The initial Valiant jet bomber prototype was lost due to an in-flight engine fire in January 1952, all the crew escaping safely except for the co-pilot, who struck the tail after ejecting and was killed.
A Valiant B.1 of 49 Squadron was the first RAF aircraft to drop a British operational atomic bomb, performing a test drop of a downrated "Blue Danube" weapon on Maralinga, South Australia, on 11 October 1956.
Valiants were originally assigned to the strategic nuclear bombing role, carrying either British-built weapons such as Blue Danube, Yellow Sun, and Red Beard, or US-supplied weapons under a "dual key" arrangement.
However, because the Valiant was operating under complete radio silence and limited to a speed of Warp 3.2, Starfleet was unaware that the ship's officers were dead, and Watters decided to undertake the mission.
The Valiant's motto was "We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained and new rights to be won." a quote by John F. Kennedy.
The USS Valiant (NCC-75418) was a Federation starship assigned to Starfleet Battle Group Omega in 2379, deployed in sector 1045 to counter the Reman threat.
