The New Orleans class USS Independence (Starfleet)
"A little revolution is good every now and then."

A New Orleans class Starfleet vessel, this Independence was commissioned in 2366 and saw service in the Dominion War. Having survived the war, it underwent a scheduled refit in 2379. The vessel then saw action in the Ithassa Region under the command of Captain Jessa Anassasi. The ship served with distinction in the region, recognised by Starfleet in part by the fact that Captain Anassasi was a Rear Admiral within 4 years of taking command. The vessel was destroyed in an attempted Gorn invasion of the region, being rammed into the Gorn vessel Emperor's Fang by Commander Mar in the climactic Battle of Deep Space 17 on 26th September 2383.
