[QUOTE]Originally posted by sean: [QB] I've always believed that the SIF was used to keep the ship in one piece IF the hull was compromised, but that after you get to a certain point of damage ( swiss cheese starship) it wont do you any good. It would be a good idea however, to prevent the hull from breaching in the first place though. In non combat situations the SIF would be used to handle everyday stresses put on the ship, like travelling at warp speed and the like. On a similar note, upon watching ST II The wrath of Khan last night, i noticed that the enterprise's hull did not seem to breach. Reliant's phasers and photons left scars and burn marks, and plasma conduits and the like most likely ruptured on the inside of the ship, but there was no mention of the hull breaching. This is unlike in ST VI TUC where a klingon torp. went clean through the hull. Perhaps there is infact some sort of armor on the ship. ( or khan just did not know how to aim the weapons correctly, and was using a lower weapon yeild.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
