Viewer Request - Akira Class VS 3 Norway Class - Both Ways - Star Trek Starship Battles

[@globalcitizen8321]

You did some days ago 3 Standard Galaxy Class Ships versus 1 Dominion Battleship, and the Dominion won easily. However in order to be fair it would be interesting to try 3 Dominion War Upgraded Galaxy Class Ships versus this same Dominion Battleship.

The sound of the Akira launching a torpedo salvo is a beautiful thing.

[@johnmogavero8156]

Akira with quantum torpedo's would be awesome !!!!!

[@deaks25]

The Message in a Bottle battle is, to me, how the Defiant class and Akira class are meant to operate; the Akira acting as a lead battleship dumping torpedoes at anything that gets in its way while the Defiant’s swarm opponents. A “hell yes please” to reenacting that battle. It also gives a good idea of how the Prometheus would fit in; either as an extra battleship or adding to the angry swarm.

[@thelastprussian6491]

Very nice. I was suprised that 3 Norways were beaten that fast. The Akira is really the Torpedoking. Now i wonder how an Intrepid-Class would fight it out. Without that many Torpedos, it could be to much. Thank you for the Video

[@crownprincesebastianjohano7069]

The proper tactic against any torpedo boat is to get in as close as possible and inside its torpedo envelopes. Torpedo destroyers or cruisers are not designed to be brawlers, but to maintain stand-off and volley their torpedoes. So good job!

[@darwinism8181]

The Akira: A ship so nice they used it twice It hits so far above its weight class that you have to kind of wonder why Starfleet didn't have more ships with a similar design philosophy. Could you imagine something the size of an Oddysey-class that was as equally focused on torpedoes as an Akira?

[@Raketenmaulwurf]

You should really take a look into Star Trek Online! There you get for example an upgraded Odyssey with a large weapons pod, or a Nebula class that has a hangar pod with fighters... They are really cooking some crazy stuff over there! You're gonna like it :)

[@s.patrickmarino7289]

I suspect that torpedoes are expensive (Not money but, materials and work hours or something.) The operational cost is probably much closer to a capitol ship.

[@dougsmith6262]

The Akira is one of my favorite ship classes in Trek. It was one of my go-to ships in Armada 2 due to it's 360° torpedo coverage. Those port and starboard tubes meant I could put torpedoes on target from any angle.

[@BoopdaBeep]

Two things: 1- That wall display showcasing the Norway class on DS9 is a DEEP cut, and I love it! 2- The Norway, Steamrunner, and Deiant were all created around roughly the same time to be part of a new battle fleet. I believe you've tried Steamrunner vs Norway before, but have you tried a combination of the two against a Defiant class? I feel like the Defiant would still come out on top, what with its ablative armor and quantum torpedoes. Still, it might be interesting to see how that battle plays out.

[@Cyke101]

I remember once in All Good Things in TNG, that the Romulans sent 30 warbirds to the Neutral Zone border. In one area was four of those warbirds, and Starfleet decided to meet those four ships by having two vessels meet up with the Enterprise to match the four warbirds. Normally, that sounds *somewhat* fair (the word 'somewhat' is doing a lot of heavy lifting there), but this was before the Battle of Sector 001, before the debut of the Defiant, before Voyager, and definitely before the Sovereign class, and so before we got the big expansion of ship classes and weapons technology. One of those ships was the Bozeman, which is probably the same ship as Captain Frasier Crane's, just with modern upgrades and refits; the class of the other ship wasn't said, but the encyclopedia posits that it could be of the single-nacelle Freedom Class, so it's not yet confirmed either way. The other ship *could* be another Galaxy or a Nebula, but considering the ships we saw the most often (including the Excelsior, Constellation, Ambassador, and Miranda -- and god forbid, the Oberth), matching *one* of those ships up against a single Warbird seemed to be a death sentence. The Enterprise-D was Starfleet's biggest gun in the fleet at the time, but a single Warbird was its equivalent, and there were 4 warbirds. So the Romulans had the equivalent of 4 Galaxy Class ships, and Starfleet had 1 Galaxy Class and two likely-far weaker ships (probably even worse if it really was a Freedom Class). Even in the best case scenario of two Galaxies and the Bozeman, Starfleet sent a *huge* mismatch in power that would have been easily wiped out by the Romulans. The writers, it seems, didn't think through the severe power gap between the Warbird and the more common Starfleet vessels at the time. Or maybe Starfleet admirals continue to be terrible at this sort of thing.

[@pyronuke4768]

The Norway class dont get enough love

[@BertoPerez82]

Beautiful battle!

[@RetroBadgerGaming]

Thanks my friend 🖖

[@MacTX]

In-universe, a reason we didn't see them in DS9 could be that Starfleet canceled the Norway class and shifted construction to the Akira class after discovering (through usage) that the Norway class were just too constraining of a space frame and the Akira class proving themselves to just be a better implementation of resources. So only the initial batch of ships built existed, with a good number of them being destroyed at the battle of sector 001.

[@Allosaurus87]

[@hardline2a]

I like the Norway but only as a pack. Its not strong enough one on one for sure but if you get a number of them swarming an enemy, it could be pretty effective.

[@crownprincesebastianjohano7069]

The Norway is like a light phaser cruiser. I think their best role is as escorts for heavier ships, are to work in wolf-packs. Not enough firepower or durability on its own.

[@stevebotham2018]

Norway was meant to operate in tandem with Akira as fast attack hit and run, not sluggers. While the Akiria's stayed back at range and pummeled borg cubes with them spicey glowing balls of doom. but I would wonder if an Akira could take 5 at once since the Norways all run type 10 phaser

[@terryroraus]

The difference comes primarily in the classification of the two ships. The Norway classes are medium cruisers. They can take a beating and dish one back out, but if they're up against anything heavier, they're likely to be outclassed. What bothers me though is that the Norway is supposed to be equipped with 6 Type-10 Phaser Arrays, but the version we have here seems to only be equipped with two, though the two torpedo launchers are accurate (one fore, one aft). Now, talking about the Akira, it too is supposed to have the six type-10 arrays (meaning phaser power should be equal), but in alpha canon, it's not the torpedo boat we've become so fond of. There's also meant to be 2 torpedo launchers on it (from the DS9 Tech Manual), though in Beta canon, it is the powerhouse we see here (from Starship Spotters), having 15 torpedo tubes. Realistically, 2 Norways should equal 1 Akira, as they're also meant to be powered by the same warp core. There may be a moderate deviation in shield strength due to the size difference, but not enough that 5 advanced photons should shred the shields to collapse. Now I'm not saying there was some Peak Performance wargame sabotage going on... but there was some Peak Performance wargame sabotage going on.

I would love to see a TMP era version of this though I suspect it wouldn't be nearly as OP as the TNG/DS9 era. The TMP era will just always be my favorite because the models were so much more detailed than the SD TV TMP era. BTW as a one time fan of Tom Clancy novels I often confuse Akira with the Soviet/Russian word "Akula" which means "shark" and was the NATO name for a formidable class of fast attack submarine much like this Akira class torpedo centric starship.

[@MSR-1701]

@@kwaktak I think there are TMP Akira variants in STO (as yet not in BC), though a pair of TOS-era Akira-like ships are in BC. And on the Akula, in Trek fandom a popular destroyer/frigate design is the Akula Class, generally two nacelles (one above and one below) the saucer. BC has a variety of these that fans made over the years, from TOS to TMP to 25th Century, to Lost Era variants (the Vengeance), Terran Empire, and more

According to some Beta cannon, the Norway was supposed to house a lance phaser. She was supposed to pound the Borg like an artillery piece.

[@mijimonmaster]

Wonder why they've never considered having a dedicated replicator for torpedoes? Would save space and they'd never run out. And why has no one ever thought of energy absorbing shields? When an enemy fires, the shields absorb that energy and use it to boost said shields, even the weapons. That would be a game changer (no pun intended).

[@MisterMarin]

Look at that! No-(r)-way! 👀

[@randybentley2633]

The Norway class looks like it is suffering from the same "won't be here till Tuesday" affliction that hampered the 1701-B. That negative space between those nacelle struts looks like it is begging for a mission pod to be slotted in, but unfortunately, it seems as if the Great Material Continuum faced a hiccup from Space Beavers and was unable to answer the "All hands on deck!" call to defend Earth in its complete and intended form.

[@HacksignKT]

Akira is best anime waifu.

[@TheHenschman]

I thought the Norway class was supposed to be mid to long range phaser lance (phaser cannon?). Shouldn't you be long range sniping? I'd assume you can take on that jemhadar battle ship with a defiant steamrunner saber norway combo

[@pyronuke4768]

That's VenomGeek's take on it. He's a decent analyst, but he pulled the phaser lance out of his ass to shoehorn the Norway into his headcanon of how the Sector 001 fleet operates; there is no canon evidence, alpha or beta, to support his claim.

[@chriselliottart]

Somehow, I also remember from decades ago something about the Norway having a phaser lance where the deflector is now. I wonder if it was inspired by the odd placement and sizing, as well as the low resolution of the Norway model at the time that caused people to speculate that. Because it definitely was a point people brought up a long time ago too

[@TrentonBennett]

This was a fun one as usual. The winner here is clearly the Akira I agree. It is a shame the CGI files for the Norway were lost. It definitely is an interesting little ship. I would have loved to have seen it in DS9 for sure. I had a feeling that the Akira class would outmatch the Norway's. You did get lucky when you were in the Norway and you were in their blind spot. Taking out their torpedoes like that really helped you out for sure.

[@RetroBadgerGaming]

Thanks! Yes, I think luck had a lot to do with it. Sometimes the AI won't let you get anywhere near them. I still think the Norway is designed to dock onto something 😂. Maybe a much larger ship? Imagine if something like the Excalibur could carry 10 of them.. 🖖

[@thebushwolf710]

So from my understanding I think the Norway Class is suppose to have a lance phaser of some kind pointing forward. Each ship in the anti-borg line was suppose to be specialized/had its own role in anti-borg engagements which unfortunately wasn't utilized on the Norway's part. Now I could be thinking of a different ship since the steamrunner was also apparently made to be a torpedo ship but if that's the case why does it exist when we have an akira.
