[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Something else to consider regarding Starfleet is their timeline of readiness, or rather a lack thereof. We know that after the brief war with Cardassia, there was a time of peace and exploration. At least one whole class of Starfleet becomes officers (like Riker) during this lull in hostility. Starfleet got lazy... They were more than prepared to deal with the local powers but when the Borg tore through, it was a wake up call to upgrade. Unfortunately, that would be a monumental task with thousands of ships r throughout such a wide area while staying on guard against another Borg incursion... Small wonder the new designs are few and far between. And yes, registries aside, I consider the First Contact designs all new classes specifically made to defend against the Borg. The Klingons had the opposite problem... They had a ton of ships owned by various houses which were old but serviceable, and which no house would retire for fear of weakening their position and being vulnerable to a rival house. The war would help the Klingons the same way a forest fire clears dead wood so new trees can grow. The Klingons would eventually come out far ahead of the other powers, I'd think. [/QB][/QUOTE]
