Background
This ship was not specifically mentioned, but was listed in several starship status charts seen on the sets in the movie. Its connection with the Whorfin-class starships has never been confirmed, but it is conceivable (based purely on their similar registry numbers and the period in which these vessels are known to have operated) that that class of ships was named for this USS Whorfin. It may have also possibly been the prototype for that class.
The name of the ship and class may come from Lord John Whorfin, a character in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension.
