[QUOTE]Originally posted by EdipisReks: [QB] perhaps the akira was originally armed in line with other federation ships, with a few burst fire tubes, but when the federation entered war, new akiras had the original multi fire tubes and some sensors, perhaps specific exploratory types with little use in war, replaced with single fire tubes, as the multi tubes could be very costly to make and take an inordinate amount of time in comparison to the single fire tube. the akira would have a fair amount of torpedo coverage, while having a lesser cost (this would also explain why the akira is not that powerful, even though it has 15 tubes: even 15 single fire tubes won't match two 10 fire tubes). perhaps after the war, these hurriedly made akiras were rearmed with regular multi fire tubes, and the sensor pallettes would be placed back into the ship. this could explain why the akiras would possibly have 15 tubes, but was not that powerful. --jacob [/QB][/QUOTE]
