The USS Yamaguchi (NCC-26510) was an Ambassador-class Federation starship that was in service during the latter half of the 24th century.
In 2367, the Yamaguchi participated in the battle against the Borg at Wolf 359. It engaged the attacking Borg cube, alongside the USS Bellerophon, at the time the cube had tractored the USS Saratoga. It was ultimately destroyed in the battle along with 38 other starships. (DS9: "Emissary")

[edit] Background
The name Yamaguchi literally means "mountain mouth" in Japanese. The name is also a prefecture in Japan, as well as a common Japanese surname.
The Yamaguchi was the final appearance of the Ambassador-class studio model. Two of the ship's decals remained on the starship to this day. [1]
