U.S.S. Ajax NCC-11574
In 2327, the Apollo class Starship Ajax, commanded by Captain Narth, was Ensign Cortin Zweller‘s first assignment after his graduation from Starfleet Academy.[1] In 2364, Starfleet propulsion specialist Kosinski tested an experimental warp drive upgrade on the Ajax, although it was later discovered that Kosinski’s theories were baseless.[2] In 2368, the Ajax served as part of the tachyon detection grid, part of the Federation blockade against Romulan interference during the Klingon civil war.[3]
Named for two heroes from Greek mythology who fought in the Trojan War, Ajax of Salamis and Ajax of Locris.
