Yes, Rev, it's in the opening shot of "Behind The Lines" (DS9).

Ha, I remember way back, when someone did a great April Fool's using that shot, subsituting an Ambassador for that lone Galaxy heading towards the Starbase. . .

Was it ever stated what the starbase itself had in terms of weapons? DS9 ended up packing a pretty good punch, but I don't recall us seeing any other station defend itself.

Lee: There was an Ambassador in the background of that shot, though...so what was the April Fools joke about?

No, there definitely wasn't. Someone, it was almost ten years ago (the ep itself was quite recent at the time, and decent screencaps were hard to find), it might even have been Bernd, took that pic and modified it so it really WAS an Ambassador, and posted it on April Fool's Day.

The Galaxy in the upper right just looked really Ambassadorial to me, I guess. Anyway, just how many Galaxy class ships does the fleet have? There were 6 of them at the end of TNG, correct? But in the six-episode arc at the beginning of the season, about retaking the station, there seem to be multiple wings of Galaxies - although it could be that a "Galaxy wing" is just a wing led by a Galaxy-class. Still, we saw at least 4 Galaxies in one shot during that Big Fucking Battle Scene.

We've kicked that particular horse to death- the "Galaxy wing" thing certainly implies a grouping of ships led by a Galaxy class and not a whole squadron of them or whatever.
Someone pointed out that we never see more than five Galaxys at any given time (and only then in the Call to Arms grouping).
I'd think that the fleet would attack and defend in overlapping waves with a central ship leading a wing of destroyers, fighters and cruisers- probably the wing leader is the most powerful ship, carries the ranking officer and has the best command and communication abilities. Also, no one of the command ships can wear those unseemly "manskirts" they showed on TNG's first season.
