The UEES Paul C. Gerwald (UEE designation PCG-4101) is a second generation (Flight II) Aegis Hammerhead that also known as the famous "ghost ship". In 2818, the ship was separated from her unit and supply chain in 2818 during long-range reconnaissance in what was then believed to be Vanduul-occupied space. Suffering extensive damage to her navigation system and a total jump drive, the crew of the Gerwald spent eighteen months disconnected from the fleet before a passing explorer managed to scope their short-range beacon. The Gerwald’s story was adapted into a propaganda vid, “The Iron Will” although historians quickly noted the ship itself was played by a surplus Guine-class patrol ship.Template:RSI
