Funny how the ship is intact.

Except for the gaping hole in the back that's venting fire and smoke.

Structure is entirely intact.

How exactly do you have giant gouts of flame erupting out the entire back of something with a large break in the hull?

Same as the perfectly intact we can just up and fly it away saucer section in Generations....

Flames were photoshoped onto a perfectly intact Defiant model.

This has sod all to do with what?

Obviously, but they are still erupting out the back of it. Clearly, the Defiant got that plane on it's six and got it's ass shot off.

hence the refrence in the past by distorters of fact on the Trek side that the Saucer section was "Perfectly Intact"

Those people could at least reference to the front of the saucer litteraly slicing through mountains to indicate hull integrity.

Watch the last scene in Generations where Data finds Spot. The hull is clearly ripped open very broadly, as that entire compartment was in broad daylight.

Besides, Federation hulls can be ripped open by angry bugged eyed monsters in zero gravity (a S8472 did it and in zero gravity, there is very little leverage). They just aren't that strong.

Careful, guys! Alyeska's gonna do his dreaded "Stick fingers in ears and hum the TNG theme" maneuver! Take cove-e-e-e-errrr!

At least it's not going to claim the iit's made from GP hull.....

It's strength of frame only works when the power is on....

Strange how the hull of the ship imediately after the crash was very much intact. No damage shown to any portions of the ship that tore through the mountain and hills. The forward windows all survived the crash. Even the shot of the shuttles on the saucer show absolutely no damage.

Never saw this, can't comment.

Do you have anything meaningful to add or are you just trying to post flame bait material?

Star Trek voyager: Scorpion Species 8472

It was a subsequent episode, when a wounded S8472 straggler was being hunted down by Hirogen.

I'm not sure either,but it did bust trough corridor walls.

Try to keep a leash on your urges to antagonize Alyeska. We have a rule about vendettas.

Alyeska is a trekkie, but not a braindead one, and therefore needs a vomit bag in order to watch Voyager. He doesn't need to apologize for a less than encyclopedic knowledge of said abomination.

Perhaps more objective examples, like the one's Alyeska has submitted, are far more reliable sources to gauge Federation hull strength.

Species 8472's ability to tear through hull plating and SIF fields is an indication of their enormous strength and durability, not weakness of Federation hulls.

I'm certain Alyeska could rattle off several examples of Federation hulls withstanding impressive amounts of punishment and remaining intact.

I can count the number of Voyager episodes I've seen on two hands. While I know little about Voyager, I know a fair amount on the episodes I have seen. Voyager was never aired regularly here. Call it good luck I didn't entice myself into watching that crap.
