Background[edit | edit source]
Named for Chuck Yeager, the first Human to break the sound barrier. No history or fate is established for this vessel in SFC III as its name was randomly selected for a frigate vessel by the game software. The Star Trek Encyclopedia published the incorrect registry "NCC-81947" for this vessel.
