The **USS *Uzaveh* (NCC-97503)** was an *Avenger*-class scale 4 destroyer commissioned by Starfleet in the early 25th century. Named for an old Andorian deity, the vessel was the fourth of its class and served with distinction in the Undine and Iconian Wars.

## Service history

After the successful completion of its trials in 2406, the USS *Avenger* officially entered service and Starfleet Command ordered an additional four space frames. The *Uzaveh*, second of these, was constructed at the Laikan Starfleet Shipyards and commissioned on Stardate 84217.2 with the Antaran, Captain Eedool Kahd, in command. The cruiser was assigned to Task Force 202 within Ktarn Fleet.

The *Uzaveh* was present at Starbase 234-Beskerm when the station came under attack in the opening volley of the Iconian War. During the battle, a *Baltim*-class raider attempted to ram into the cruiser's secondary hull. Lieutenant junior grade Horatio Ojediran, chief conn officer aboard the *Uzaveh*, managed to maneuver the starship to avoid the brunt of the attack, but the raider still struck and obliterated the port nacelle.

Though it survived the battle, and its crew received a unit citation, the *Uzaveh* required significant repairs. It put into the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards where it was refit to Mark II specifications. The cruiser reentered service in late 2410.

When the Third Klingon Civil War erupted in early 2411, Vice Admiral Sysary restructured the small units within Romulan Theater Command so they could operate semi-independently in order to more rapidly respond to threats. Tactical Squadron 514 was formed around the USS *Shenlong*, a *Buran*-class cruiser, with Captain Zhang D'Gesh as squadron leader. The *Uzaveh* was assigned to SQN-514 and primarily served a vanguard role.
