USS Susan B. Anthony is a Sovereign-class explorer assigned to Fourth Fleet Command for the transport of the fleet's senior leaders, including Fleet Admiral Teylas Ramar and Admiral Liam Dahlgren. It is currently under the command of Captain Paula Camarero. When not in use as a flagship, the Anthony undertakes general exploratory and patrol duties in the Mellstoxx Sector and often hosts cadet cruises for the Fourth Fleet Academy.

History

The Susan B. Anthony was one of several Sovereign-class starships ordered following the Dominion War as part of Starfleet's larger rebuilding process. Named after the noted suffragist, she was the first Starfleet vessel to bear the name. She was constructed at Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards and was one of the last starships to leave those yards before they were destroyed in 2385. Alongside her sister ship Yamato, the Anthony was pulled off of her shakedown cruise to secure the Sol system and provide aid in the immediate aftermath of the disaster.

Entering full service in the early part of 2386, the Anthony was initially assigned to patrols along the Romulan border, remaining there through 2390 following the collapse of the Romulan Star Empire to ensure that the chaos erupting on the Romulan side of the border stayed there.

In 2391, the Anthony was re-assigned to Starbase Bravo to support Fourth Fleet Command, beginning a long relationship with the Fourth Fleet that continues to the present day. Like many other ships of her class, the Anthony was a favored platform for transporting high-ranking flag officers to sensitive locations, and she participated in all of the major operations undertaken by the Fourth Fleet in the 2390s. Notably, she was used heavily by Rear Admiral Aubrey Seagraves during the Archanis and Echoes of the Tkon campaigns as her flagship. During the 2390s, she also hosted thousands of cadets during their midshipman cruises while conducting dozens of surveys and patrols in the Mellstoxx Sector.

As of 2400, the Anthony has most often been used to transport Admiral Liam Dahlgren, but remains available for other high-ranking members of the Fourth Fleet's senior staff, alongside the USS Caliburn.
