    i doubt they even had them to begin with - technology kind of...underwent a MAJOR design change after the first federation-klingon war *alex muses as he walks around ops, observing the decay 800 years of neglect had wrought* did you know the holo-comm technology that they were field testing on the defiant during the dominion war had actually been around for more than a hundred years by that point? it was originally used aboard the discovery, but it was kind of buggy...so they shelved it, among several other types of advanced - for that time - tech (hopefully that's actually what happens and they don't pull some nonsense where discovery jumps back from the mirror universe and ends up in the actual prime universe instead of the one they originated from...of course, considering everything else they did, i fully expect CBS to pull TRIBBLE like that)​​

I can't overestimate the danger of Thalaron radiation, Jean Luc.'...there is NO difference between organic and non-organic material at the subatomic level

    Jessica: Well the aesthetics come from an odd situation with the romulans. The romulans succesfully found a way to completely control our ships through loopholes int the tech that they couldnt figure out how to fix at the time. So designs regressed a bit to before the loophole existed while continuing to advance. That's why the original constitution has a different look to the NX classes that preceded it. Of course eventually they did fix the issue.

    (We'll sure to find out why Spore Drive wasn't researched further later on. Besides... Discovery was a new ship. The Constitution class was actually in service... what... 20 years by the time of Discovery? Unlike in the Kelvin Timeline the Connies were not brand new by the time of TOS.)

    Krystal: It makes no sense to me. Why tip their hand then just go silent? Why give us a chance to counterattack?

    Admiral Adama: I want the fleet on Condition Two or Yellow Alert as Starfleet calls it until further notice. Admiral Jade, Captain O'Connor, your ships will be fitted with our Jump Drives, Deck Chief Tyrol will work with your Chief Engineers on the installation, once the jump drives are fitted, we'll make a jump to the New Ragnar Anchorage which is our staging area. From there, we'll begin patrolling the sector. Any questions?

    Admiral Adama: FTL Jump Drives as you know, allow a ship to jump from one point to another in an instant. In a combat situation or emergency or for rapid deployment, having a Jump Drive can be quite the advantage. You'll need it for quick deployment if any one of us encounters a Cylon fleet or any forces from the AGWNB. This way, we can respond rapidly to any emergency or to reports of enemy contacts in a particular area.

    Krystal: The problem is we're not talking about a tack on job. Something like this means an extensive refit to integrate it into existing systems, but to also be able to use it accurately without risk of damage to the ship using it.

    RAdm Rose: Put it on.

    Adm Quinn's face shows up: RAdm O'Connell. ]See you are cooling your heels.

    RAdm Rose: Well, Tzenkethi aren't doing anything, and Ambassador Troi isn't coming back yet, yeah. got crews Helping with cleanup and repair on K-13.

    Adm Quinn: Good, we got a situation near you. We lost comms with the USS Madison. She was checking out the Nexus, trying to pinpoint the location fo the USS Forrestal, who had been lost in the Nexus for a while. I want a couple of ship from the TFJ to check it out and help USS Challenger. Still need TFJ to handle the Tzenkethi, so try to limit the number fo ships going.

    RAdm Rose: Why me? Jess would be commander of the TF.

    Adm Quinn: Becuase i had you on speed dial.

    RAdm Rose: Because of Capt Shon's report.

    Adm Quinn: That too. Report it to Adm O'Connell, find a way to do both. It will take the Challenger a day to get into position, so you got a little time before you shove off. Adm Quinn out.

    RAdm Rose gets up: Im going to the station and report to Jess. (She gets to the turbolift)

    (Except for the fact that the tech in game is still Star Trek tech. We're talking about installing a completely different tech base propulsion system that runs on Tylium. It would be like trying to install a Singularity Core instead of a Matter/Antimatter Reactor. Warp Cores basically share similar enough form factors to be dang near plug and play. We'd run into the same issue if we tried to install a Mass Effect drive into the Lexington. Different tech from a different source, with neither side really knowing how to talk to each other like a hot swap can.)
