The USS Daran (NCC-3201) was a Federation starship, a Miranda-class cruiser in Starfleet service in the late 23rd century. (TOS - DC second series comic: "Going, Going...")
History and specifications[]
The Daran was active in the 2280s decade. It differed from the Reliant-subclass by lacking a rollbar and having a shortened primary hull. In addition, a pair of ventral pods extended beyond the aft end of the ship's hull. (TOS - DC second series comics: "Going, Going...", "... Gone!")
Around stardate 8490.7 in the year 2287, the Daran was part of a relief force under Admiral Stephanoff of the USS Exeter. Stephanoff's fleet traveled to Tau Gamma II in order to assist the USS Enterprise-A after Captain James T. Kirk had been captured by the notorious bounty hunter Sweeney. (TOS - DC second series comic: "Going, Going...")
The Daran battled Sweeney's ships alongside the Enterprise. Thankfully, Captain Kirk was able to engineer his own escape from Sweeney's ship and the battle was soon finished, with no damage or casualties aboard the Daran. (TOS - DC second series comic: "... Gone!")
