The Rhode Island alongside SC-4.

The USS Rhode Island (NCC-72701) was a Nova-class Federation starship in service during the late 24th century.

In an alternate timeline, the Rhode Island was commanded by Captain Harry Kim, and assigned to a four-year exploration mission. In 2404, the Rhode Island defended Admiral Janeway's shuttlecraft when it came under attack by two Klingon Negh'var-class warships. (VOY: "Endgame")

Background

The Rhode Island is named either for the North American state of Rhode Island, or the WWII era US battleship.

Judging from its registry number, the Rhode Island might exist in the normal timeline as well, although it was only seen in the alternate future. The registry was placed on the Rhode Island CGI model by Foundation Imaging, it has been confirmed by Foundation's Rob Bonchune.

Although this ship is of the Nova-class, it is different from the Equinox model it was adapted from. A different bridge dome is placed, and the gap in front of the primary hull's deflector dish is filled in. The engine nacelles and escape pods were also altered.
