[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shik: [QB] It would make sense that [i]Olympic[/i]s are "behind-the-lines" ships & that some of them may indeed be outfitted for ESAR ops; this is somewhat analogous to the days in the 70s when several of the USN [i]Iwo Jima[/i]-class LPHs were outfitted to act as "sea control ships" by embarking a flight of Marine "Harriers" on them. There's the thought that perhaps you don't want your best hospital ships running through a battle evacing wounded, especially in a conflict like the Dominion War where the opponent doesn't give a rat's ass about not attacking the helpless & wounded. On the other hand, you don't want them hanging around & waiting until the battle's over, either. Yes, I've given this a lot of thought. I used it as the basis for the history of my <a href="http://shiksworld.iwarp.com/mbenga.html">M'Benga-class</A> fleet medical ship. Yeah, I stole the names from FASA & redid the design, even though I really like their design. [/QB][/QUOTE]
