The Renowned Vindicator the majority of it’s early career raiding Klingon targets and infiltrating secure areas to gather intelligence. In 2333 the Vindicator was recalled for an upgrade, increasing it’s shield system and replacing it’s primary torpedo.
Several of the Vindicator’s distributors were damaged in 2338 and the ship was again recalled for repairs and improvements. Relaunched later that year, the Vindicator returned to the Romulan-Klingon border and was part of the task force that attacked a number of border outposts in 2344.
The Vindicator was later assigned to the first wave to strike Dominion-Cardassian targets follow the Star Empire’s entry into the Dominion War. The Vindicator was destroyed in 2375 after being attacked by multiple Jem’Hadar ships.
