In the mirror universe, the ISS Avenger (NX-09) was a 22nd century Terran Empire starship, an NX-class battleship[2] in Imperial Starfleet service in the 2150s decade. The ship's motto, displayed on its uniform mission patch, was the Latin phrase Audentes Fortuna Imperii — "the bold are the fortune of the Empire". (ENT episode: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II")

Service history and disposition[]

Terran Empire rebellion[]

In 2155, the Terrans were embroiled in a war with the alien subjects of their empire. The battle at Tau Ceti, the Terran Empire lost twelve ships against the Terran Empire rebellion. (ENT episode: "In a Mirror, Darkly")

Admiral Black

In that year, the Avenger was the flagship of Admiral Logan Black's assault fleet. Around 18 January, the fleet was almost totally destroyed by Andorian, Tellarite and Vulcan rebels. The captain of the Avenger was killed, and Admiral Black assumed command over the mixed Terran/alien crew.

Avenger and Defiant.

Fortunately, the USS Defiant, commanded by acting captain Jonathan Archer arrived and drove the rebels off with its advanced weaponry. Archer and his crew, survivors of the ISS Enterprise, had taken this time-displaced 23rd century Federation starship from the Tholians. Black rejected Commander Archer's suggestion to promote him to captaincy and give him the Defiant officially. Angered by the slight and perceiving Black's ambition to present the Defiant to the Emperor of the Terran Empire himself, Archer had Black killed. Encouraged by his mistress Hoshi Sato, Archer sought to return to Earth and unseat the government. Except for Doctor Phlox, all non-Terrans were transferred to the Avenger, and Crewman Soval assumed leadership. Fearing an anti-alien reprisal under Archer's rule of the Empire, Soval and T'Pol conspired with Phlox to sabotage the Defiant.

While T'Pol captured the Constitution-class heavy cruiser's schematics, Phlox disabled the power supply and Soval led the Avenger in an attack on the futuristic ship. Sato captured T'Pol, Commander Charles Tucker disabled Phlox and undid his sabotage, and Archer ordered the Avenger destroyed. The Avenger was destroyed by phasers and photon torpedos. (ENT episode: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II")
