The USS Ninnescah (NCC-74785) was a Danube-class runabout, assigned as an auxiliary craft of the USS Baldwin.

Ninnescah was used by Baldwin captain Patrick Ingrum to transport Reinette Hernandez and Gloria Dawson to their new assignment on Ba'ku. On the return trip to Baldwin, Richie stopped as Starbase 291 and recruited Donna Belding to be his new tactical officer. (USS Baldwin: "Only the Young", "Trouble in Paradise")

Ninnescah was used, along with sister ships Neosho and Verdigris, in a live-fire test of the modified shields against the Breen weapon. (USS Baldwin: "Resolution")

In mid-2377, Ninnescah transported Dorian Collins and Jaimie Petrelli to Earth for Starfleet Academy graduation ceremonies. On the return trip to Starbase 42, they responded to a distress call from the USS Abilene. (USS Baldwin: "Reaction to Action, Part 1")
