__NOEDITSECTION__
The USS ''Yeager'' is a starship in service as a testbed for new and experimental Tactical and Propulsion systems. The USS ''Yeager'' is named for Chuck Yeager, the first Human to break the sound barrier in level flight.
==History==
Construction of the ''Yeager'' began in the early 2370s in the prelude to the [[Dominion War]]; with the breakdown of the [[Khitomer Accords]], Star Fleet needed new combat-capable ships, and fast. With shipyards already constructing ships at a increased rate, primary hull construction for the Intrepid-class vessel soon outstripped supply of secondary hulls. As war loomed, the [[Star Fleet Corps of Engineers]] decided to utilise the surplus primary hulls to cobble together a class of ship designed to bolster the fleet quickly. As one of the first members of the "Frankenstein Fleet", the ''Yeager'' was commissioned in 2374 and assigned to [[Deep Space Nine]] as a guard ship.
The ''Yeager'' served honorably during the war, and survived until the end of hostilities. Though the remaining ships of similar construction were either cannibalised for parts to repair main-line vessels, the SCE kept the Yeager for their own purposes. The ''Yeager'' was used to test several new tactical and propulsion systems, and was one of the first ships to be armed with the experimental Type-G Phaser in the run-up to the [[First General War]], and served as a guard ship for several outposts during the conflict.
As the 25th century progressed, the ''Yeager'' remained in service despite her age. Her primary hull was replaced with that of an updated design, and her internal systems overhauled and upgraded in order to continue to operate the newest technologies. As the first ship equipped with the new Thrawn-type warp cores, the ''Yeager'' was instrumental in troubleshooting and calibrating the new technology to integrate it with current systems with minimal issues. Following the first successful test of the [[Quantum Slipstream Drive]] aboard the [[USS Spirit]] in which she acted as an observer and guard ship at the test site, the ''Yeager'' was the next ship outfitted with the experimental drive.
