[QUOTE]Originally posted by David Templar: [QB] Hmm... Let's see: Akira being a CV- Big problem. Federation "fighters" are huge things, bigger than runabouts. I really doubt the Akira Class's hangers can operate them. Even the huge GCS might have issues with them, they're just too wide (if someone's got the Ent-D blue prints and time, they can tell us just how many of those things can be fitted inside the shuttle bays). Also, because of their size (plus no science equipement or beds or cabin), they've got probably [i]at least[/i] as much endourance as a runabout, which means that most of the time they'll be flying over to the battle themselves. Akira having 15 torpedo tubes- I find it hard to believe that the Federation will invest in something like that during a suppositely peaceful period. None of the conflict at the time could have justified something this powerful. Even the Cardassians are push-overs, as the USS Pheonix shown with her [i]one[/i] forward torpedo tube. Even if they were single-firing tubes, they're packed in too close together to justify one being the other's backup in case of battle damage. A well place torpedo could knock several of those tubes out at once. [/QB][/QUOTE]
