USS Washita

Named after a river in the western U.S., the Washita was assigned to the USS Aerostar. The Washita's life was short-lived. She was used for Ensign Fresca's piloting lessons in early 2374 ("Penguin Dreams and Stranger Things" [VEX]), then a few months later was blown to pieces by a Federation starship under Maloxian control, with Hartley, Mirk, and Ford aboard ("The Salad of Vengeance, Part Two" [VEX]).
