The '''USS ''Armstrong-A''''' was a {{c|Constitution}} Refit Class vessel. Her name pays tribute to the historical [[Armstrong Class]] of vessels that were early expplorers. The Armstrong-A was well known for being a border patrol ship which fought against the Klingons in the historical battle of Kraxin IV, and later went on to forge peace with the Klingons 8 months after the Khitomer accords when they prevented a rogue Starfleet officer from stealing a Klingon cloaking device. She was decommissioned in 2320; but became the subject ship of a popular melodramatic holoprogram series entitled "Tales of the Borderzones" by Forsythe Historical Holonovel Productions | The '''USS ''Armstrong-A''''' was a {{c|Constitution}} Refit Class vessel.

"[[Piracy on the High Stars]]" is the first chapter that loosely re-enacts the mission to prevent spies from stealing a Klingon cloaking device. | "[[Piracy on the High Stars]]" is the first chapter that loosely re-enacts the mission to prevent spies from stealing a Klingon cloaking device. |
