It seemed to be complete, it just didn't have lasers, it had railguns. Maybe yjr power requirements of the weapons didn't fit well into the existing design or the hammond?

1.) They were hit with shields down by a cloaked Alkesh or two that was/were pulling advance guard/reconnaissance duty for the main force, and which specifically targeted the beam cannons before being taken out, OR
2.) The Hatak's weapons were upgraded with Ori technology, requiring that all power be diverted to the shields so that they could hold the line against the transports and gliders, while the base itself was evacuated.
Of course, one would hope that if one of these was in fact the explanation, Carter would have mentioned it at some point......
But yeah, other than that I was pleasantly impressed by tonight's presentationsigpic

If they didn't have beam weapons. We lose. Our rail guns can't penetrate goa'uld shields. It must be the case. The Hammond was incomplete. It was prob just used to transport them to the planet. Not to guard it. BUT it was in orbit for the whole six months it seemed.
I love this episode. 50 minutes left in it for me.

Maybe the ship didn't get all the Asgard upgrades? Remember the ship was used to transport the people to the base because that plants gate couldn't get incoming wormholes and only dial out. (Of course that brings up the question as to why they didn't just dial Earth from there and send them through? Instead of using the ship.) I don't think the ship was there to defend it but just act as their transport. Plus it did make for awesome TV, who doesn't love seeing some awesome space battles.
