    Not sure how true this story is, but I do remember hearing that at the Premiere of First Contact, Avery Brooks leaned over to Micheal Dorn and said something along the lines of “I don’t remember giving you permission to take MY ship into battle without me” with a contrite Micheal offering a “Sorry Sir.” In return.
    Just one of my own fav out of Universe Defiant moments that I heard of that I just had to share.

      The original script of First Contact had a scene where Sisko orders Worf to take the Defiant to engage the Borg while he was going to put together a small task force in case the Dominion “take advantage of the situation” Instead they lifted most of that conversation to Picard and Riker in reference to The Romulans.

    Top speed of warp 9.9 plus? Is that emergency speed? I am pretty sure the top speed of the USS Defiant was warp 9.5...described as slower than a lot of current starships, but impressive for a ship its size. By comparison the HOP's traditional top speed was around 8 ot 8.5...

      The DS9 tech manual says 9.982, but it has a lot of errors and is generally a bit... eh.
      On screen, the Defiant reached 9.5, but only by discharging power from the phasers into the warp drive. As on-screen evidence takes precedence in star trek, and nothing like 9.982 was ever mentioned in other sources, I would be very, very dubious about taking it at face value.

Her high cruising speed would most likely be used for emergencies as it is fast but not burn out the warp core fast, or intel/recon missions. Normal cruising of warp 6 is fine most times. It's like cruising the highway at 60-65 MPH, the sweet spot for long term good gas mileage.

    Lack of connection between DS9 and First Contact is unfortunate.
    Even though FC premiered in Nov 1996, its stated Stardate, and FC uniforms, places it firmly in, say May, 1997, giving DS9 six months to come up with a kick-butt story of how Worf and the Defiant held off a Borg Cube singlehandedly, to allow Starfleet to e mass a defense in Sectir 001.

    Something glossed over, in the tech manual. The bridge is not deck one, but recessed in a bowl in deck 2. To make it a much harder target to hit. Also the defiant top speed was 9.5. It would fly apart if it went faster. It’s top speed was comparable to a nebula class.

    Well done again with your 100k. I love this 'little' ship. If memory serves the class 7 Warp Core was actually designed to be installed on a ship 3-4 times the size of the Defiant. Also I thought the Defiant could only go to Warp 9.6ish but i could be wrong.
    Also the Borg attack in First Contact must have occurred in or after season 5 as the new FC uniforms did not arrive to ds9 till episode 10 of season 5. So the Defiant would have been around since the start of season 3.

    I had the Original Series technical schematics set that had blueprints for both on screen and referenced ships and technology. From day one there were more dedicated fighting vessels including the Dreadnaught Class which is what JJ Abrams based the giant ship in Into Darkness on. While the Defiant may have been the first purpose built warship as she lacked the typical dedicated science labs, she was not the first ship to focus on combat. The Constitution class (the Original Series Enterprise) was heavily armed and manned but due to limits in film technology and studio issues we rarely saw the Enterprise use it’s capabilities as the class was designed to hold its own on long duration exploration missions without nearby support and to rapidly interdict if the Klingons should move to engage the Federation or its allies. In Undiscovered Country it is implied that the Starbases and Space Stations served as bases for dedicated defense and combat vessels or a dedicated war fleet. We also see ships like those used for the Jupiter Defense Perimeter in Best of Both Worlds Part 2 and in several episodes of Enterprise that show ships that appear to be purely for defending the Sol System.
    Also in the technical schematics set was a ship very similar to the USS Kelvin except it had a HUGE phaser emitter similar to what was later seen on the Enterprise D Galaxy Dreadnaught seen in All Good Things and a reinforced forward saucer for RAMMING just like Picard did with the Enterprise E in Nemesis except as a tactical design similar to how the Jem’Hadar attacked the Klingons during the later parts of the Dominion War- but with the goal of surviving the ramming attack. Essentially a single nacelle with a reinforced saucer module using a massive phaser to knock out the shields of a Klingon D7 cruiser and then finishing them off with a ramming attack through the neck that connects bridge and engineering sections.

    First Starfleet Ship modelled after they shot Gene Roddenberry's ashes into space.
    Of course all the ST ships in the early series and movies were warships except the Grissom. Buuuut we're a peaceful service that shoot at lots of stuff and are packing pistols as well.
    Ablative shields are surfaces that wear away to protect the main hull material. Ablative heat shields IRL were sometimes made of wood. IOW ablative shields might work once or twice.
    The ship violated several of Jeffries and GRs rules. One: Nacelles are not in line of sight as nacelles build a warp field from the field built between them in open space.
    For that 3 nacelle and 1 nacelle ships in the post TOS book were fun drafting exercises for the author, but violated rules the boss had written.

    Jellico was a different type of Captain than we've seen before in Star Trek. That doesn't make him a bad Captain. He didn't collaborate as much with his command staff as Picard did and that rubbed them the wrong way. They better chew harder, because that's tough. He's more cofident in his decisions and/or arrogant, and didn't feel he needed to open it up to the rest of the command staff. A four shift duty rotation sounds easier than a three. Theoretically that means less time on duty.

    I remember watching DS9 when it was airing. I was 19, and when the Defiant was destroyed I pissed and sad. Then I was like, what the F are you gonna do now the show isn't over yet. I was heart broken glad they brought if back though. Because I love this ship all time favorite still.

    Inspired by Ferrari, temperamental, overpowered, and absolutely goes like the clappers.
    Yep, the Defiant is definitely Italian 🇮🇹

    Point: NOT everyone on a Galaxy class had individual quarters. Please see the episode "Lower Decks" (EPISODE, not SERIES) for proof.

    This is my favourite ship in Star Fleet. Its catchline should be “She May Be Small, But She Be Fierce.”

    So, are we giving a field commission to Miles O'Brien? Pretty hefty one AT THAT! From Chief Petty Officers to what? 🤖 Now you know that Worf was itchin to use the 'WarHead' 👽

    The dead changeling was a good touch.

    As far as available space goes, the Defiant had about as much luxury as a Danube runabout, just twice as many of them (mess halls, sleeping quarters, medical facilities, etc)

    Funny that the physical model of the Defiant was 6 decks tall.

    Might be too early, but I want to see you cover that weird Section 31 variant of the Defiant from the most recent Lower Decks episode if there's more info on that

    Many wondered what happened to that shuttle model, it having been stolen, then found, then sold makes sense. $20K is a lot of money

    There seems to be the implication that Sisko at some point managed to pull a few favors with the people at the shipyard and had the Defiant equipped with Ablative Armor off the books, something even Starfleet Operations didn't know about.

    One would think that a back-up deflector array would be behind the warhead...
