[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [qb] Actually, I think my interpretation of "Defiant-like" is unsupported even by the book, which just says "pulse phasers," which could just be an explanation for their odd effect in Wrath of Khan. (Though, of course, the Enterprise's fired in exactly the same manner.)[/qb][/QUOTE]I think the same thing: The Miranda does [i]not[/i] sport Definat weaponry (that seems best equiped for smaller, more agile starships). It's likely that the notion of :pulse phasers" did not originate with the Defiant project, but that [i]class[/i] of pulse phaser was a radical re-thinking of existing technology. [QUOTE]And "status" is irrelevant. The Feds always triumph, which is sufficient proof that their approach to starship procurement is the correct one. Heck, the "obsolete" Bozeman apparently survives every superbattle in which she partakes![/QUOTE]The Feds triumphing may be equally a result of how they deploy their forces in large engagments (fighters, then cruisers, them small destroyers escorting key ships, more cruisers). Miranda class ships dont seem to be in with the first wave of the fleet- what would be the point to that? The Bozeman survives because of the likability of Captain Frasier. [/QB][/QUOTE]
