| 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 explorers. She was commissioned in 2288, twenty years after the destruction of the original USS Armstrong. | | The '''USS ''Armstrong''''' was the prototype [[Armstrong Class]] vessel. She was destroyed in 2258 while responding to a distress call. |

| 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 2340; but became the subject ship of a popular melodramatic holoprogram series entitled "Tales of the Borderzones" by Forsythe Historical Holonovel Productions

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

| | |
| The USS Armstrong-A would be succeeded by the USS Armstrong-B, an Challenger class starship that was ambushed in the Federation-Klingon war of 2373 and sustained heavy damage.
