The Yeager-type was an Intrepid-class variant which entered service in the Federation Starfleet in the 24th century.
The main production base for Yeager-type vessels was the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards in the Sol system, and several Yeager-type vessels were in operation by the mid-2370s. (DS9 reference: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual)
The prototype, USS Yeager, saw extensive action during the Dominion War, participating in the operation to regain control of Deep Space 9 from Dominion forces in 2374, and then serving as part of DS9's defense force for the remainder of the war. (DS9 episode: "Sacrifice of Angels")
