In this video we look at the 10 most lethal ships in star trek, at least according to British Ben. OUr list goes from the Borg cube, to the Species 8472 Bioship to the Narada to the Krenim Temporal Weapon Ship. You wont see the Enterprise on this list, but the USS Prometheus does make it on as the lone Starfleet vessel.

The Enterprise is always the most lethal ship with its hero plot armour
Unless it's in a movie. Then it just has plot hard points
Galaxy x or sovereign class
@@Phil-D83 Galaxy x have it on STO my favorite it,s beast:)
"Fate protects fools, little children, and ships named Enterprise."
LOL
"If you can't beat an ultra-powerful ship, you just ram it!" is the motto of the 40K Imperial Navy :)
Not the Tau but yeah.
Voyager during it's last episode, was arguably the most lethal ship in starfleet during the time
if you wanna count future technology and take a dump on the temporal prime directive
Pretty sure the Temporal Ship had already HAD that kind of tech and had passed it up by that point for more advanced stuff.
although the last season had some questionable decisions I liked the armored Voyager
@@IsaiahAmos017 as if plot armor wasn't enough
wonder whatever happened to all that tech
kurt engel I never thought of that before if they implemented that technology on our Federation ships then every ship could be as powerful as a borg cube
@@IsaiahAmos017 The Temporal Ship would STILL be more advanced than that would be... By centuries.
General Cheng's House of noodles, you won't see the spices coming
and for a few strips of gold pressed latinum they'll recite Shakespeare's Hamlet in Klingon for your enjoyment 😊
House if Noodles ? 😜
I might be wrong but, that sounds like a Ninjago reference.
@@incogni-bro8276 nope lol, closer to General Tso's chicken
😅
The most lethal person to star trek universe: Alex Kurtzmen
Right on
KAAHHHNNNNN!!!!
Nah, I like what he's done with DIS and PIC :) Very enjoyable shows for me
Followed closely by JJ Abrams.
@@frankmaston lol troll
The *USS Pegasus* had a phasing cloaking device that allowed it to _pass through matter._
That's pretty much invincible.
Didnt that ship end up into an asteroid because of a malfunction?
@@operationmisanthropia5831 It happened because the crew mutanied if I remember right... sabotage.
@@jonathanmarois9009 Ouch, thats even more cruel than just a simple Malfunction
@@jonathanmarois9009 No, the crew mutinied because it malfunctioned; by the time the mutiny happened there was already a mass casualty event going on due to the accident.
Also, not for nothing, but while the phasing cloak makes you effectively invincible to external attack (assuming the enemy ship isn't also similarly phased, which WAS a relevant point in a later episode), it also makes you impotent to attack others, as your phased weapons will also pass through what you attack.
Thus, it's not a lethal ship because it's purely defensive, unless the lethality comes from the ship itself malfunctioning and lodging half the ship in solid rock.
@@LabTech41 Precisely. Weapons had not yet been developed... so it did not have any special offense.
The Federation never got to design weapons for it but you basically did... a simple rock or anything dense in mass... all the ship has to do is direct it where it wants and unclock the mass anywhere IN an enemy... the main bridge, warp core, weapons systems, etc...
Thinking about it... they could just replicate a large mass on their ship... teleport it anywhere and uncloak it and... that's pretty damn invincible and powerful. Nothing the enemy could do to stop that.
"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force"
--A force wielding nut job
To be fair, in the novels, it really is
@@colinsmith1495 well i mena why destroy it when you can eliminate time where it never even existed life gets alot stranger then
To be fair The Force is more than just cool powers but a primordial force of nature that permeates everything.
From a strictly holistic standpoint it really is bigger than any weapon since it will still be around long after everyone else is gone.
Yeessssss!
kyriss12 in KOTOR, the Rakata used the Force to power a massive factory that could churn out spaceships on a whim
The fact that "When in doubt, ramming speed!" is time and again an employed tactic, is the best argument for Star Trek being a prequel for Warhammer 40k...
Starfleet = Imperium
Klingon = Ork
Vulcan = Eldar
Warhammer 23hundred confirmed!
Gorn=ork
Romulan=drukari
Borg=necrons
Andorians=tau
Not to mention the astartes have encountered ancient human vessels from the golden age of technology possessing advances beyond they’re comprehension with sleek elegant designs, kind of sounds like a Star fleet vessel to me
Today is a good day to WAAARGH!!!
Forget my Gorn analysis your right Klingon is more Orcish
Year of Hell was originally going to be an _entire season's_ storyline, they had been planning it for ages (Kes traveling backwards in time from her elderly self encountered them and mentioned it to past Janeway, a few seasons earlier), but they had to cut it down to a double episode for some reason.
Maybe do a video on it, and see if you can uncover any details on the original Xindi style epic.
Whole voyeur was a mess tbf
The reason that idea was scrapped was partly budget restrictions but mostly because Paramount wanted Voyager to be different from Deep Space Nine and wanted every episode to be a new adventure. That way people could watch the episodes on any order and not be lost. Voyager had a lot of dropped ideas. Species 8472 were suppose to be the primary villain for the rest of the shows run, Seska and the Kazon storyline was suppose to last longer then it did, the Vaudwaar (probably misspelled that) were suppose to be another reoccurring villain, but never showed up again after Dragon's Teeth. That's just to name a few.
They were going to do it as the entire season, but then the writer's strike happened and they couldn't get enough scripts done, so they took the best parts and made a damn good two-parter at the very least.
@@nuclearsimian3281 what a shame. Just imagine what a year of hell season would have looked like.
Still a hell of a two parter, one of my. Favourite trek episodes!
The thing that bothered me most with the way Year of Hell ended up was the fact that they had that Kes-reverse-life thing where she gets the temporal variance of the Krenim temporal torpedo, and gives that information to the crew, but then Seven ends up having to re-find the temporal variance herself... 'cuz Janeway apparently forgot. The fact that Janeway apparently forgot is made more frustrating by the fact that during the episode with Seven acting as a temporal agent, Janeway remembers THE EXACT CHRONITON FLUX of the temporal transporter several years later. So she should have been able to remember the temporal variance of the Krenim torpedo as Kes told her. I think there were a few other things that were hinted at in earlier episodes and altered in Year of Hell, but that was the thing that really got me.
“Except for you Worf, you don’t get to ram anything.”
RIP Jadzia
"except for you word , you don't get to ram anything "
Word:and i took that personally(proceeds to ran British Ben )
*grumbling Worf noises*
I'm thinking he got to "ram" her a few times. 😉
most lethal ship, at least for its own crew, is unrivaled: the Oberth
It's made out of explodium, what so you expect
That pales in comparison to the sheer slaughter of Miranda crews. I mean, how many Oberths have we actually seen on screen, vs the legions of Mirandas that got obliterated in the Dominion War?
Nemesis ship is still cooler
@@weldonwin Well to give some credit to the Mirandas they are if I am not mistaken about 80 years old. And they were able to make quiet a dent when they were new, which can't be said for the Oberth haha
@@weldonwin which is worse? who knows, kind of like the question of if a storm trooper could actually kill a red shirt.
Species 8472 is by far the most powerful ship for it’s size and it only had one pilot.
But, was ( were ) stronger when the plasma type weapons joined together to blast away any Borg ship!
The ship is actually one of their 5 genders.
I counter that with Captain Braxton and the timeship Aeon of the 29th and a half century.
The voth are yet 1 more reason to have good old fashioned projectile weaponry aboard.
Tuvok: Our hand phasers appear to be inoperative.
Me: Thats ok. I have a spas12 right here.
Oh- that doesn’t work, either? Grab me that Viking spear from the Museum Deck. Maybe a few.
Also done in Star Gate against Replicators: "We're too advanced to consider using controlled explosions to hurl solid projectiles." --- Really? This is why Star Fleet's phasers should all come with an underslung shotgun or rifle attachment. Add to that the Borg actually don't seem to be able to repel physical attacks with their shields...*logical processes trend back to the 40k Bolter as weapon of choice for interactions with advanced aliens*
Look out! He has a board with a nail in it!
This logic works until you end up with a Dr writer involved who remembers that sufficiently advanced species, make all guns not work. The Sontarans use a bit of tech to stop guns working somehow.
Also star trek technically did do this, Picard used a holographic machine gun kill some borg, it only works until the sufficiently advanced species remembers 1 of 2 things, their sheilds stop projectiles so lets use them, or "we can teleport things around" and teleport your guns off the ship.
It stands to reason that they probably have personal shield generators if they have personal cloaking technology. But why take the chance when you can just shut down their weapons at will? Shutting down their weapons was just an added redundancy and tactical strategy. No need to use their personal shield generators if they don't have to. No doubt they would have a countermeasure to deal with projectile weapons as well.
Speaking of: Starfleet did have a version of a projectile weapon that could shoot through walls and scan it's target from virtually anywhere. It was on the last season of ds9 with the crazy Vulcan serial killer. No doubt they could render that weapon inert as well pretty easily.
The USS Relatively should also include Capitan Braxton's timeship *Aeon,* a one man ship that almost took out Voyager and then proceeded to alter Human history by being salvaged and _causing the computer tech boom of the 70's, 80's and 90's…_
So Humanity (and the Federation) live in a an altered timeline that they created by the actions of Voyager and a Bill Gates wannabe.
So what happened in timelines where Voyager didn't get stuck in the Delta Quadrant ? - it's enough to give you temporal psychosis…
Just a thought, what if the producers had asked Bill Gates to play a satirical version of himself and he agreed, instead of using the character of Henry Starling and Chronoworks - for a complete mind fuck joke.
Trouble is some nutcases would take it seriously.
Arent ALL timelines altered?
The issue here was that Starling could reverse-engineer the basic stuff but had no understanding of the more complex things, which is why he just improved computer tech rather than start his own space program. That’s why he wanted to go to the future: to find intermediate tech between the basic stuff and the complex stuff
Also about the Aeon, if you miscalculate a time jump, you could wipe out an *entire star system*
@@artembentsionov that never made much sense to me, some of the stuff he showed off was pretty advance. He actually like he created the doctor portable hologram unit.
Perfect timing, I’ve been binge watching Star Trek... made it through original, STNG, and now I’m on Enterprise.
Ben: Worf doesn't get to ram anything.
Jadzia: Could have fooled me
Worf: (mischievous smirk)
Voyager somehow, even before it's last episode upgrades, went toe to toe with Borg ships many times and survived. I know it was newer than any ship at Wolf 359 but there is no way the Borg should not have been able to destroy Voyager.
Ablative plot armor
Love your star trek videos, British Ben!
I’m so glad you included the Prometheus. That’s definitely my personal favorite starfleet class. If I got to command any ship, I’d want to be in the captains chair of the Prometheus
You should have covered the USS Vengeance, from Star Trek Into Darkness. It was huge, had advanced weapons, and could be operated by a skeleton crew
🖖😎👍Very nicely well done and very well informatively explained and executed in every way and detail indeed 👌.
Great video!
Relativity is the clear heavy weight: If you're playing a full scale war scenario, intelligence is key to victory. It can travel through time and even send away teams through time. It can fight it's targets 4th dimensionally and against foes who cannot engage in 4d combat, there is no contest. It has all the time it needs to peruse the entire history of it's target and find the exact worst points in time for it's target to have to repel an attack. Though in fairness, while it could probably destroy the Voth ship while it was being built, it probably wouldn't work on the Krenim ship unless it's time shields were down. Even then, being able to manipulate time to that fine of a degree makes victory against such an opponent improbable in the extreme.
The Krenim ship cannot time travel, nor can it send others through time. It can only erase targets. It has to fight 3 dimensionally.
The Voth ship can't manipulate time so it can be destroyed before it was built. In fact, once you get the ability to time travel, everyone else who doesn't have it is at your mercy.
Also surprised the Enterprise J didn't end up on the list.
Good thing WH40K nerfed time travel.
i love this video , its basically top most powerful Voyager ships, nice
A few honorable mentions: Enterprise J, AGT future Enterprise D, armored Voyager, Husnock Warship and Tin Man (Gomtuu)....
I don't think the enterprise J deserves an honorable mention. It didn't do anything on screen aside from a quick clip of it firing a phaser. The others you mentioned definitely do, so does the defiant.
The Husnock ship was arguably an illusion, and therefore crewless.
@@kaneo1 The original Husnock ship was real (it wiped out the colony on Rana IV) but the ones that played cat & mouse with the Enterprise were indeed illusions.
@@telephony Right. But we don't know the strength of that ship. It was an illusion, meaning that the strength it showed was the strength given to it by its maker. It could have been far weaker then the Enterprise D. Would a guy trying to chase them away give the Enterprise crew a realistic illusion? Think about it. In that time frame, space has been explored quite extensively. If a species was bent on conquest existed with tech more advanced then the Federation that close to them, they would have heard about them already. More then likely, they where quite weaker.
I love the concept of bioships and species 8472. Biotechnic is super cool.
The USS Vengeance was a very powerful ship for its time. Made mincemeat out of the Enterprise.
The USS Discovery and the Kelvin timeline Enterprise …
They almost _killed a Franchise._
Almost ... hmm ... jury is still out on that one. But yeah, STD sucks - the abbreviation says it all.
@@Taiken83 The actual abbreviation is DIS but you do you.
Pretty sure Discovery and Picard are responsible for that fatality.
Almost killed a franchise? brought back to life is more like it. Not since the 90's has star trek had this many shows and been this popular.
@@poxzen Is that a joke? The utter generic schlocky garbage being shit out these days with the Star Trek name slapped on has NOTHING to do with actual Star Trek. Bring it back to life my ass.
I loved the doomsday ship from the Original Series. Once again thank you for using a clip of my favorite scene from Star Trek. I can't help but wonder what an entire season of "A Year of Hell" would be like. Star Trek:Voyager just made it look like the Federation gave up on the Temporal Prime Directive.
I love this guy! Always nice to see him.
BTW I think ships from Star Trek Online have gotten to the point of being straight OP. I feel the Herald Ships would fit this list if stuff from the game was to be included.
Hi thank you I love it very much.
Loved It!
Props for including the Krenim!
Awesome video
The Jem'Hadar Dreadnought it was massive. They only built a handful of them. A Defiant class could fly between the gaps in its hull between pylons it was so big.
4500m or 4.5 times bigger than a star destroyer and would utterly rape that and a executor class too
I personally loved the mirror verse Negh'Var. It was supposed to be several times the size of the regular one.
@@Bitchslapper316 like a gigachad version?
The return of British Ben the sophisticated Ben it’s always a pleasure to see your face Ben
I was kinda hoping for the Dreadnaught class (USS Vengeance). I love that ship. Oh well. All of these are awesome.
I thought I was going to see the Enterprise with the cloaking-device from the Pegasus on this list (Season 7 Episode 12.) I guess it never saw any action but it had some incredible abilities, it can cloak and ignore physical matter as well.
I just came up with the idea that the phase cloak was the direct descendant to the "Trans-phasic Torpedos" that Janeway brought back from the future. Its very similar to the phasing cloak, a way of going through both matter and energy (such as shields) in order to bypass defenses and take down an enemy ship. The next question would be did Janeway and the crew develop them on the way home or after they returned? I doubt the tech was listed on Voyager's computer records as its illegal. I've assumed that she and Star Fleet developed the weapons upon Voyagers arrival home (before she interfered with the time line): The Borg may have been following them close behind or even already attacked the Federation. Adding Voyager's data and experience fighting the Borg would have led to all those nice new weapons and armor and technology. My only issue is that when Admiral Janeway had that neuro link put in to connect her to her ship's computer, wouldn't that both have left a danger point for someone like the Borg to exploit as well as almost becoming more Borg-like herself in order to defeat her enemies?
What about the ship that the enterprise-d encountered known as Tin Man organic and the only way they could destroy itself with parking itself right off of star that was going to go Nova
Nah the enterprise incident
@@krisgonynor689 Janeway got the technology from the Srivani (the race encountered in the episode, "Scientific Method").
I know this video was made before this ship was introduced, but I think the Shrike is one of the most beautiful and lethal ships ever conceived
Hurray, more British Ben!!!
The USS Relativity is probably the most OP since it's a proper Time Ship from the future.
And the Aeon, a tiny little 1 person shuttle, was more than powerful enough to take down Voyager.
Imagine what the USS Relativity can do.
9:40 that’s Adam Scott (Ben wayatt from parks and rec) took me a sec lol
I agree with the top three, the two time ships and the voth city ship, and for the same reason: Being able to, in various different ways be completely out of phase from normal space-time makes them almost completely immune to almost all attacks.
Borg ships can also mend themselves. This was shown when combating with the Enterprise. Star Fleet developed Trans-Warp Drives which was featured briefly in Star Trek 3 with the Excelsior. Spock's tiny ship that held a huge ball of Red Matter would be the deadliest ship. Many Star Ships can separate their saucer section from the rest of the ship to effectively create "multi-vector attack mode".
sweeeet
love it Ben
USS defiant would be a good one to ad with its 6 rapid fire fasor disruptors and 6 ion torpedo tubes
Very interested to watch, please add captions !
Hey, that was a swift addition, thanks !
Awesome Sauce British Ben!
One thing that has always bugged me about Star Trek is the varying degrees of Technology even among the same group. You're telling me a species that can make matter out of energy and warp travel can't create advanced power armor for security or boarding parties. And lets be honest while the Borg ships are cool the drones are pretty lame, if they couldn't adapt to tech they'd get wiped.
I hear power armor and my bolter loads itself...
Yeah, Star Trek 90s TV tech (Borg drones) looks kinda lame today. Star Trek utilize robots far too less, they have e.g. nanobots but combat is still fought between individuals using handheld weapon.
I think it was IRL because of the budget, but also for a philosophical reason. In the begining, starfleet was supposed to represent a pacifist and united earth and the Enterprise is suppose to be an exploration vessel, ergo no power armor or advanced military equipment. It's the same for the Borgs. The drones are expendable and easy to replace. It would be a waste of ressources to upgrade the drones when they can simply use it to make more drones.
@@Torlik11 i still think theyd keep a few like speciality combat drones
@@Raeinok there probably are tactical drones, after all there are tactical cubes. Real issue tho is, why have drones perform boarding actions at all? You've developed nanites, why haven't they been weaponized. Beaming them directly into enemy ships or onto planets to automatically and autonomously assimilate everything.
Nice vid
I love that you love Voyager!
OK, the General Chang joke had me laughing out loud.
7:48 Red decided to put his foot in the galaxy's ass.
The USS Vengeance. Also breaks Starfleet’s class naming scheme by not being named after a lead ship, unless there really is USS Dreadnought
4:23 900 meters long which is like ten times longer than the tallest building is high.... the burge khalifa is 800 meters tall lol
his math is very good
in the kurtzmen timeline 2 + 2 = 5, but math is racist
A simple google search puts its length at 9,368.7 meters, which actually _is_ over ten times longer than the Burj Khalifa is tall. He probably just misspoke, and whoever edited this was asleep.
Hmm. I think that NCC 1031, Discovery, would be a good candidate for this list. It can basically teleport wherever it wants, and I guess if you want to count all the wacky technology that Michael Burnham works with (like the time travel suit) it's a pretty badass ship.
Please look at the SDF-1 from SDF Macross.
😉
Zentradi
I can't argue with you on that 3 ship pick...but, I would also add the BIOSHIP. ESPECIALLY- since the BORG, couldn't resist...them.
The Voth also had a small science ship. Side note, Voyager still had that phase cloak device in their pile of Delta quadrant souvenirs. So as soon as the treaty of Algeron is null, Starfleet is gonna be an unrivaled power.
My 2 cent:
5. Borg Cube
4. BioShip Species 8472
3. Fesarius The Carbonite Maneuver
2. Tim Man TNG
1. Krenim Time Ship VOY
Great vid!
Prometheus, Akira and Gagarin Class will always be my favourite battle orientated Starfleet vessels. 👌
The most lethal ship is one commanded by a main character
Because...
PLOT ARMOUR
6:12 Someone just blew their section 31 cover. Alien Lifes Matter.
Maybe THIS is what is gonna happen to the Federation. When Discovery goes to the future nothing is almost left. I think, in theory, Section 31 really fu@@ed things up....some type of a battle happened. We already saw how the androids attacked Mars during Picard's time of retirement, we could perhaps speculate that Section 31 could of been part of a setup years back. We saw how the group for centuries wanted the stop of many species......but then again species that hated the Federation so much they would destroy it themselves. No matter how powerful the Federation's ships are, will be, or were...the Section 31 will find a way to get onto those ships and try to stop many species out there.....then again many species will make their ships stronger too....if not, for sure a great deal of the universe will tear the Federation apart....like this damn virus on Earth!
The Emperor approves of your message at 6:12 to 6:15!
I like my sifi. When I play Battlestar Galactica deadlock I often to uses ramming speed to take out base star. Every time I do it i use my best wolf impress, and then take out base star.
The Borg also has adaptable shields, for their ships & INDIVIDUAL DRONES!
I love the boardwalk you but you should have featured the Borg tactical ship. It's basically just a borg Cube that's gone extra.
How about the Defiant? Or the Husnock Warship (even though it was a recreation of the Dowd) of what about the Dreadnought Class (USS Vengeance)?
What about the USS Phoenix the one that Riker was on and I had to retrieve the phase clock from
The Xendi weapon looked like an elastic ball!
The DISCO refit definitely belongs on this list, with 32nd century weapon and shield tech and the ability to make micro jumps around any vessel in rapid succession making it both there and not there in combat. It would solo any of the other vessels on this list including the Krenim and Voth.
Galaxy X dreadnought was a beast. 👍
Others strategy - use advance weapons
Earthlings - I want to look like a hero
Therefore I will ram my ship and die
Even if I have dozens of escape pods
You should've included V'ger from "Star Trek: The Motion Picture." As Spock and Kirk discovered, "It became a living thing," meaning it *does* meet the rules stipulated in this video. Nothing at *all* could harm or damage it. If Kirk and crew hadn't found out how to placate it, it would've easily devastated and sterilized Earth. It's energy cloud was 82 AUs in diameter (Wow!), and its "12 power" field rating was more powerful than what thousands of other ships could generate. It had in fact reached the utmost potential for development in this universe and dimension, so much so, that it felt an irrepressible yearning to evolve; and was *only* evolved further by literally transcending this entire realm of existence, into, as Captain Decker put it "Other dimensions. Higher levels of being." ... Pretty. Damn. Cool!
In the two novels "Vendetta" and "Before Dishonor" the Doomsday Machine was shown to be a manned vessel. When the Constellation self destructed in its maw, the radiation from the explosion vaporized the organic pilot in its 'command crystal', shutting it down. In "Before Dishonor", Seven would board the Doomsday Machine and command it, reactivating it along with Spock and Geordi to combat a massive planet sized Borg Cube under control by an assimilated Admiral Janeway. Non-cannon but still cool.
ENTERPRISE REFIT, ENTERPRISE E, VOYAGER, ENTERPRISE D, DEFIANT, NX01, USS TITAN in lower decks, PROMETHEUS, RHODE ISLAND, and STARGAZER at 10. That’s my top 10. My favorite class is actaully the Akira but it doesn’t have a name so it’s my honorable mention.
My Money would always be on the time ship Relativity. Reason: It can basically send a shuttle into the future, reporting back every move and maneuver the other ships would perform and then, after planning the best strategy engage with each other ship nearly simultaneously, or 1 second apart from a previous attack through precisely planned space time jumps between the space time location of the battle and another space time location to recharge shields and weapons. In addition it can space time transport saboteurs on board each opponents ship prior to each attack to come back with each opponents exact shield frequency and use that information to ensure opponents shields are ineffective during the space time jump attack...
VGER
and yes, it had a crew after it digitized the first ship it came across.
Nice vid
Do you know the name of the
"Magnetic Ship City"
Thank You
In Voyager I don't remember the ships name. But Janeway nicked name it The Think Tank. the e. was also called Think Tank.
Can you folks do a top 10 most terrifying enemies in fantasy?
What about the Giant Federation secret warship in Star Trek Into Darkness.. That thing was nuts!
The “Husnock” ship in TNG episode, THE SURVIVORS has to be the most deadly.
But there were no survivors... Of the entire race. Besides, we never see the husnock ship on screen
@@christopherharsch4352 The conjured ship that we see is I think meant to be a Husnock ship, and it would have been as powerful as it needed to be.
The USS relativity was a department of temporal investigations vessel founded in the 25th Century it became the temporal version of the Enterprise
9:37 Best space engineer tactic
hey, What happened to the doomsday machine from TOS?
Ah yes, it's twenty years later and I'm still being reminded of how Voyager butchered the Borg.
What they did with species 8472 was pretty bad as well. They created this cool, scary, powerful, alien race and then went and totally neutered them.
If I'm being honest, the portrayal of Klingons in DIS is way better than any other series.
Yes temporal weapons could work against them but they can transition between dimensions which could make the temporal tactic mute
Change borg cube to borg ultra sphere from Battle of the Wolf 359, and add alot of other ships you forgot about such as V'ger.
One thing not mentioned was the Scimitar also had a complement of fighters which weren't used except by Data and Picard to escape cause... you know.....plot...
What about the USS Vengeance, Dreadnought class from the Into Darkness movie? You include the Narada from the 2009 Star Trek movie. Khan said the ship was twice the size with three times the speed of the Enterprise and was built with automation so there was no need for a large crew, also they built the Dreadnought class to be battleships against enemies of the Federation. Sorry I'm not the most well versed in the Star Trek universe just wanted to bring it up to see what others thought.
Ok, how do you include Chang’s Bird of Prey (when you’ve got the Scimitar on the list already - same trick only deadlier) and not the Enterprise-J? That thing was longer than a borg cube, could fly between galaxies, and beat the sphere builders. If you are going to include the now-apocryphal Countdown comics, then Doug Drexler’s printed description of the J’s capabilities ought to count for something.
I wonder if the Husnock's ship will be mentioned ?
No because A it wasn't a real ship and B it technically had no crew. It was the manifestation of the Dowde entity and he was probably as powerful as a member of the q continuum. He wipes an entire powerful race from existing with just a mere thought. We don't know if even the q can do that, at least without consequences, while this entity's actions go unchallenged. There are a few entities that could rival even them in star trek canon. This I believe could be one of them.
General Chang didn't send two people in Starfleet uniforms. Lt Valeris sent two Starfleet cadets to kill the Chancellor from the Enterprise.
Tinman could have a crew so it should've made this list. incredibly powerful to be able to throw two other vessels across large distances or destroy them.
Temporal ship would simply appear at the most vulnerable time and attack each of the other ships with no warning, making use of the tactics originally used to defeat these ships in the first place. Plus they simply time shift opposing crews back into an embryonic state.
What about Viger from the Original Motion Picture? Or the Whale Ship from Voyage Home.
I think these two ships could easily give all the ships listed except the possibility of the Kremlin Time Ship a good run for its money.
You forgot about "TIN MAN" from Star Trek: The Next Generation. TIN MAN had a crew of one.
the previous crew was more than one if I recall correctl, but yes, very powerful ship / entity
Crew was optional, plus it didn't do anything cool while anyone was aboard. It was empty when it defended itself from the Romulans, if I remember right.
@@nodak81 No, actually Deanna's old friend Tam Elbrum, another Betaziod, were aboard. And Elbrum was in telepathic connection with it at that moment.
*Elbrum and Data were aboard.
GF, you forgot that the Borg Collective members on a ship also served as logistics and strategic assets, meaning assimilated members of a culture/race count as weapons against it. Locutus/Picard is a prime example.
What does ramming speed mean in space terms? Any speed can be used to ram
Husnock Warship for the win. Cheat mode. Controlled by a living being but from the ground so more of a drone. Not sure what if anything could beat it. Perhaps a Q.
