The '''USS Tiger''' was reassigned from patrol duty near Earth to Starbase 118 on stardate 237808.31. One of only a few [[ma:Steamrunner_class|Steamrunner]] Class ships, the ship was to undergo an experimental overhaul to investigate the feasibility of updating the class and launching a new subclass of Search & Rescue ships. After a six-month tour of testing and design, the Tiger was commissioned for refit by [[Wolf, Tristan|Admiral Wolf]]. Once completed, it became the prototype for the new [[Steamrunner-Wolverine class]] vessel, and now serves in the expected S.A.R. capacity for StarBase 118. | [[Image:Steamrunner002.jpg|250px|left|USS Tiger]] The '''USS Tiger''' was reassigned from patrol duty near Earth to Starbase 118 on stardate 237808.31.

The Steamrunner class, although normally being categorised as [[Starfleet Starships: Escorts|escort]] ships, join the [[ma:Defiant_class|Defiant]] class ships as being amongst Starfleet's most powerful military vessels. At Wolf 359, the USS Steamrunner (which was still not fully built, and was operating at around 40% efficiency) showed its might against the [[ma:Borg|Borg]], scratching up several important kills. The success of the vessel so impressed Starfleet Command, that they immediately drew up plans to build three more Steamrunner class ships: the Tiger, the Horatio and the Yamato. | The Steamrunner class, although normally being categorised as [[Starfleet Starships: Escorts|escort]] ships, join the [[ma:Defiant_class|Defiant]] class ships as being amongst Starfleet's most powerful military vessels.
