The USS Manticore (initially NCC-93514 and NCC-97765, later NCC-93466) was a 25th century Federation starship, a Manticore-class heavy destroyer in Starfleet service in the 2410s decade.

Service history and disposition[]
The Starfleet Corps of Engineers developed the USS Chimera heavy destroyer under Project Lotus at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards in the 2400s. It was equipped with the Dynamic Tactical System, allowing the Chimera to transform between regenerative and tactical mode, and fire either tachyon inversion beams or a phaser lotus depending on configuration. (STO Issue 02: "USS Chimera")
The SCE developed the Manticore-class by refining the DTS technology. The Manticore was fitted with an enhanced DTS. It was launched in the year 2410. The prototype carried two registry numbers, NCC-93514 and NCC-97765. (STO website: The Iconian War: New T6 Veteran Heavy Destroyers)
The Manticore served with distinction during the Iconian War, under the command of Captain T'Moss M'Lyrr. At this time, its registry number was NCC-93514. (STO website: Jayce's Interstellar[1])
From that year onward, the Manticore represented its class in the Starfleet Shipyards Operations interface. NCC-97765 was emblazoned on its hull. (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
Khitomer Alliance flag officers in, or aligned with, Starfleet, deployed Manticore for missions around the galaxy's four quadrants as part of the four-quadrant strategy. (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock", admiralty system)
In 2411, soon after the shattering of the Klingon Empire, the Manticore, now a Chimera-class registered NCC-93466, was one of several ships listed on a docking chart at Earth Spacedock. (STO - House Shattered mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
