USS Freedom (prototype)

The USS Freedom was a Federation starship and the prototype of the class. It was launched in 2361. 

The Freedom was part of the 268th Tactical Wing during the early months of the Dominion War. In early 2374, the Freedom was on patrol near the sector where the Klingon Third Battlegroup disappeared and joined an eight ship force to search for the missing Klingon fleet. After finding the Klingons frozen in time and about to be outflanked by a Jem'Hadar force the Freedom took part in seeding the battlefield with torpedoes and phaser blasts. ("Regression")
