USS Excalibur
- For canon appearances, see USS Excalibur.
The USS Excalibur (NCC-26517) was an Ambassador-class Federation starship. In 2373, the Excalibur was involved in the Borg incursion, fighting in the Battle of Sector 001. The ship took heavy damage in the battle, and its captain, Morgan Korsmo, an old Academy classmate of Capt. Picard, was killed in the attack, his final actions securing the safety of the ship and crew. Following the destruction of the Borg Cube, the ship was taken to dry dock for repair and refit.
USS Excalibur-A
The USS Excalibur (NCC-26517-A) was a Galaxy-class Federation starship, commissioned in 2376, following the destruction of the former vessel to carry the name. The vessel was originally assigned to Captain Elizabeth Shelby, but was given to Mackenzie Calhoun upon his return to active duty.
Excalibur-A was a late model Galaxy design, described as a hot rod in terms of speed and armament (at the expense of some of the earlier Galaxy starships' civilian arrangements). Some new features built into this vessel include holographic communications and a primary hull (saucer) warp drive.
USS Trident
The USS Trident (NCC-31347) was another Galaxy-class starship, assigned in 2376 as Captain Shelby's second command following her tenure aboard the Exeter. When Shelby is promoted to Admiral, first officer Kat Mueller is given command and promoted to the rank of Captain. Andorian Commander Desma now serves as first officer.
