[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shipbuilder: [QB] I think someone has brought up the fact before that the quantum and photon casings are similar enough (width/thickness-wise) to be launched by the same type of launcher. If its all done by magnetic driver coils anyway, there's no need to have a special launcher for each of the two casings. The only difference is that quantums are probably self-contained and don't require the reactant loading systems that prep up the photon torps. So why, for example, don't we see the Defiant's "shoulder-mounted" pods firing photons? Maybe each of the launchers has a specific "ready load" that only includes a particular type of torpedo....shoulder launchers = quantums, while the nose = scientific loadouts, and aft launchers = photons.
