USS Vallejo (NCC-75586) is a California-class Federation starship currently assigned to Fourth Fleet's Task Force 47. She is currently under the command of Commander Day Renora.

Launched Stardate 45703.1 (14 Sep 2368), the Vallejo served under several capable commanders. However, after years of distinguished service, the ship was decommissioned and mothballed in 2396 due to changing fleet requirements and modernization initiatives.

In 2401, following the shocking Borg attack during Frontier Day celebrations and the infiltration by Changelings, Starfleet faced a dire need for experienced vessels.  The Borg attack and Changeling infiltration shook Starfleet to its core. Many experienced officers were lost or compromised, and the majority of the fleet suffered damage, leaving a leadership vacuum.

The 33-year-old Vallejo was recommissioned after a thorough refit to make her space worthy once again and put back into service, focusing on the Pathfinding Operations of Task Force 47 of the Fourth Fleet, and supporting Task Group 13 in utility functions, supply missions, and diplomatic endeavors throughout the region.  Led by her new Captain, Commander Day Renora, and her untested crew, the Vallejo moves into the sector to begin her assignment. Captain Day is the seventh officer to command the vessel and has a legacy of service to the fleet to live up to.

As a symbol of Starfleet’s commitment to peaceful exploration and cooperation, the Vallejo represents the unyielding pursuit of knowledge, diplomatic relations, and the continual quest for understanding in this universe teeming with wonders.

Configuration

Main Article: California-Class Utility Cruiser

The Vallejo employs the standard command variant California-Class configuration used during its production in 2368. One notable exception is decks one and two. The bridge of the USS Vallejo was heavily modified during her 2401 refit, having lost most of her original first two decks due to damage from a plasma storm. Most components were taken from the USS T'Varra, an early Nebula-Class vessel mothballed at Providence Fleet Yards.

Typical of Starfleet vessels of that era, the bridge features a central command seating area featuring chairs for the captain, executive officer, and one other officer as missions dictate. Forward of the command area are found stations for the tactical on the starboard, and science on the port side of the bridge. Forward of those stations are found stations for the conn officer on the starboard, and operations officer on the port side.

Directly behind the command area is one large auxiliary station that can serve multiple officers as needed. At the rear of the bridge lies two standing stations, engineering on starboard, and an auxiliary tactical/security port. The aft center of the bridge is dominated by a master systems display, and fore by a standard viewscreen. Additional standing stations including mission ops, environmental controls, and replicators are recessed port and starboard.
