Hi Richard, Never heard that one before, but that sounds like truth. Smile. On Star Trek they often use a variety of craft in engagements. Especially in the Dominion War they had several classes represented at the mager engagements. Each kind of ship has it's own strengths and weaknesses. The Excelsior class seams to be mass produced since we saw them in every TNG series except Enterprise of course. TheAmbassidor class has been seen around as well, and the Galaxy-Class seams quite uncommon for TNG and DS9.Although 12 ships of the Galaxy-class are assumed to have been built by the end of the Dominion War. Of course, I don't know how many of those 12 were destroyed. Yamato was destroyed during TNG, Enterprise D in Generations, and on DS9 Odyssey, Venture, and a couple of others bit the dust. During the TNG engagement at the battle of Wolf-359 from what I have best gathered the 40 ship taskforce was comprised of Constitution, excelcior, and Ambassidor ships which were all lost Well, most of them as Excalibur according to later TNG epasodes state she was in drie-dock for repairs/upgrades do to the Borg invasion, and a Voyager epasode had Janeway and the crew discover former members of Excalibur's crew who had been assymalated at Wolf-359. Excalibur went on to appear in a DS9 epasode against the Dominion.
