I'd say the Daedalus (thats the right spelling, thats what their patches say!) would rip a ha'tak to pieces, if u think about it, a hive ship is made to cull and entire planet, to take a planet for the Goa'uld need multiple ha'taks, we just need something instead of missles! Maybe felger could get that plasma thing working!Good Evening, Good Nite, GOOD BEER!

Originally posted by OuroborosThing is though the Earth ships don't have to suck like they've been doing. With the tech they're already using they could make some nasty stuff just by shuffling things around a bit and applying some brainpower.
They've got engines that can accel a ship the size of a prommie to .99c for example. They should be able to make some damn good missiles with engine tech like that.
The railguns are another point. They suck for only one reason, they're too small. Ok it's fine to have a few of the small fast firing ones to shoot down deathgliders and stuff but watching the Daedalus trying to use them against 4km Wraith hiveships is just a head scratcher. Now if the D used some of that empty flat space on its back to mount a few turretted railguns of anti-capship size it would have a decent weapon at it's disposal.
You just take the nukes it's already using for its missiles and fire them out of the railgun instead. You don't get homing ability but you do get a much faster projectile the snakeheads or space vamps can't just shoot down while laughing at you.
The Wraith don't even have shields so you could blast through their bare hulls with time delay fused nukes and start one shot killing their ships with the resulting internal nuke explosions.
If that doesn't work because the nukes aren't big enough or the guns aren't fast enough then just build the whole ship as a flying gun. Run one giant railgun all the way from the prow to almost the stern, then drop a giant naquadria "gatebuster" nuke into the breach, line up one of the sluggish ships of our rivals and let them eat it.
It might not be pretty but that'll get it done.

Well, i think the X-303's will lose against most enemy's sure they have great defenses, but as stated before, the weapons suck. Goa'uld weapons and Wraith weapons are more powerfull than earth's. And unless they can beam in a nuke they don't do much damage. And sinds both the Wraith(SiegeIII) and the Goa'uld(Revelations) can block Asgard beam technology They don't stand a change.
The X-302's however are a different matter, they are far superior to deathgliders, they're more manuvrable than DG and possibly Wraith darts. But mostly they beat all other ships this size because they're capable of entering hyperspace(Fallen)
Now if Earth could come up with a way to make missiles capable of hyperdrive, the way they did with the X-302. They could take out any enemy ship, they could simply let the missiles drop out of hyperspace inside the enemy ship and make them explode the instand they do so.

Also Earth has an entire naquada asteroid from that time Anubis tried to kill us with it. I think we're pretty set on naquada for the near future. Mind as well start making lots and lots of bombs from it.
