The USS Wasp was a Nebula-class Federation starship in service during the 24th century. She served as part of the 10th Wing of the Fifth Fleet during the Dominion War (USS Baldwin: "Determined Warrior")

During a meeting in mid-2375, squadron leader Patrick Ingrum noted that Wasp was suffering from maintenance problems, to which his assistant, Stephanie Taylor, suggested was common to Nebula-class ships. (USS Baldwin: "Bullseye")

The wasp was captained by Andrew Ramsey. (USS Baldwin: "Infinity," "Evolution"). Lieutenant Katia Leigh was the lead navigation officer. In April 2376, Richie "borrowed" Katia from Captain Ramsey for a mission to revive her friend, Sara Jackson. (USS Baldwin: "Infinity")

Two months later, the Wasp encountered a pair of Jem'Hadar vessels. A quick investigation revealed that the vessels were under control of Khan. (USS Baldwin: "Evolution")
