[QUOTE]Originally posted by Boris: [QB] In "The Sound of Her Voice", O'Brien says that the ship starts to shake itself apart at speeds above Warp 9. They divert phaser power to the SIF field in order to allow for Warp 9.5, but they never say it's the maximum speed. It's simply the maximum speed allowed by the given efficiency of the SIF. If you increased SIF efficiency, a greater speed is conceviable. Hence, the only canon limitation we know of is the SIF field, meaning that the Defiant could probably go faster after a major fix (and Starship Spotter does state that subsequent modifications allowed for Warp 9.982). Since only the show is canon, every other book (except for fandom publications) has only the official status, though some books are better informed than the others and should be ranked according to their reliability. The Intrepid has been confirmed as a "troubleshooter", a ship which matches the Galaxy class in its armament according to the official article. The Yeager uses the same primary hull so it might be related. Boris [/QB][/QUOTE]
