It's worth noting that all the ships lacking the full deflector are single-hulled. It may be that the small-scale deflectors have a very limited area of effectiveness - not enough to cover the various pylons and necks of the larger designs.Mikey wrote:I'd always imagined that the deflector was necessary for warp travel; with some of the smaller ships, a hidden a/o small-scale deflector would be fine, but for larger ships (Connie, et. al.,) the large visible dish was more efficient.
That, and Rochey's comment, are pretty much what I was driving at - although I didn't notice the pattern that Seafort did.Captain Seafort wrote:It's worth noting that all the ships lacking the full deflector are single-hulled.

Why not? The deflector dish on the Defiant was a nav deflector, probe launcher, torp launcher, and automatic drip coffee pot.stitch626 wrote:Also, for the type 9 shuttle, that isn't a nav deflector on the front, it is a phaser emiter (unless it is a deflector with a phaser emiter in it ).
No it isn't. The phaser emitters are to the sides.stitch626 wrote:I don't remember where, but there is a canon okudagram of the Miranda showing the nav deflector to be internal, but close to the hull.
