USS Sitak (2374)
USS Sitak hit (2374)
The USS Sitak was a Miranda-class Federation starship in the 24th century.
The Sitak was an active participant in the Dominion War. In 2374, the Sitak was part of the fleet assembled by Captain Benjamin Sisko for Operation Return.
During the battle, the Sitak and the Majestic escorted the USS Defiant as the ships attempted to break through the Dominion lines. It was damaged after being hit in the port nacelle by a particle weapon before finally being destroyed after taking a direct hit from a torpedo to its' saucer section. (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")
- The scene from DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels" depicting the destruction of the Sitak was later reused in the battle sequence from DS9: "What You Leave Behind".
- In the episode, the Sitak was shown without a registry number on the hull, along with many ships in the fleet, which is unusual for Federation ships. The reason why this is is unknown.
