[QUOTE]Originally posted by Matrix: [QB] The Galaxy class is like the CVN carriers today. It takes 8-10 years to build just one of these ships. From the drawing board to the commissioning of the ship. The Galaxy class if we look at the TNG TM construction does not take place until the 2350's. That means in reality construction really took 8-12 years not 20 like most think. I find that reasonable considering that the ship is very large. The Excelsior was perhaps being design in the late 2260's and construction probably began like in the mid-2270's. That's why maybe the reason that the E-nil was refitted, because design and construction for a new ship takes so long. Then again the new E-nil was really a whole new ship with just a few key parts from the original design in place. The way I see it, is that the Nebula, the Cheyenne, and the New Orleans are classes that were being designed and along the way, the Galaxy class parts were used to speed up the design process. Or they were unused block numbers and were used later on. The TOS system might have worked if people had actually used it. It would have made it far easier. However I find it very likely that some people would forget what Class A number was, and instead used Class B number for Ship B, so Ship A and Ship B are the same class but have a different number so they conflict. But thats just me. Hell, now NX-01 is conflict with the Dauntless which was also the NX-01. [/QB][/QUOTE]
