During the battle, the Valdore was heavily damaged and lost its entire crew. A microsecond before the Terran Rebellion Excalibur rammed a Klingon bird-of-prey to prevent it from launching a trilithium warhead at B'hava'el, the Excalibur's consciousness, Mark McHenry, transferred its crew onto the free starship Enterprise and itself into the derelict Valdore."@en .

Memory Omega recovered the hulk from the battlefield and transferred it to Erebus Station for repairs.

Calhoun asked Saavik for the Valdore and had it renamed Excalibur. (ST - Mirror Universe novel: Rise Like Lions)"@en . . . . .
