USS Muroc

The USS Muroc was a Federation starship, in Starfleet service in the 2250s decade. 

Service history
During the Federation-Klingon War of 2256, the USS Muroc, USS Gagarin (NCC-1309) and USS Hoover patrolled the same sector. After Kol, leader of the House of Kor, disseminated cloaking technology among Great Houses allied with him, the Klingons ambushed all three ships in this sector simultaneously in November 2256. The loss of all the three Federation starships patrolling the sector resulted in 462 Starfleet casualties.
