Every time I see someone suggest we use it to do so I facepalm. that is NOT what it does. the most it "moves" itself in time is to use the temporal shielding.
The Ship REMOVES THINGS FROM ALL TIME. That means THEY NEVER EXISTED, and anything which interacted with them never interacted with them.
It is the Ultimate universe F*ck up Machine. Only Q has ever messed with the universe more than this does, and he was punished by the continuum for causing chaos (Deja' Q episode, TNG)
It's a danger to everything which exists.
"He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

But no the Krenim time ship has not been shown to go back and forth in time. It might as well be the deathstar, and you don't build one of those to start a military invasion, you build it to blow up planets.
Ive thought of that too....why arnt we just using the gateway of forever or the trusty slingshot around the sun?
Wouldn't involve the voyager cast.
You are right OP, it isn't a proper Time Machine. But it tampers with it. I mentioned before in a different thread that the Krenim weapon, Annorax, the alteration of past events to try to come up with a favorable future reminds me of the comedy, "The Butterfly Effect." Which was supposed to be a serious movie, BTW

The potential damage from using this time ship are much worse then anything the Iconians can possibly do. This 'solution' is like shooting yourself in the head to make sure you don't get a stomach ache.

Why are you not rejoicing?

It's not semantics, its about WHAT function the ship performs. not what to call said function.

I mean, aside from how he's always somehow the first to die in ground missions regardless of how you gear him..

I think it mostly has to do with the fact, that he never leaves, even after he has accomplished what he set out to do in the first place.
He's more annoying, than a Tic!

NO! The ship does not move through time. It stops the effects of time internally, and shields itself from the effects of any changes made in the timeline, much like Voyagers temporal shielding did.
However, they won't be using the ship to remove the Iconians... 200,000 years of history? That would be impossible to predict... WAY too many factors, and lets not even forget that they'd have to re-write all Star Trek history from before the destruction of Romulus... and that means removing the Klingon war, the Romulan republic...
The ship will most likely be used for some kind of massive screwup, that we will then have to correct.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.
