The USS Yorktown (NCC-61137) was a Zodiac-class Federation starship in service during the late 24th century.
In 2369, while under the mind control of interrogators on Tilonus IV, Commander William Riker believed that he met a woman named "Commander Bloom," who was first officer of the Yorktown, at the Tilonus Institute for Mental Disorders. (TNG: "Frame of Mind")
The Yorktown traveled from Theta Omicron IV to starbase Deep Space 9 on stardate 47550.1, under the command of Captain H. Zimmerman. (DS9: "Whispers")
The Yorktown later participated in the Federation's war against the Dominion beginning in 2374. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 1: The Ships of Starfleet)
- According to Starbase23.net, the Yorktown was destroyed the following year at the Battle of Cardassia.
A Sovereign-class Yorktown was launched as a replacement in 2376, bearing the registry NCC-90276. (Decipher Games: Starships)
- In the anti-time future created by Q, this Yorktown was still in service in 2395, assigned near the border with the Klingon Empire. Admiral William T. Riker informed retired Ambassador Jean-Luc Picard that he would have the Yorktown run long-range scans in the Devron system. (TNG: "All Good Things...")
