    Considering most of this game isn’t cannon, I can’t see how throwing in a Warship Voyager would be silly. In fact, I consider the Fed Miracle Worker ships as probably the silliest looking ships in the game.

    Warship Voyager was not a caricature or in any way implausible in-universe. The weapons aren't even that far off the real Voyager. For comparison, Memory Alpha counts the real Voyager having fired phasers from 18 separate arrays or emitters on screen. An additional 7 is not an unreasonable extrapolation. It's torpedo tube count we don't even know, only that there are 5 positions on the ship from which it has fired them (not counting the additional borg-tech side launchers installed in "Scorpion").

    The assault probes' function is never elaborated and given Voyager's shuttles out-performed actual fighters in the delta quadrant calling them "fighter-shuttles" is not even inaccurate, even if Starfleet didn't name them such.

    It was always the crew and their actions that were the most gross propaganda in the episode. The ship itself was well within Starfleet's capabilities, if they had actually wanted to build a military version of the Intrepid class.

    And given all the wars in STO, they would be entirely justified in wanting to build one now.

    For what’s already in STO, no justification isn’t really needed to bring in Warship Voyager, but I could see it as a crazy wartime prototype that never went into production. Just thinking of all the crazy prototype vehicles and weapons of WWII.

    It is still much better looking than the Galaxy-X. That ship is so ugly it's circled back to adorable, like a Pug. It's got a Hull only a Blind Mother could love. No regrets on the Yamato/Kolasi/Kara bundle purchase. Unlike the Scimitar 3pk, which I regretted right up until I discovered it gave the Hathos extra Hull Materials.
    Thanks for the Advanced Light Cruiser, Allied Escort Bundles, Jem-Hadar Light Battlecruiser, and Mek'leth

    I would assume it will have a console setup like a science ship with tactical as secondary usually has, which would be either S4/E3/T4 or S5/E2/T4 while at fleet grade. However I would hope it will have two Lt. Commander boff seats unlike the original which only has one.
