The SFU's USS Republic is a conversion from the older 'R-Class' cruisers, as opposed to a new Constitution-class build (an upgraded R-Class is functionally identical to the Constitution-class). So I'm guessing that it's the "extra" cruiser on that list.

Recall hearing a story came out early in the 80s or so, Constellation class ships were former Non-warp ships refitted to warp, whereas Constitutions were built with warp configuration --
Been a long time so don't remember where I heard that ---
Seeing how history keeps changing, no telling what the real story is ---

Defiant was trapped in a temporal anomaly in Tholian space, resulting the the incident the
Enterprise had with the Tholians, IIRC.
And the incident a mirror-Enterprise had with
their Tholians, too!
