The USS Gorkon (NCC-40512) was a Federation Excelsior-class explorer in service to Starfleet in the 24th century. She had an illustrious service career. (ST roleplay module: Starfleet Operations Manual; ST roleplay module: Starships)

In the 2340s and 2350s, the ambitious Captain Alynna Nechayev forged her career aboard this starship during the Federation-Cardassian War and the Tholian War. (ST roleplay module: Starships)

In 2366, Admiral Alynna Nechayev, as the commanding officer of the 12th fleet, picked her former command as the flagship of the fleet. The Gorkon would fulfill this role for the next five years. (ST roleplay module: Starships)

In late 2369, the Gorkon was Admiral Alynna Nechayev's flagship for the task force that prepared for a possible renewed Borg invasion that year. (TNG episode: "Descent, Part I")

In 2371, Lieutenant Aiden Thorn was the science officer aboard the Gorkon. The Gorkon discovered a derelict vessel and Thorn went on the away team. He was injured in the mission and he suffers from memory loss from the incident. The Gorkon met with the USS Endeavour to drop him off. (DS9 novel: Saratoga)

In 2375, the Gorkon visited the planet Kropasar, on the pretense of attending a diplomatic meeting. In reality, Nechayev orchestrated, with the help of Captain Montgomery Scott, the theft of a captured Breen frigate from the Kropasar government. (SCE - What's Past eBook: The Future Begins)

The Gorkon was Esperanza Piñiero’s old post. (ST novel: Articles of the Federation)

The Gorkon was named for former Chancellor of the Klingon High Council Gorkon. See also: IKS Gorkon.
