[QUOTE]Originally posted by Bernd: [QB] I'm surprised how well the statements from "The Maquis" go along with those of "Heart of Stone". Together with the evidence from TNG: "Preemptive Strike" (someone have a transcript?) we can safely conclude that the Maquis ships were all supposed to be upgraded civilian Federation ships. Here "courier" may refer to a small trade ship of which we have seen many other designs (mostly shuttles and Batris redresses) in alien hands. My principal problem with that notion was always that the two designs just didn't look anything like that. Neither does the aggressive styling feel right, nor do the designs look practical. Later on in DS9, the responsible people may have thought just the same and declared one of the courier ships to "fighters" or "raiders" (the fact that we had seen the latter on Voyager may have influenced the decision not to use this design on a regular basis on DS9, except for Eddington). In this light it doesn't even matter that much which of the two is the true Peregrine, although I admit that the evidence is in favor of the smaller raider (or the raider with the smaller cockpit).
