The USS Intrepid (NCC-74600) was a 24th century Federation starship operated by Starfleet.
In 2370, Commander Donald Kaplan, the ship's chief engineer, regularly engaged in power conversion efficiency contests with Geordi La Forge, chief engineer of the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Force of Nature")
In 2375, Commander Chakotay, under the alias Jason Hayek, infiltrated a Species 8472 terrasphere that was simulating Starfleet Command. Chakotay fabricated a story about just having been transferred from the Intrepid. Boothby was surprised to hear this, because he thought the ship was on a three-year tour patrolling the Neutral Zone. (VOY: "In the Flesh")
In 2379, the Intrepid was in Star Fleet Battle Group Omega, deployed in sector 1045 to counter the Reman threat. (Star Trek Nemesis)
This ship's class was identified by Production Designer Dave Blass, who also provided further confirmation of name and registry. [1]
