[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"Since the Maquis vessels were of the Tac-Fighter type, we might conclude from this that the torpedo-firing Maquis ship from Part One was also of the Tac-Fighter type, due to the 'capability' issue. After all, the Tac-Fighters did not apparently carry armaments besides phasers and photon torpedoes."</blockquote> I don't kow if you can assume that the two ships capable of mounting the weapons were the Fed fighters. I suspect that that line did not refer to the photorps, since you don't really "mount" those. You'd use them in ships that already have torp launchers. So I think they had only two ships capable of mounting the disruptors, particle accelerators (that's a weapon?), and cannons. <blockquote>"I was thinking on the Fed fighter's origins just a while ago (as I'm prone to do when dealing with the mentally ill at work) nad I think the fighters were something from either the Cardassian or Tzenkethi Wars nad were downgraded/reclassified to 'courier' status (as the Fed is loathe to use war nameing conventions)."</blockquote> That's possible, except... what would they be couri-ing? I have to agree with G2k that, if any of the know ships is a [i]Peregrine[/i], it would have to be the smaller raider. Chakotay's ship was too large to have a one-person crew, and the fighters are too small to be "couriers". Of course, that still doesn't mean we've definitely ever [i]seen[/i] a [i]Peregrine[/i].
