The USS Arcos

The USS Arcos was a Federation freighter that was in service during the mid-24th century. Tan Tsu served aboard the Arcos during the 2360s.

In 2367, the Arcos was destroyed by a warp core breach over Turkana IV. The ship's two-man crew survived in an escape pod, but landed on the war-torn planet where they were captured by the "Alliance" faction. They were later rescued by an away team from the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Legacy")

Background

The Arcos was seen very briefly before it exploded in "Legacy," but the model used to represent the ship was not identifiable.

According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia this vessel was a Deneva-class starship, with the registry NCC-6237.

The name probably comes from the 11th century emirate of Arcos in modern-day Spain.
