SPOILER: The NX class USS Franklin was referred to as the first Warp 4 vessel, even though the earlier USS Enterprise NX-01 was the first Warp 5 vessel. Per Dylan Highsmith - Editor on Star Trek Beyond, "If you want the official explanation on the Franklin and its warp factor: it was a MACO ship (or a United Earth Starfleet ship that housed MACO personnel at times) that predates the NX-01. When the UFP Starfleet is formed, MACO was disbanded and the ship was reclassified as a Starfleet ship [with the USS identifier]. The ship then is "lost" in the early 2160s. It was important to everyone that the ship, like Edison, predate the Federation; that thematically, the ship mirrored an earlier time in history and served as a bridge in design between then and the NX-01.
Doug Jung and Simon Pegg may have worked up something [on an official launch date], but if they did it never made it to script or screen. Either way, it predates the NX-01, and was reclassified after the UFP is formed."
