''This page is for the lead ship of the ''Defiant''-class. For the 23rd-century ''Constitution''-class starship, see [[U.S.S. Defiant (Constitution class)]]''. {{NPCshipinfo | faction = Federation | prefix = U.S.S. | name = ''Defiant'' | image = {{PAGENAME}}.png | registry = NX-74205 | class = Defiant class | captain = Kira Nerys | captain2 = James Kurland | level = | pips = 2 | location = Minos Korva System | location2 = Deep Space 9 | location3 = Vega System | location4 = Sol System | status = Active (2410) }}{{Defiant}} The '''U.S.S. Defiant''' (formerly U.S.S. ''Sao Paulo'') is a {{FedEscort|Defiant}} and the successor to {{mAlpha|USS Defiant (2370)|the prototype}} that was originally launched in 2370 under the command of [[Commander]] [[Benjamin Sisko]], then-commanding officer of [[Deep Space 9]]. The prototype fought in the [[Dominion War]] and was eventually destroyed at the {{MAlpha|Second Battle of Chin'toka}}, after which the U.S.S. ''Sao Paulo'' was renamed and redeployed at DS9 shortly after its construction in 2375 in honor of the ''Defiant''. In [[2409]], [[James Kurland]] is in command of DS9 and the ''Defiant''. ==History== * Following the destruction of the original U.S.S. ''Defiant'' in [[24th Century|2375]], the U.S.S. ''Sao Paulo'' (NCC-75633) is launched from [[Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards]] and renamed U.S.S. ''Defiant''. It participates in the {{MAlpha|Battle of Cardassia}}, the final battle of the war. * [[2403]]: James Kurland is assigned to DS9, and takes command of the ''Defiant'' as well. * By 2409 the ''Defiant'' is still in service, and still assigned to DS9. ==Crew== [[File:Kurland Defiant bridge.png|thumb|260px|Cpt. [[Kurland]] on the bridge of the ''Defiant''.]] * [[Julian Bashir]] - Doctor (2371-2375) * [[Kira Nerys]] - Executive/Commanding Officer (2371-2375), Commanding Officer (2410) * [[James Kurland]] - Captain (2403- ) * [[Sarish Minna]] - Commanding Officer (2409) * [[Nog]] - Engineer (2374-2375) * [[Benjamin Sisko]] - Captain (2371-2375) * [[Worf]] - Executive Officer (2372-2375) ==Missions involved== * {{Mission|Assimilation of the Innocent||FED}}: The ''Defiant'' is part of a Starfleet task force that responds to a Borg invasion of the [[Vega System]]. * {{mission|Spoils of War||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'', under the command of Commander [[Sarish Minna]], helps the [[player]] defeat [[True Way Alliance]] forces in the [[Badlands]]. * {{mission|Jabberwocky||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'', again captained by Commander Sarish, comes to the player's aid when they are ambushed by True Way ships in orbit of [[Bajor]]. * {{mission|Second Wave||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'' helps evacuate DS9 during a rogue [[Jem'Hadar]] attack. * {{mission|Boldly They Rode||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'' leads the combined [[Starfleet]]-[[KDF]] fleet into the battle to retake DS9 from [[Kar'ukan]]'s forces. * {{mission|Midnight||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'' takes part in the defense of [[Earth]] when the [[Iconian]]s attack the [[Sol System]]. She assists the player in protecting the shipyards until the docked ships can disembark. * {{mission|The Search||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'', under the command of newly-recommissioned Captain [[Kira Nerys]], joins the player, [[Odo]], and [[Elim Garak]] on a mission to the [[Gamma Quadrant]] to investigate Hur'q activity. * {{mission|Doomed to Repeat||ALL}}: The Defiant joins Garak's fleet in supporting the player in the [[Masan System]]. * {{mission|Tenebris Torquent||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'', again under the command of Captain Kira, accompanies the player on a mission to investigate [[Havas-Kul]], the Hur'q homeworld. * {{mission|Home||ALL}}: The Defiant joins the defense of Empersa. * {{Mission|The Measure of Morality (Part 2)||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'' (or a simulacrum of it), under the command of Captain Sisko, along with several starships ''Enterprise'', the ''[[U.S.S. Voyager]]'', and the ''[[U.S.S. Discovery]]'', aid the player's ship in a battle against a renegade Excalbian Borg Queen simulacrum. * {{mission|Iuppiter Iratus||ALL}}: The ''Defiant'', along with ''Enterprise'' and ''Voyager'' are part of the defense team alongside players defending [[Jupiter Station]] from an attack by the Terran Empire from stealing data. ==Other involvement== * [[Lore Blogs#Season 5 Dev Blog #30|"Season 5 Dev Blog #30"]]: In a personal log, Captain Kurland mourns the death of [[Karen Andrews]] and prepares to lead the ''Defiant'' on its mission to retake Deep Space 9, with the cooperation of the Female Changeling. * [[Lore Blogs#Utopia Planitia Report 3|"Utopia Planitia Report 3"]]: The ''Defiant'' is docked at [[Utopia Planitia]] to repair the extensive damage inflicted in {{mission|Midnight}}. The vessel is further damaged in an explosion during the repairs, as well as a high-risk attempt to rescue a lost crewman. * [[Post War Era#"Back Channels"|"Back Channels"]]: Lukari Administrator [[Kuumaarke]] has been granted temporary command of the ''Defiant'' and sent on a diplomatic mission to the [[Na'kuhl System]] to offer to help the [[Na'kuhl]] re-ignite their star. The Na'kuhl refuse her offer, and she retreats from the system in accordance to their demands; however, she then has her crew re-enter the system under cloak to scan the star. Unfortunately, the scans determine that the fusion within the star has been permanently disrupted, and cannot be restored without [[Kal Dano]] or the [[Tox Uthat]]. ==Gallery== <gallery> File:USS Defiant top.jpg|Dorsal.

File:USS Defiant fore.jpg|Ditto. </gallery> ==Notes== * Before "[[The 2800]]", the ''Defiant'' in the Minos Korva System had the registry ''NCC-75633-C''. ** While indling in the [[Gamma Quadrant]] as part of [[Odo's Fleet]] while {{mission|Home}} is active, her registry is shown as '''''NCC'''-74205''. * As of [[Season Eleven: New Dawn]], the ''Defiant'' can now use tractor beams to ensnare enemy vessels during combat. She was also given a visual update to more closely resemble her on-screen appearance. * Following the Victory is Life expansion, the ''Defiant'' can be seen parked above Deep Space 9 (though is not moored at the docking ring as she was between missions in {{MAlpha|Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|the series}}). ==External links== {{MA Link|USS Defiant (2375)}} {{MB Link|USS Defiant (NX-74205) (II)}} {{Factionnav/Federation}} {{Canon}} [[Category:Federation Starships|Defiant, U.S.S.]] [[Category:Minos Korva System|Defiant, U.S.S.]] [[Category:Vega System|Defiant, U.S.S.]] [[Category:Deep Space 9|Defiant, U.S.S.]] [[Category:Federation Escort (Mob)s|Defiant, U.S.S.]]
