"We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time."

    —T. S. Eliot

Information

---

The Vindicator is an Explorer type starship on sector operations duty in the Beta Quadrant. With the destruction of the Discovery Class USS VINDICATOR-E, and the end of the Civil War, it was decided that a leaner, meaner version be created. As such, the Vindicator class was spawned having been designed b Rochelle Ivanova and Almar Dahe'el. Her frame was constructed at Cold Station Theta and fine tuning completed at Earth Space Dock under the ever watchful eye of her designers and Starfleet as a whole.

Current Mission

Deep space exploration within the unknown and lawless borders of Cheydinhall Sector under the command of Commodore Rochelle Ivanova and Commander Almar Dahe'el.

History

19th Century

In 1863 the USS Vindicator was a 750-ton steamer purchased by the US Navy and then used by the Union army during the American Civil War starting in 1864. The ship was primarily used as a ram gunboat performing patrol and reconnaissance duties along the Mississippi River.

She was decommissioned in 1865.

20th Century

Launched in 1984, this Vindicator was a Stalwart class Modified Tactical Auxiliary General Ocean Surveillance Ship for the United States Navy. Stalwart class ships were originally designed to collect underwater acoustical data in support of Cold war anti-submarine warfare operations in the 1980s.

The USS Vindicator was later transferred to the United States Coast Guard and became USCGC Vindicator. She was used as a mother ship for pursuit boats intercepting drug smugglers.

25th Century

The USS Vindicator has been the name of six Starfleet ships over the last 17 years. In 2401 the Vindicator was a Prometheus class starship (NCC-70314-A) assigned to Alpha Fleet. A year later the Vindicator name was given to an Akira II class starship (NCC-70314-B).

The Excalibur-class USS Vindicator

In 2407, after the switch to Beta Fleet, the Vindicator changed once again, this time becoming a new Excalibur class starship, a massive class of Explorer ships, and given a new registry number (NCC-78213-C).

In late 2410, the Vindicator was effectively destroyed in a battle with Vanguard forces. The superstructure was mostly intact but much of the hull and major systems destroyed. It was hauled back to Starbase Versailles to undergo a reconstruction. Six months later the new USS Vindicator launched (with the class designation Excalibur Refit) and a registry of NCC-78213-D.

Once the crew continued their mission of exploration, they made contact with the species known as Veraki, a pre-warp civilization according to the last reports. It turns out the Vindicator arrived just in time to witness their first successful warp flight.

In October of 2412, the crew of the Vindicator transferred to the newly commissioned USS Vindicator-E, a brand new Discovery class Deep Space Explorer.

In spring of 2416, the Vindicator rose from the ashes of destruction and welcomed her crew as a state of the art, and never before seen, Vindicator class vessel.
