TCS Lexington (Ship)

The TCS Lexington is the 11th ship in history to bear the name.

The Lexington had only a partial air group during the Kilrathi assault on Earth and it was decided to use her as a decoy to attract attention away from other Confederation vessels. Heavily damaged and almost completely gutted, she nonetheless survived.

Colonel Blair was assigned to the vessel in 2673 which by this time was under the command of his friend Captain William Eisen, former C.O. of the TCS Victory.

By this time, the Black Lance group had a detachment onboard under the command of the genetically engineered pilot Seether, and Eisen was relieved of his command by Fleet Captain Hugh Paulsen.

When Eisen attempted to defect to the Border Worlds, pilots from the Lexington were sent in pursuit, but due to Blairs defection along with some of his wing, the attackers were beaten back. Later on, the Lexington was disabled by Leech technology.
