The USS Farragut (NCC-60597) was a Nebula-class Federation starship in operation during the late 24th century.
In 2371, the Farragut helped recover the crew of USS Enterprise-D from Veridian III, following the explosion of warp core in engine section and forced crash-landing of its saucer section. (Star Trek Generations)
Two years later, during the Federation-Klingon War (2372-73), the Farragut was sent to assist the colonists of Ajilon Prime, who had came under attack by the Klingons. En route, however, the ship itself was attacked by Klingons and was destroyed near the Lembatta Cluster. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")

[edit] Appendices
[edit] Background
Several publications, including the Star Trek Encyclopedia, have mistakenly stated that the registry of the Farragut was NCC-60591, however the studio model, shown in Star Trek: The Next Generation Sketchbook: The Movies clearly reads "60597."
This ship may have been named after David Farragut, a notable American admiral.
The Farragut was transformed into one of the many Star Trek Micro Machines models, one of the few non-hero ships to receive the honor.
[edit] Apocrypha
In the opening pages of the William Shatner novel The Return the Farragut was described as being destroyed by a Romulan warship over the planet Veridian III.
