The USS Ranger (NCC-1750) was a 23rd century Federation starship, the tier 6-rated Ranger-class temporal battlecruiser in Starfleet service from the 2270s to the 2410s decades. (STO video game: Agents of Yesterday)
Service history[]
The Ranger entered service at some point before the year 2270. The Ranger was the prototype of the Ranger-class and designed to resolve situations through combat. Thus, the Ranger and its sister ships were often found on the Klingon and Romulan frontlines.[2][3] (STO video game: Agents of Yesterday)
In 2268, two days after visiting Tau Omega, the USS Enterprise rendezvoused with the Ranger. (TOS - FASA RPG short story: "Planetfall")
In 2270, the Ranger was part of the Federation fleet engaging the Klingon Empire at Caleb IV. The Klingons emerged victorious and drove Starfleet away, but the sacrifice of one Federation starship allowed the Federation fleet to escape the Battle of Caleb IV, including the Ranger. (STO - Agents of Yesterday mission: "The Battle of Caleb IV")
During the Temporal Cold War in 2410, the Ranger was upgraded to current technological standards and relaunched as the prototype for the tier 5 Ranger-class temporal battlecruiser. (STO - Klingon War mission: "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
Following the Iconian War in 2410, the Ranger was assigned to the long-lost and newly recovered K class space station Deep Space Station K-13, patrolling the immediate area of the 20 Draconis system. (STO episode: "Reckoning")
From 2410 onwards, the Ranger represented its class on the shipyards interfaces operated by New Romulus Shipyards, Klingon Defense Force Order of Builders and Starfleet Shipyards Operations at Khitomer Alliance facilities across the Milky Way Galaxy. (STO - The Iconian War missions: "Explore the Flotilla", "The Hunt is On", "Welcome to Earth Spacedock")
Flag officers of the Alliance could deploy the Ranger alongside other spacecraft for assignments across the galaxy's quadrants as part of Operation: Delta Rising's four-quadrant strategy. (STO - New Dawn mission: "Admiralty System")
The 26th century Paladin-class temporal battlecruiser was based on the Ranger design. (STO video game: Agents of Yesterday)
