruiser.

      (Misc  Background) Commanded  by Captain  Jean-Luc Picard,  the ship

    went  on  to  a  legendary  22-year  mission  unmatched  by  any other

    starship.   One  of Picard's  best friends,  Jack Crusher,  husband to

    Beverly Crusher and father to Wesley Crusher, was lost during Picard's

    command.   Picard had returned  Jack's body (or what's  left of it) to

    the grieving Beverly Crusher and Wesley Crusher.

      (TNG:The  Battle) Lost  in the Maxia  Zeta system  after engaging an

    unknown ship which fired first.  STARGAZER was heavily damaged and had

    to  be abandoned, but most crew  escaped in shuttles. The unknown ship

    was  later found  to be a  Ferengi Marauder, its  first sighting ever.

    The manuever Captain Picard used to defeat the hostile became known as

    the "Picard Manuever".

      (TNGN:Reunion)  Crew  includes  Idun  Asmund  (Helm),  Gerda  Asmund

    (Navigation),  Peter "Pug" Joseph  (Security), Carter Greyhorse (Chief

    Medical  Officer), Phigus  Simenon (Chief  Engineer), Gilaad  Ben Zoma

    (First  Officer), Tricia Cadwallader (Communications), Vigo (Weapons),

    Ensign Morgen, and Jack Crusher (Science?).


    VICTORY, USS (NCC-9754)

      (TNG:"Elementary, Dear Data", TNG:"Identity Crisis")  CONSTELLATION-

    class  cruiser, commanded by Captain  Zimbata.  LaForge had previously

    served on this vessel and visited Tarchannen while onboard.

         Last recorded mission "Stellar Nuclei Population Survey".


    ---------------------------------------------------------------------


    CONSTITUTION-class

      (TOSN: Final Frontier) CONSTITUTION-class starships are the

    result  of the  "Starship" project,  featuring the  first (Federation)

    dilithium-augmented  warp  drive  on a  starship  (sometimes  known as

    "fourth  generation" warp drive), and crew  of 220, later increased to

    450.   First built in 2245,  USS CONSTITUTION received the hull number

    of  NCC-1700, but before its  completion, major modifications prompted

    renaming  it to  USS ENTERPRISE, and  the registry  number became NCC-

    1701. It is classified as a heavy cruiser.

      (Conjecture)   It is possible that the  project came from a refit of

    an  older class of vessels.   USS CONSTELLATION appeared  to be of the

    CONSTITUTION-class  yet  have  a  registry  number  of  NCC-1017, much

    earlier.   USS REPUBLIC,  also of this class,  have registry number of

    NCC-1371,  both below  that of  the NCC-1700/1701.   REPUBLIC contains

    "atomic pile", indicated that it contains much older components.

      (Making of Star Trek) The ship is designed to have an 18-year

    range, carries crew of appox. 450.

      (ST:TMP)  In  year  2269,  StarFleet  decided  to  rebuild  the then

    mothballed  ENTERPRISE, which  had returned  from its  historic fourth

    Five-Year-Mission,  a feat  no other  starship has  accomplished.  The



                                  Page - 5







    Ships of Star Trek                                  Kasey K.S. Chang



    original  plans to scrap the ship after its return was scrubbed. Chief

    Engineer  Scott supervised the refit, with overseeing by Admiral Kirk,

    now  Chief of  StarFleet Operations.   The result is  a brand-new ship

    with  different design  than the previous  model. Official designation

    remains CONSTITUTION-class.  The ship entered service in 2271.

      The   "refit"  (more  like  rebuild)  was  applied  to  other  older

    CONSTITUTION-class vessels.  USS ENDEAVOR was next in line.

      (TNGN:Reunion)  CONSTITUTION-class  starships are  still  in service

    during  the  24th  century  (TNG).   One  of  them  is  USS LEXINGTON.

    (TNGN:Captain's Honor) Another would be USS CENTURION.


    CENTURION, USS (?)

      CONSTITUTION-class starship

      (TNGN:Captain's  Honor) The  ship is  fully crewed  by Magna Romans.

    The ship turned renegade when its captain violated the prime directive

    and was discovered by NCC-1701-D.  They have not reappeared since.


    CONSTELLATION, USS (NCC-1017)

      CONSTITUTION-class starship (refitted?)

      (TOS:"The Doomsday Machine") Commanded by Commodore Matthew Decker,

    entire  crew except Decker perished when  the planet they evacuated to

    was  destroyed by the  Doomsday Machine.   Decker (supposedly) piloted

    the crippled CONSTELLATION into the Doomsday Machine and activated

    self-destruct, destroying it and himself.


    DEFIANT, USS (NCC-???)

      CONSTITUTION-class starship.

      (TOS:"The Tholian Web") Ship lost in interdimentional rift, crew all

    dead from exposure to the "interphase" near Tholian border.

    ENTERPRISE, USS (NCC-1701-A)

      (TNG  Tech  Manual) Second  generation  CONSTITUTION-class starship,

    renamed from USS YORKTOWN, commissioned in 2286.

      (ST4:TVH)  Ship was given to the original ENTERPRISE crew after they

    saved  Earth from  the effects of  a giant alien  probe which demanded

    contact with humpback whales, long extinct on Earth.

      (ST5:TFF)  Ship was hijacked by Vulcan renegade Sybok, Spock's half-

    brother,  in his search  of God and  Paradise.  They  travelled to the

    Galactic Center, and ended up being chased by Klingons, battled a god,

    and accomplished narrow escapes. (c2286/87)

      (ST6:TUC)  Ship was ordered to  escort the Klingon Chancellor Gorkon

    and his party to a negotiation with Federation representatives. During

    the  voyage, ENTERPRISE supposedly fired a torpedo at the Chancellor's

    ship,  forcing Kirk to  surrender to his worst  enemies.  However, the

    Khitomer  Conference turned out to be a success after the saboteur was

    discovered.   The  conference had a  profound impact  on the political

    climate of this part of the galaxy for the years to come. The ship was

    heavily  damaged while engaging  Chang's Bird of  Prey OKRONA, and was

    ordered to be decommissioned by StarFleet.(c2293)

      The  ship  was  decommissioned  in  2294,  soon  after  the Khitomer

    Conference.  Montgomery Scott retired in disgust.

    EXCELSIOR-class

      (TNG Tech Manual) The EXCELSIOR-class were originally designed as an

    experiment  to test  the concept of  Transwarp, which proved  to be an

    abysmal failure during early 2280's.

      Despite  the failure of transwarp, the design was proven worthy, and

    was  manufactured  in large  numbers, after  the transwarp  system was

    replaced  with normal warp drive.   The ship was originally classified

    as a battleship.

      The  class served distinguished careers in several incarnations. USS

    EXCELSIOR, commanded by Captain Sulu, went on to establish a brilliant

    record.   The third  reincarnation of USS  ENTERPRISE, NCC-1701-B also

    took the form of an EXCELSIOR-class vessel.

      EXCELSIOR-class  vessels are  still in wide  use during  the time of

    NCC-1701-D (a.k.a. The Next Generation).



    AKAGI, USS

      (TNG:"Redemption  II"),  EXCELSIOR-class,  member  of  the  blockade

    fleet.

    ENTERPRISE, USS (NCC-1701-B)

      (TNG  Tech  Manual)  EXCELSIOR-class  starship,  built  at StarFleet

    Antares  Yards.  Putting the namesake on  a class of ship which failed

    was  not a popular decision, but  it went through nonetheless, and she

    went  on to establish a brilliant record  for itself.  This ship was a

    key figure in the exploration of space beyond the Gourami Sector.  The

    ship  and crew  were responsible  for mapping  over 142  star systems,

    APPENDIX: SOME PUZZLES AND POSSIBLE EXPLANATIONS


         There  so far are two naming mistakes in TNG/DS9.  In TNG:"BoBW1"

    MELBOURNE  was  identified  as  a NEBULA-class  starship  when  it was

    offered   to   Riker  to   command.     However,   in  DS9:"Emmissary"

    Novelization,  the EXCELSIOR-class  that died without  firing a single

    shot  was  identified as  MELBOURNE.   There is  NO indication  in the

    televised  version  which  ship  is  which.    Only  four  names  were

    mentioned,  and four ships shown.   I chose to ignore the novelization

    and used available evidence to match up the names to the ships.

         Of  the ships  on screen,  SARATOGA is  MIRANDA-class.   Of which

    remained,  one  is  EXCELSIOR-class,  one  AMBASSADOR-class,  and  one

    NEBULA-class.  The names mentioned are MELBOURNE, GAGE, and KYUSHU.

         The  NEBULA-class  ship therefore  must be  the MELBOURNE.   I've

    heard that KYUSHU, which was IDed as NEW ORLEANS-class, actually looks

    like  a MIRANDA-class (minor differences), which leaves the GAGE to be

    an  EXCELSIOR-class or the AMBASSADOR-class.   I picked the latter. [A

    quick  search through the dictionary showed Thomas Gage to be a famous

    British general in the American Revolutionary War, which still doesn't

    help, as Starfleet don't name ships according to class at all...]

         The  second naming  mistake was probably  a result  of bad detail

    research.   A first  season Okudagram (TNG:"The  Neutral Zone"), which

    listed  the  ships near  the  Neutral Zone,  listed  USS TRIESTE  as a

    YOSEMITE-class.   However, in  TNG:Realm of Fear,  we actually saw USS

    YOSEMITE, and it appears to be an OBERTH-class...

    first ship equipped with Transwarp, and is classified as a

    transwarp battleship.

      (TNG Technical Manual) Operational Failure of Transwarp in the early

    2280's  later led to a refit of the ship, replacing transwarp nacelles

    with regular warp engines.

    GALAXY-class

      (TNG  Tech Manual) Galaxy-class  began its life on  paper in July of

    2343,  when  the  official  start  for  the  project  is  approved  by

    StarFleet.   Six Galaxy-class starships are  planned, with six more as

    an  option.   So  far  only four  ships  have been  completed: GALAXY,

    YAMATO, and ENTERPRISE, and one unknown.

      (Estimation) There should be a fourth ship appearing in 2366/67, but

    it  was never seen.  Rumors had that  it was destroyed at the Wolf 359

    Massacre.   Since YAMATO  was destroyed in 2366,  that leaves only two

    active GALAXY-class vessels in service as of year 2368.  A new Galaxy-

    class starship should appear in 2369.


    ENTERPRISE, USS (NCC-1701-D)

      (TNG  Tech Manual)  GALAXY-class starship, built  at Utopia Planitia

    Fleet  Yards above Mars.  Commissioned on October 3rd, 2363, currently

    under command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard.


    GALAXY, USS (NX-76037) (NCC-76037?)

      (TNG  Tech  Manual) The  class-ship of  the GALAXY-class,  there are

    little information avialable on it, except it was launched in 2357.


    YAMATO, USS (NCC-71807) (NCC-1305-E)

      (TNG Tech Manual) The second of the GALAXY-class.

      (TNG:"Contagion")  Commanded  by Captain  Donald  Verley.   Ship was

    destroyed in a matter/antimatter explosion caused by an alien computer

    virus.   The emergency  shutdown was aborted  by the virus, destroying

    the ship.

      (TNG:"Where  Silence Has Lease") Made a ghost appearance as Worf and

    Riker transported over to the fake bridge.

      (Estimate) It was probably launched in 2360.

      Now why does this thing have two registry numbers?


    ???, USS (NCC-?????)

    MEDITERRANEAN-class


    LALO, USS

      (TNG:"We'll  Always  Have Paris)    (TNG:"Best of  Both  Worlds II")

    MEDITERRANEAN-class  freighter, presumed  destroyed by  the Borg after

    contact with it was lost.


    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    MIRANDA-Class

      There  are actually two generations  of MIRANDA-class.  The original

    MIRANDA-class  is a light cruiser.  Two of them were seen, USS RELIANT

    (ST2:TWOK)  and USS  SARATOGA (ST4:TVH).   This  model featured photon

    torpedo  launcher on an arch (anti-roll  bar?) above the primary hull.

    Overall,  it  resembled the  venerable tug,  with engines  beneath the

    saucer and no secondary hull.

      There were speculations that the arch was a later refit.  No comment

    was  available  from  StarFleet  Ship  Design  Bureau.    Some sources

    indicate  that the class was once known as AVENGER-class, but that was

    found to be incorrect.

      Modified  MIRANDA-class were  seen in  TNG.   They are  USS BRATTAIN

    (TNG:Night  Terrors) and  USS LANTREE  (TNG:Unnatural Selection). They

    are  virtually identical to the  original MIRANDA-class vessels except

    they  lack the arched  photon torpedo launcher  over the primary hull.

    The crew is also much smaller.

      (Speculation)  after introduction of the sentient main computer such

    as  the  model installed  on the  ENTERPRISE-D,  the crew  was greatly

    reduced  since the  ship can  almost take  care of  herself. Since the

    NEBULA-class  replaced the MIRANDA-class  as the light  cruiser of the

    fleet,   the  remaining  MIRANDA-class  vessels  were  converted  into

    scientific  research vessels for quiet area patrols, explorations, and

    surveys of frontier areas.


    (NOTE:  overall  MIRANDA-class  definition  came  from  TNG  Technical

    Manual.   Sources from  FASA claims RELIANT-Class  "light cruiser" for

    USS  RELIANT. TNG Ship  dedication plaques list  MIRANDA-Class for USS

    BRATTAIN   only.    Other  sources   lists  RELIANT  as  AVENGER-class

    "frigate".)


    BRATTAIN, USS (NCC-21166)

      (Ship    plaque)  MIRANDA-class,  built  at  40  Eridani-A StarFleet

    Construction Yards by Yoyodyne Division.  Commissioned SD 22519.5.

      (TNG:"Night  Terrors") Crew perished on SD 44631.2 after caught in a

    Tyken's  Rift, where the lack of REM  sleep (caused by a trapped alien

    ship)  caused widespread hallucination.  The crew committed suicide or

    murdered each other.  The only survivor was a Betazoid male.


    LANTREE, USS

      (TNG Tech Manual) MIRANDA-Class vessel, class 6 resupplier.

      (TNG:"Unnatural Selection") Commanded by Captain Iso Telaka, crew of

    26  perished  after visiting  the  Darwin genetic  research  colony on

    Gagarin  IV, attacked by the new "active" immune system.  The untested

    immune  system changed genes of the  cells in contacted, causing rapid

    aging  and death due to  old age. The ship  was cordoned off and later

    destroyed to prevent others from falling to the same fate.

    RELIANT, USS (NCC-2684)

      MIRANDA-class light cruiser.

      (ST2:TWOK)   Commanded  by  Captain  Clark  Terrell,  the  ship  was

    temporarily  assigned  to the  Genesis Project  team  in an  effort to

    locate a suitable system to began phase III of the Genesis experiment.

    During the search, it came upon Ceti Alpha V, where the ship was taken

    over  by  Khan  Noonian  Singh.    Khan  vowed  revenge  on  Kirk (see

    TOS:"Space  Seed") and attempted  to destroy Kirk  and the ENTERPRISE,

    but failed, destroying the ship in the process in the final detonation

    of  the Genesis device in the  Mutara Nebula, which became the Genesis

    Planet.


    SARATOGA, USS

      MIRANDA-class cruiser, registry unknown.

      (ST4:TVH)  While on patrol,  the ship was disabled  by a giant alien

    probe  which  drained  all  its  power.    Its  hailing  messages went

    unanswered.    Captain  ??? ordered  crew  into stasis  and  was later

    recovered without incident.


    SARATOGA, USS

      MIRANDA-class cruiser, registry unknown

      (DS9:"The  Emissary")  This ship, on which Ben Sisko served as first

    officer, was destroyed while engaging the Borg at Wolf 359.

      (Analysis) Some speculated that this may be the same ship as the one

    in  ST4:TVH, it is doubtful that the ship's framework will survive for

    80 years to be refitted and still serving on the front lines.


    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    NEBULA-class

      (Misc  Info)  First seen in TNG:"The Wounded", this appears to be an

    analogue  to the  GALAXY-Class like  the MIRANDA-class  RELIANT to the

    CONSTITUTION-class ENTERPRISE.  The warp nacelles are just beneath the

    saucer,  small secondary hull, and a  large photon torpedo launcher is

    mounted over the saucer.

      At  least  one   NEBULA-class ship  is also  seen in  REDEMPTION II,

    commanded by Lt.Cmdr Data: USS SUTHERLAND.


    MELBOURNE, USS

      NEBULA-class, registry unknown.

      (TNG:"Best  of Both Worlds")  Riker turned down its command, and the

    ship was destroyed at Wolf 359 by the Borg.

    PHOENIX, USS (NCC-65420)

      NEBULA-class.  Seen once in "Future Imperfect".

      (TNG:  The Wounded)   Captain Benjamin  Maxwell of  the USS PHOENIX,

    formerly  of the RUTLEDGE,  declared personal war  on the Cardassians,

    destroying several Cardassian vessels before ENTERPRISE caught up with

    him  and convinced him to  surrender. Evidence of Cardassians rearming

    for conflict was found, but peace was kept.


    SUTHERLAND, USS

      NEBULA-class, registry NCC-72015.

      (TNG: Redemption II)  Commander Data took command of USS SUTHERLAND,

    a  new and  untested ship,  as a part  of the  Klingon border blockade

    fleet under command of Captain Picard.  His exceptional leadership and

    innovative  tactics  exposed the  Romulan  supply convoy,  causing the

    convoy  to turn back, leaving  the Duras-faction without supplies, and

    turning the Klingon civil war to Gowron's favor.

    OBERTH-class

      OBERTH-class  vessels are scientific scouts that does the scientific

    research  after  the  explorers  charted the  worlds.    They  also do

    scientific surveys of phenomenons that does not require a major ship.

      While  no specific number of the crew  was given, it is estimated to

    be  around  50-150.   It  has minimal  armament  and defense.    It is

    outfitted with inboard warp engines, no exterior nacelles. It also has

    an unique two-tier design.

    VALIANT, USS

      (TOS:"A Taste of Armageddon") Lost near the Vendikar system.

      It is NOT a DAEDALUS-class, since this ship was about in 2217, while

    DAEDALUS-class  were all  decomissioned by  2196.   Suspect this  is a

    predecessor  of CONSTITUTION-class  (DECLARATION-class?) of  which the

    CONSTITUTION-class starships.
