The USS Eagle (NCC-956) was a Constitution-class heavy cruiser on active duty in Starfleet in the 23rd century. (Star Fleet Techical Manual, Ships of the Star Fleet, vol. 1 [revised])
- The Star Fleet Technical Manual gives Eagle's registry as NCC-1719, while the display in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country has it as NCC-956. Orion Press posited that the ship was not Constitution-class but Leonidas-class.
Captain Igrilan commanded the Eagle from 2247 to 2268. During this time its all-Andorian crew would become the "the most decorated starship in Starfleet". (Last Unicorn Games RPG: Andorians: Among the Clans, Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era; Decipher RPG: Starships)
In 2269, Captain Zach Banner took command of the Eagle. One week after the launch under captain Banner the Eagle was briefly taken over by Zach Banner’s counterpart and taken to the mirror universe but was able to successfully return to it’s own reality.
One month later in 2270 the Eagle picked up a distress single from the USS Bismarck. Once the dreadnought was located they found an alien computer had killed its crew. Banner was able to beam over to the ship, destroy the computer and bring it back to a nearby starbase.
Banner would step down as the Eagle’s captain in 2273. (Star Trek: Eagle)
In 2273, the Eagle was refitted. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era)
In 2293, Eagle was conducting a colony re-supply mission in Sector 22858, under the command of Katy Garretson.. Had an assault code-named Operation Retrieve taken place to rescue USS Enterprise-A's Captain James Kirk and Doctor Leonard McCoy from Rura Penthe, Eagle would have been part of the task force. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
The Eagle was decommissioned in 2296. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era)
