U.S.S Voyager has alot of neat and useful technology in it, although Voyager was the most advanced starship in its time it did have its flaws. Can you point them out?

Voyager had quite weak shields, that was one of the main problems. It also only had a small complement of Photon Torpedoes, however it is a science vessel not a war ship.

Yeah but it would've helped. I agree with you on the shield part though, and the torpedoes I was amazed that they lasted all that time. The only thing I noticed an improvement in was the warp drive and impulse.

actually that got worse. lmao

Voyager was supposed to top out at warp 9.975, usually when voyager runs away from a battle or storm its either warp 2 or warp 8. In the episode "Threshhold" (I know everyone hates this episode but its still canon) Voyager follows the shuttle craft cochrane. Voyager reaches warp 9.5 and then they have to slow down because structural integrity is failing. That just pissed me off.

Yeah Voyager had a complement of 38 Photon Torpedoes and yet it never ran out lmao. I know some say they found a way to replicate them and blah blah blah but still it was never mentioned.

erm...Voyager always seemed to be lacking the value of life. Lost crewmen all the time and didnt care, just replicated some new ones

Ermm.... *ahem* The Prototype, Intrepid was.... then the Ent-E was constucted

As for the warp, you have a point, 9.5 and they top out when it was clarly esteablished they could do 9.975... The shields? They did seem weak, that or everyone in the Delta quad had stronger weapons

Nah Voyager had excellent sensors. They became even better when Harry & Seven updated the Astrometrics lab. The Intrepid class was besigned to be a mix of Galaxy Class and Oberth Class. To have the sensor and scientific ability of the Oberth when they were in there prime but the all round ability of the galaxy class.

Id say the Ent-E was more a mix of Excelsior Class, Intrepid Class & Akira Class.....

*Falls over confused* Wow, I mean I know what you said but that was just a handful, you are right though with Seven and Harry updating the Astrometrics Lab it was easy to know what was around you. Although now that I think aboot it they rarely used the lab in the beginning...
