Service history and disposition[]
The Federation was founded in 2161, and United Earth's Starfleet was incorporated into the new Federation Starfleet. The Tyson received the USS prefix and was given to Captain Sporik, a Vulcan and veteran of the century-long[3] conflict between the Andorian Empire and Vulcan.
With new NX-class ships in production, Starfleet launched a tactical training program for two new captains, Sporik and his Andorian counterpart Shrun of the USS Avenger (NX-09). Before the training began, the Avenger was in orbit of Lamda Paz. The ship's chief engineer reported in his log entry that programming the tactical exercise into the computer was successful but that there was concern about a resurfacing of the old rivalry between Shrun and Sporik.
During the exercise, an ion storm confused the sensors of both NX-class ships during their combat maneuvers among asteroids. Shrun became paranoid and suspected Sporik attacking Avenger for real. His crew could not differentiate between phaser fire and effects from the ion storm, but it was up to them to convince Shrun from assaulting the Tyson.
