Least favorite Star Trek Ship

**Lord Shiva** · February 24th, 2006, 08:12 PM

from the Original Series right up until the latest Enterprise, what was your least favorite ship? Doesn't have to be a Federation ship, either.

**Morbo** · February 24th, 2006, 09:50 PM

i always thought the ferengi ships were pretty dumb

**The Signal** · February 25th, 2006, 02:36 AM

Torres/Tom oh you mean... oh

I agree with Morbo, the Ferengi ships sucked

TBH, I wasn't really fond of the NX class. And the original Klingon Bird of Prey. Although Klingon ships do look amazingly similar!

It's a lot harder to pick a worst ship, they all have their charms.

EDIT: I never thought the Ferengi ships were that bad. I was thinking along the lines of Armada II when they fly around (stealing my ruddy ships "The first rule of aquisition, 'War is good for business'"

And you can't even kill them!!) and they looked pretty cool, then i looked at Memory Alpha and i see your points. They do kinda suck...

Tis an easy one this, the original Enterprise NCC-1701.

The NX series also sucks.

BTW, Anubis69, I too miss Cliff each and every day.

yeah the original enterprise ncc-1701 was very dull

Least favourite? Have to be starfleet vessels. Aerodynamics in space, what were they thinking?

**Anubis69** · February 25th, 2006, 03:28 PM

In all fairness some starfleet ships (the one that jumps to mind is the Intrepid. I think the Defiant could as well but don't quote me on that) could land on planets and would need to be fairly aerodynamic.

**Missster.Freeman** · February 25th, 2006, 03:36 PM

You know, I can't really think of any Star Trek ships that I don't like, although, there are some unofficial Federation ships that just look plain silly.

One ship in particular is the U.S.S Freedom. It's just a single nacelle with a saucer section stuck on top

It's rather unfortunate looking IMO.

edit: Apparently the Freedom class IS in the official canon. Still, it is rather an oddball of a ship.

Yes, those can land on planets but do not need aerodynamics.

Our current day planes have engines which only provide forward thrust. Up and down is achieved through aerodynamics. The reason why there are no 'up and down' engines (Harrier excluded) is because they simply require too much power to keep a plane up.

However, starfleet uses a matter/antimatter power source which provides so much energy that you can use thrusters to go up and down. So there is absolutely no need for aerodynamics.

Touché! Cheerfully withdrawn.

Aerodynamic or not, IMHO they do look sweet.

**rarocks24** · February 26th, 2006, 07:40 AM

They are kinda aerodynamic aren't they? But still, they look sleek and crafty. Pieces of art flying in space that give Federation ships a bigger likeability factor than any other ships (except the Borg, which cleverly use geometric shapes).

And wasn't one reason for some of the aerodynamics to limit the damages in subspace during warp?

**DarkMesa8** · February 26th, 2006, 06:25 PM

Ferengi Marauders are my least favorite. Probably because I dislike the species as a whole.

**mckaychick** · February 26th, 2006, 07:47 PM

I didnt like the ferengi either. Very annoying species

**gatelover12** · February 26th, 2006, 09:10 PM

The original Romulan Warbird.

**Smegger56** · February 27th, 2006, 05:57 AM

U.S.S VOYAGER. Damn ugly ship. Suited the captain quite well

Ouch! Actually, she was alright looking once she got rid of that old granny bun hairdo.

**Pharaoh Atem** · February 28th, 2006, 06:12 AM

ferengi ships and the borg cubes just ugly

**Kensterman** · February 28th, 2006, 07:22 AM

I liked them all

The Klingon and Romulan do look much more aggressive then the rest IMO.

**walterIsTheMan** · February 28th, 2006, 08:48 AM

My least favorite ship would have to be the generic golden-brown triangle shaped ship you always see doing something. It's always docking at DS9, or transporting someone in TNG. I think it's been a warship a few times. It's been used for like a thousand different species for a thousand different reasons. And it's just a stupid triangle. Ugh.
