Service history and disposition[]
This vessel takes its name from the city of Berlin on the planet Earth's European continent, and is a successor to previous vessels that have borne the name, the Loknar-class USS Berlin (NCC-2731) and the Miranda-class USS Berlin (NCC-1658). (FASA RPG module: Federation Ship Recognition Manual; ST video game: Starfleet Command)
In the early 2350s, the Berlin and the USS Victorious escorted the Klingon insurgent vessel, IKS Tagh'rat, back to the Klingon border and handed them over to Klingon authorities. (TNG novel: Reunion)
In 2353, the Berlin was the first starship to respond to a Tholian attack on Starbase 311. The away team from the Berlin found only one survivor from the attack, Kyle Riker, who was transported to Starbase 84 for better medical care. (TLE novel: Deny Thy Father)
In 2364, the Berlin was assigned to patrol the Romulan Neutral Zone when they received warning that seven Romulan battle cruisers were approaching a starbase. The Berlin and the starbase was able to hold-off the attack, until the USS Enterprise-D arrived to force a Romulan retreat. (TNG episode: "Angel One")
In early 2367, the Berlin was performing another patrol of the Romulan Neutral Zone, alongside the USS Monitor. (TNG episode: "Brothers", et al.; ST video game: Captain's Chair)
When the Cardassians threatened to invade Minos Korva in 2369, the USS Aries, USS Sutherland and Berlin were all dispatched to the sector to assist the USS Enterprise-D. However, because the ships were three days away, the Enterprise was forced to find an alternative means of preventing the invasion. (Script of TNG episode: "Chain of Command, Part II")

Background[]
There exists the possibility that this is the same vessel as the 23rd century USS Berlin (NCC-2001), appearing in Starfleet Command II: Empires at War and Starfleet Command: Orion Pirates, since that vessel is of the same class. The difference in the registry number and the 70+ year interval might preclude this correlation with this canon Berlin. For the purposes of this wiki, the ships are listed as separate.
