The USS Dropzone was a Defiant class Federation starship re-launched in 2390 after its predecessor class was destroyed by divergent-Hirogen. It was assigned to Task Force Epsilon, home based at Starbase 55. (Star Trek: Phoenix-X)

History

Proteus-class

Before being Defiant-class, the Dropzone was a Proteus-class ship. The Dropzone was one of the stronger ships in Flame Squad assigned to the Flortarios sector to protect against the Dominion. ("The Bajoran Trove")

In 2375, the squad captains, including Samya, were suddenly captured and made hostages at the welcoming reception on Flortarios III. ("The Bajoran Trove") In the same year, the Dropzone took part in protecting the Earth during its crisis with the Trozonian. ("Bio Level 4") Not long after that, the ship served as a personal transport for Admiral Theseus to complete his own mission. ("Deal")

Shortly after the Dominion War, the ship was assigned to deep space missions. ("Loyalties, Part I")

In 2390, this class of the ship was destroyed by divergent-Hirogen. Crew that escaped using the Chaffee-type shuttlepods Edward and Tengu rondesvoused with the Phoenix-X to warn of the threat. The shuttles would eventually join the Phoenix-X. ("Into Harshness")

Defiant-class

In 2390, after the ship was launched in vein of its predecessor's destruction, the Dropzone joined the Tsunami in the Gamma Hydra sector to fix a communications relay. They were then convinced by the Phoenix-X to join them in an attack against the Hirogen. During the battle with the Hirogen, the Dropzone would manoeuvre in circular patterns. They would eventually be knocked offline and left adrift. ("Into Harshness")

Registry

Due to an error in the database during the divergent-Hirogen attacks in 2390, several second-launched starships (in their namesakes) received new registries. ("Into Harshness")

This meant they did not append a letter (example: an "-A") to the name, as the new ships were launched as a restart in their own series.
