USS Buran (NCC-1422)

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

Service history
About a month after stardate 1207.3 (May, 2256), Captain Gabriel Lorca had to scuttle the Buran to prevent the capture of the ship and its crew by the Klingon Empire during the Federation-Klingon War of 2256. Lorca was the only survivor. 

In December 2256, Harry Mudd reminded Lorca about the inglorious loss of the Buran to drive a wedge between the captain and Lieutenant Ash Tyler. Tyler, however, was not so easily manipulated.
