Last I heard it was launched into space to track down Khan Noonien Singh in some anime series.

The way I see it, America most likely was one of many by the mid-century, more so than the Fresh Blood of WW1 and then the big safe deposit of the Allies in WW2. By the Eugenics Wars there are other powers, by WW3 the US is probably surrounded by peers of equivalent economic and industrial might on their own side, fighting peer-level enemies in ECON. Thus whatever local regional peer was under threat probably dealt with it therein, with everyone else chipping in how they could: sort of like, maybe, a Saudi-Iranian war with the Iranians in ECON and the Saudis with the NUN? with both sides with modern tech and capabilities, Israel vs Syria, Colombia vs Venezuela, etc.... There's musings of oil conflict over a (probably much warmer) Antartctica and out in taklamakan in Xinjiang/the Tarim Basin...maybe a Turkestan movement that got out of hand?
And then in 2053, the nukes fly, after decades of proxy wars and the New Cold War. It's almost topical.
A genetically augmented O.J. Simpson broke free from his Hertz Rental Cart spokesman contract and joined Enterprise instead, changing his course in life. His friendship with Leslie Nielson on the set of Forbidden Planet V: The Final Forbidden helped him overcome many inner demons. He spoke out about the growing Khanate during his Academy Awards acceptance speech. The subsequent libel lawsuit brought against him was considered the trial of the century. His corporate sponsor's support of him led to the Eugenics Wars but also doomed the company. In its honor, the first Earth starliner, XCV-330 was named Enterprise: We'll Pick You Up.Is that what this thread is about?
Gee, I've been wondering what happened to Enterprise Rent-A-Car during the Eugenics war...
We know American got bombed in WW3. That was a plot point in the Disco episode New Eden.
No, completely wrong. The Enterprise CV-65 was never featured in any Enterprise novels. According to Memory Beta the only time it was featured in any novels was the TNG novel Debtor's Planet which established it had been destroyed in the Eugenics Wars in 1996. The museum ship Archer and Trip meet covertly in in the Enterprise Rise of the Federation novel A Choice of Futures was in fact the NX-01.
If you're going to insist on bringing information from the novels into canon discussions, you could at least trouble yourself to post accurate information from the novels.
Based my position on the original TOS - ENT timeline, not the STD universe.
Then you mean the TNG-ENT timeline, since in TOS WWIII was the Eugenics War and fought in the 90's.
You can't exclude one for not fitting in while forgiving another.
Yes.
Nope, separate.
Merged into CVN and retired as a designation as of 30 June 1975.
"Space Seed", "Assignment: Earth" and others point to the Eugenics War and WWIII being the same, and in the 1990's*. It was First Contact that made it clear they were seperate events.
*that said another episode said Earth avoided nuclear war altogether...
Since Lily mistakes the Borg attack for one by the ECON, it would appear that such attacks did happen in North America.
First Contact said:
Burn. Dude, that hertz.
Yeah apologies. I got the ships mixed up. I was thinking of the XCV-330. The Ring ship. That’s where Trip and Archer meet.
NO IT WAS NOT.
As I already stated, Archer and Trip have their clandestine meetings aboard the NX-01. I have the book right in front of me as I type this post. Page 37 of A Choice of Futures even states "Smithsonian Orbital Annex, Enterprise NX-01 exhibit." There is no mention of the XCV-330 AT FUCKING ALL.
Futhermore, a consultation with Memory Beta reveals that the XCV-330 has never been featured in any novels AT FUCKING ALL. In fact, the only novels it's even been mentioned in are Ex Machina and Watching the Clock
Seriously, I do know what I'm talking about. I know you frequently bluster and accuse others of being lazy and/or stupid, but is it possible it's not bluster? Do you actually presume others to be lazy and stupid? You would do well never to confuse me with being either from now on.

Seriously, take a step back and come back in a better space. Any more of this and you’ll get a warning.
Thanks
It’s in Enterprise: Rise of the Federation - Patterns of Interference. On page 36.
I like the idea of the CV ship being destroyed in the Eugenics War. They do have a issue in the shows of just using our history, even though, we know it is drastically different for stuff we learned in TOS, TNG etc.
