[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] Not trying to beat a dying horse here, but if you look at the registry numbers of starships chronologically, you'll see that once a new class of ship is introduced, it doesn't go into major mass production until much later. One might account for this in several ways, such as the engineers needing time to fix all the bugs; preparing ahead for design flaws, etc. That's probably why we saw all those older designs throughout TNG & DS9, and relatively fewer newer designs: They hadn't been mass produced at the time. (Of course, the real reason was that the movie models were all they had at the time to film, but it does make sense.) With all the problems that the Defiant was speculated as having when it was first built, I'm surprised that there were even the four or five Defiant class ships seen in service. Basically what I'm saying is that Darkstar's numbers for the amount of newer class ships in service are probably much less than what he guessed. [/QB][/QUOTE]
