Hanson's starship was a Federation starship commanded by Admiral J.P. Hanson before and during the Battle of Wolf 359 in 2367. From this starship, he coordinated the mobilization of an armada for engaging Locutus' cube.
Later, he transmitted a message to the USS Enterprise-D informing them the battle was not going well and that he was ordering for the fleet to withdraw and regroup at a rendezvous point. Before the location was revealed, the transmission ended abruptly. (TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Part II")
According to the script for this episode, Hanson's ship was a Galaxy-class starship. He was seen in the ship's ready room and battle bridge. It is stated in the script that the ship was in battle when the final transmission was sent to the Enterprise-D. [1]
In Star Trek Online, Hanson's ship - the Galaxy-class flagship leading the fleet - is identified as the USS Columbia (NCC-71102) (β). [2]
