[QUOTE]Originally posted by Matrix: [QB] Using the wartime economy of the US as an example, Starfleet would have over a million ships. However the peace time economy allows the US to build only one fleet carrier every three years. About 100 planes, a handful fo subs and cruisers. In WW2, the US was able to build about 20 fleet carriers, 10 battleships, hundreds of destroyers, 100 smaller carriers and nearly a hundred thousand planes, in a four year period. So the Federation up until the couple of years leading up to the war, the Federation was at a peacetime economy. That's my theory at least. I'm willing to bet that Starfleet before the war and during the war started to shift it's focus instead on large ships like the Galaxy class but smaller ships such as the Defiant and Sabre class. Perhaps the largest would have been the Akira class. To get on topic: TOS 1,600 to 2,000 ships. Seems like a nice number with no evidence to back it up. TNG: 6,000 to 10,000 ships. I think most of you know the answer. [/QB][/QUOTE]
