USS Korolev (NCC-2014) was a Federation starship in the late 23rd century.
In 2293, the Korolev was assigned to an undisclosed diplomatic mission near Klingon territory during the time Operation Retrieve was proposed. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
According to a ship listing included in the plans, and not seen in the extended cut of the movie, this ship was commanded by J. Downer, and the ship was located in Sector 21399. On a page seen in the movie, showing the relation of Starbase 24 to Rura Penthe, the Korolev was represented by a Template:ShipClass heavy cruiser. The ship's captain may have been named after the sixth movie's art production assistant John Downer.
Background
The Korolev was not mentioned in dialog, but was listed on a display screen on the bridge set. While not official sources, both Last Unicorn Games and Decipher RPG supplements state that this vessel may be a Template:ShipClass starship.
It is unclear if this ship is related to the Template:ShipClass which was employed during the 2360s.
According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, this starship is named after the Russian scientist and engineer Sergey Korolyov.
