Have you check Chapters/Indiglo?

I wonder if they will be doing this for every ship? It would be nice to see something on the Ambassador class, Excelsior class, Akira class, and the Sovereign class.
I would consider it semi-cannon until something on screen proves it wrong.

Maybe, but I agree that this is probably Sternbach's way of getting as close to a Voyager Tech Manual as he can, since a real tech manual seems unrealistic.
And I doubt that any of it will be contradicted on screen, as Voyager ended about a year ago.

Dave: There's no such thing as Indiglo out here. And I was in the local Chapters yesterday - no dice. Trust me, we won't be seeing the next STM issue for a couple weeks.
Matrix: God, I hope so. Then Sternbach can clear up the Akira mess once and for all, and then disappoint us with the Ambassador mess, which Bernd and co. had essentially put to rest ages back.

The Hauk's presumably named after this gentleman. And David meant Indigo, of which I know of at least one in Alberta (Southcentre in Calgary), so they're not an East-only thing.

There's apparently one to be found at Signal Hill. So .

All I have in the city closest me is 3 Coles stores. The closest Chapters is about an hour away... Don't think there's any Indigo stores in the Atlantic provinces.

Is USS Hauck the fourth Intrepid? Or what? Or not? I'll most definitely add it to my list, but does he give some more insight on the ship?

"A 15-day series of impulse tests, which verified the integrity of the vessel and systems operation at sublight velocities, culminated in Voyager accelereating to warp 1.03 with the U.S.S. Hauck flying formations for engineering support and emergency backup"
Seems like it was a pre-existing ship detailed to Starfleet engineering as support during the new ship's shakedown tests.

No, it's not an Intrepid. It's a ship that flew alongside Voyager on her test flight, to provide engineering support. Nothing else about it was mentioned.

Engineering support. Hmm. I remember an old 'making of'-magazine back when Voyager started airing. And they did also provide some technical information. I think they mentioned Voyager was in fact the third vessel in service. If this doesn't contradict Sternbach's little report, we could say Hauck was the second ship. What's better for support than your own sister ship? They could compare data and check the information collected by Voyager directly instead of using records of other test flights. Just a suggestion...

This could be a long shot. Could it be a Yeager Class ship or an Elkins-Type. These two ships are the closest type to the Intrepids and if you go with the registries, possibly older.

Um.. Sternbachs report said that the first three were the Intrepid, Voyager and Bellerephon.
Stop imagining things... the Hauck was a non-Intrepid ship, class unknown.. get over it
