USS Accord (NCC-1842)

USS Accord (NCC-1842) was a tactical frigate on active duty in Starfleet during the 23rd and 24th centuries. 

Accord was launched in October, 2256, along with other Soyuz-class starships (: "Year One"). Nearly seven years later, Accord would be lost while on a classified mission. One of its command bases during this time was Starbase 25.

In April of 2292, the Accord was found by the dreadnought USS Konkordium (NCC-2106). There was major damage to all systems, but the spaceframe remained intact. The logs made it clear that the attacker "was a) more advanced (but not much) and b) no one [the Federation had] encountered before." Months later, Starfleet Intelligence deduces that the same civilization that attacked Accord had attacked the perimeter action ship USS Arauca (NCC-1029) in 2289. That civilization was the Cardassian Union.

Over 14 months later, after refit at Ohio Orbital Shipyards, the Accord began its alpha shakedown cruise. It is commissioned in the fall of 2293, with Captain Anbinder taking formal command of Accord. Accord is then launched for a beta shakedown cruise with all crew except its marine strike group.

Following this period, Accord embarked on a mission on the far side of Klingon space. (: "Within the Belt")

In July, 2294, a contingent from the Accord, conveyed aboard its shuttle Hammarskjöld, attended the funeral of a Starfleet colleague at Starbase 29. (: "Belonging")

A wargames exercise between the fighter squadrons of Space Station Shadowstar, USS Lexington, USS Avenger (NCC-1860), and the Accord was scheduled to take place in May of 2295. Other ships, including USS Thagard (NCC-652), were to be present as observers. A task force of Tholian vessels attempted to attack the station, but was thwarted. The exercise is rescheduled to October.

In June the Accord made formal contact with ch'Rhailan, a colony of Romulan Unificationist refugees.

In 2296, two officers from the Accord traveled to Shadowstar Station for a ceremony attended by the crews of more than three dozen starships. (: "Pomp and Circumstantial Evidence")

An Accord officer from the 2290s or 2300s (prior to 2308) went back in time to 1978 to prevent the assassination of of San Francisco. The officer's shipmates pursued him and prevented him from interfering with the timeline. (: Timeline; : "City on the Edge of California")

In mid-2304, Accord continued to operate beyond the Storm Line, in the New Colonies territories. (: "To Everything There is a Season")

771st Marine Strike Group
The 771st Marine Strike Group embarked on Accord were known as the Smilin' Piranhas. It is not known which came first, the group appellation or the nickname for the fightercraft that they flew.

Shuttle and auxiliary craft inventory
On its launch in 2256, Accord had three Class E shuttlecraft, Braal, Winath and Titan. A aquashuttle, Vathlo Island, was added in 2260.

Two squadrons of fighters -- Merah Squadron and Putih Squadron -- were embarked on Accord from 2256  until its disappearance in 2263.

After its rediscovery and refit in the 2290s, Accord had at least three shuttles, the Kissinger, the Camp David and the Hammarskjöld.
