Chaffeeedit

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

The Chaffee (NX-74205/01) was a Federation Chaffee-type shuttlepod assigned to the USS Defiant.

In late 2374, Benjamin Sisko, Miles O'Brien and Julian Bashir used the Chaffee to enter the atmosphere of a Class L planet to rescue Lisa Cusak. The use of the pod was preferred because its power systems did not utilize antimatter, and made it possible for the pod to survive travel through the exotic energy field surrounding the planet. (DS9: "The Sound of Her Voice")

[edit] Apocrypha

According to Deep Space Nine series of novels, the shuttle Chaffee survived the destruction of the Defiant at the Second Battle of Chin'toka in 2375, as it was mentioned being assigned to the replacement Defiant also.

The Mission Gamma storyline novel Cathedral, describes the Chaffee as being labeled "NX-74205", the registry of the previous Defiant, confirming that the shuttle was the same one from the previous ship.
