About
• Fourth Fleet
The Hephaestion was an Excelsior-class starship first launched in 2343 which served in Starfleet until her destruction in 2399. During this fifty-year career, the Hephaestion served with distinction in the Federation-Cardassian War and the Dominion War, but was primarily a ship of exploration. Although decommissioned in 2386, then-Rear Admiral Jonathan Knox had her put back to service in 2393 as his flagship.
