In the Kelvin timeline,[2] the USS Farragut[2] (NCC-1647[1]) was a Federation[2] starship, a Constitution-class[1] heavy cruiser[1] in Starfleet[2] service in the 2250s[2][1] decade. (TOS movie & novelization: Star Trek, TOS - Starfleet Academy novel: The Gemini Agent)
Service history and disposition[]
In 2255 the Farragut served as the flagship of Task Force Blue during Operation Titan Storm, the Zeta Fleet Training Exercise, with Cadet Viktor Tikhonov in command and Cadet James T. Kirk serving as first officer and head of security. Their foe in the training exercise was Cadet Marla Kerrigan, acting captain of the Constitution-class heavy cruiser USS Valiant and leader of Task Force Gold.
During the exercise, the Farragut was equipped with three squadrons of Tornado-class fighters. (TOS - Starfleet Academy novel: The Gemini Agent)
Kirk served a semester aboard the Farragut. (Star Trek Magazine Issue 171: "March 2013")
In the year 2258 the Farragut was part of a Federation fleet sent to investigate Vulcan while it was being attacked by the Romulan mining vessel Narada. Cadets Gerace and Nyota Uhura were assigned to the Farragut. In the hangar bay on Starfleet Academy, Uhura discussed her assignment with Commander Spock, who reassigned her to the USS Enterprise. Upon arrival at Vulcan, the Farragut, along with the rest of the fleet, was destroyed. Only the Enterprise survived, because it arrived late and was recognised, and spared, by Nero. (TOS movie & novelization: Star Trek)

In the prime universe, Lieutenant James T. Kirk served aboard the USS Farragut by 2257 after graduating from Starfleet Academy. (TOS episode: "Obsession")
