The Federation Starship USS Triumph (NCC-70852) is the second ship to bear the name. The first, an 890-ton Auk class minesweeper, was built at Seattle, Washington. Originally intended for transfer to the United Kingdom, she was taken over by the U.S. Navy while under construction. Commissioned in February 1944, she served in the Pacific during the rest of World War II, participating in the invasions of the Palaus, Ormoc Bay, Mindoro, Lingayen Gulf and the Ryukyus. After Japan's capitulation, Triumph supported occupation activities before returning to the United States late in 1945. She operated along the West Coast in 1946 and decommissioned at San Diego, California, in January 1947.
Triumph was recommissioned in February 1952 and was soon sent to join the Atlantic Fleet. During 1952-55, she made two deployments to the Mediterranean. Redesignated MSF-323 in February 1955, she again decommissioned in August of that year. In 1959, Triumph was redesignated MMC-3 in preparation for conversion to a coastal minelayer. In January 1961, after that work was completed, she was transferred to the Norwegian Navy, in which she served as Brage until 1978, where she was decommissioned and scrapped.
The current-day USS Triumph was built at Utopia Planitia, and is currently in orbit of Earth awaiting commissioning by her first crew. The Triumph is the 14th Galaxy class starship to bear the name, and construction on this ship began before the Dominion War in 2348. She had problems during building, in particular the gamma-welds of several structural members didn’t hold, and no one had found this out until final spaceworthiness testing years later. Unfortunately, this almost brought this ship back to square one, as most of it had to be dismantled in rebuilt. This is the reason her NCC # comes before the USS Yamato. Construction was complete on 15 January 2379, and hull number at commissioning will be NCC-70852.
