boys but the real genius of the holodeck is its ability to provide situations that officers might encounter or to prepare for an upcoming operation it's dumb not to have this piece of technology on the ship speaking of technologies not existing it is often discussed that the front or head of the defiant was a warhead that had NUMBER_TOKEN bajillion photon torpedoes the head would detach from the defiant class and explode this would cause god himself to appear in front of whatever the enemy was and destroy it with a smiting power there is no on-screen evidence for this in fact ronald d moore stated that the defiant did not have a detachable saucer section looking at the define itself it would go through several several redesigns and was meant to basically be a souped-up runabout the design they went with was in fact inspired by the maqui raider many of the early concepts were declined because they didn't quote unquote look fast enough another quote was that the ship was supposed to look a little clunky compared to other federation vessels that we've seen this ship was built primarily for battle not exploration or science ironically some of these earlier concepts would be utilized for the uss equinox and voyager there's not a lot of backstory to the define itself except that it was supposed to be the anti-tng it was supposed to be something that the galaxy class was not in fact they weren't allowed to use inspiration from the galaxy class nor the constitution deep space NUMBER_TOKEN was always supposed to be not your dad star trek and the defiant reflected that it is a vessel that is loved by most and it shows the contradiction in roddenberry's vision it's always ironic to me that a lot of what gene light wasn't really all that popular but this is just historical information and i gotta say i do love to defiant myself let me know your thoughts in the comments below don't forget to rate and subscribe and guys i'll see you on the next lore reloaded
