[QUOTE]Originally posted by Harry: [QB] [QUOTE](There were just the Klingon warbirds - btw, since when do we refer to the D7 or whatever that was as a "warbird"? I mean - no objections from me, it would make some sense, but the term Warbird was reserved for the D'Deridex for such a long time.) [/QUOTE]Seriously.. that's a whole thread unto itself. You can basically blame STIII for assigning a "Bird of Prey" to the Klingons, and then Braga for planting the erroneous phrase "Klingon warbirds" in "Broken Bow". Back when all this was fields, and everything was better, Romulans had bird-like ships, Klingons had battlecruisers. Now, Romulans have Valdores that look like Klingon ships, and Klingons have Raptors and Warbirds. Meh. - The Kobayashi Maru, or at least a Federation starship, can briefly be glimpsed through the simulated viewscreen, behind the 2-3 warbirds. - Yeah, I got the sense that these ships are quite significantly larger than the originals. At least its implied that the Kelvin carries enough shuttles to succesfully evac 800 crew, and there's a shuttlecraft 98 (or 89) mentiones somewhere. Definitely more than 4-5 shuttles on the Enterprise. - 2387, I think. It fits with the Countdown comics and the Star Trek Online "Path to 2409". - I believe the "Klingon battle" was once planned to be seen, probably the reason they designed a new Klingon ship.
