USS Bowie

For other uses, see Bowie.

The USS Bowie (NCC-597) was a 23rd century Federation starship in Starfleet service.

Service history and disposition[]

Proposed Hermes-class configuration.

Bowie, with registry number NCC-597, was authorized for construction as a Mk VII Hermes-class class I scout by a Starfleet appropriation on stardate 0965 by the early to mid-2260s decade. (ST reference: Star Fleet Technical Manual)

Bowie was in service as an Akula-class scout in the 2280s and 2290s, initially equipped as a standard scout (SC). (ST video games: Starfleet Command II: Empires at War, Starfleet Command: Orion Pirates)

It is not clear if Bowie was ever built to the original Federation scout specifications, as the SFTM only notes it was authorized. It is possible it was built as a Hermes-class vessel and then refit, or that the plans were cancelled and/or altered to make way for the ship commissioning of the Akula-class.

This vessel had the capability of being modified for service as an advanced scout (SC+ in the Monoceros-subclass series). (ST video games: Starfleet Command II: Empires at War, Starfleet Command: Orion Pirates)

No history or definitive fate is established for this vessel as its name was randomly selected for a scout by the SFC games' software.
