The USS Excalibur (NCC-26517) is an Ambassador-class starship in service with Starfleet and the Federation in the 24th century.
In early 2368, while the vessel was in between 'official' captains, Commander William T. Riker briefly commanded the ship during the brief Klingon Civil War. Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge served as Riker's first officer.
Following the Klingon civil war, the Excalibur was assigned to Captain Morgan Korsmo as Commanding Officer 2368. Then Lieutenant Commander Elizabeth Shelby served as the ship's First Officer. Both Korsmo and Shelby previously served together in the same positions onboard the USS Chekov.
In 2369, the Excalibur stopped at Starbase Deep Space 9 before embarking on a diplomatic mission to Vigan Delta V. Later that year, the Excalibur encountered Borg Cube 45208 and a number of Excalibur personnel were assimilated, including Lieutenant Marika Wilkarah, who had served on Excalibur for just over a year.
IN 2373 Captain Korsmo was killed during the Battle of Sector 001 against the Borg. His last order to Commander Shelby was to see to the safety of all hands.
Following the vessel's refit, command of the Excalibur was given to Captain Mackenzie Calhoun, who was assigned to offer assistance and humanitarian aid to the residents of sector 221-G, the former Thallonian Empire.
After the fall of the Thallonian Empire that same year, command of the Excalibur was given to Captain Mackenzie Calhoun.
In early 2376, the Excalibur was destroyed in a warp core breach caused by a computer virus. The entire crew was able to escape except, presumably, for Calhoun.
