The title of “Best ship” can be thrown around a lot in the Star Trek Universe and the Fandom itself. Some people will argue its the small but powerful USS Defiant. The Sleek and regal Sovereign Class USS Enterprise E, or the tough and stubborn Intrepid Class USS Voyager. Either way, today we’ll be talking about toughest, fastest, most powerful ship Starfleet ever put into service…. Because surely Riker isn’t bluffing! Is he?

There's a trope called "Scifi Writers Have No Sense of Scale". For the size and resource base of the Federation, they should have *magnitudes* more ships than they currently have. The Inquiry class is a good start of showing what fleet sizes *should* look like. Every class of starship should have Inquiry class numbers.

I agree with the first bit, starfleet should have way more ships than they do, the trope of the 23rd century 1701/1701-A and B being the only ships in the quadrant free to respond to threats were always silly. However fleet compositions including 100 of the same ship is just silly. I image starfleet employing closer to what we consider a battlegroup today, a command ship and multiple escorts. The UFP is massive in scale and they have a ton of patrols, resupply, scientific missions, exploration to handle. Massive single fleets mostly don't make sense in that context.

@DPRacingWhereRacingLives I don't mean every class being its own fleet, but just an increased number of ships overall. The Federation spans thousands of light-years, claiming tens of thousands of uninhabited systems. Every star should have a shipyard instead of the 3(!) shipyards we hear about. Even if they only build a handful of ships a year, that's thousands of ships, hundreds of each class. That way, when the time comes, Starfleet can field a fleet the size of the Inquiry fleet anywhere in Federation space. I apologize for not being more specific.

I have the headcanon that the Zheng He in particular was the toughest, fastest and most powerful because it had Lt. Commander Becket Mariner as armament officer, Lt. Commander Bradward Boimler as navigation officer, Commander Rutherford as main engineer and Commander D'Vana Tendi as Chief Medical Officer, and thus Riker had the best officers for those jobs he could find.

My theory. After the attack, they held an inquiry, which recommended an urgent mass production of ships to replace their losses and upgrade the planetary security on member world and colonies. . Next generation planetary shields . And they ban on androids. ..and class was named inquiry. It seems like they wanted a strong defensive starship, capable of exploration and war .

I don’t think that the fact that there were a lot of the same ship is an issue. In real life when you send an armada into battle it’s usually a lot of the same plain or boat, etc. So being this a battle ship … it does work to have a lot of the same ship (like how it happens in REAL LIFE).

Love the Inquiry, sort of the midsize SUV many police departments are using these days. I also preferred the grille deflector dish. The ship overall looks like the next stage of Starfleet design post-TNG/DS9/VOY eras. Also the "copy-paste" complaint is flogging a dead horse. It was a last minute addition, not to mention they didn't have extra money to fill out the fleet. TOS only showed one class of Federation starship. TNG never showed a new class of late 24th century ship (that wasn't floating chunks of debris) until it's 4th season - the USS Phoenix.

It's similar to STO's Avenger-class battlecruiser with a warp core height similar to the Galaxy class's warp core height in a smaller footprint. It's effectively Galaxy class's battle star drive section repackaged into a standalone starship i.e. "cutting the fat". "Copy-and-paste" is not a major issue when real-life F-35A has its "elephant walk" wargame demonstration i.e. US-style military parade.

Star fleet had just defeated a borg invasion. Star fleet technology had advanced past the point dny of the old enemies would stand a chance in a war . This was a last desperate alliance/ war . I think they blew up all the reactors . Sabotage.

The fact they all look the same can be easily explained by the loss of mars and the ship yard. The san fansisco yard might have been tooled to make the class so they just cranked out a lot instead of just a few before moving onto a new design until they could get back up and running at other yards. Its possible they also built them up for combat to be prepared for any kind of invasion being in a weakened state. Remember that Picard had to build his own fleet from barely crewed or running left overs for the evacuation.

I continue to defend the "cut and paste" numbers of the Inquiry; between 24th century production tech and the emergent need for a replacement fleet, it makes all the sense in the world that Starfleet would skip the artistry and mass produce the most function design they cooked up. Tbh I fully expect we'd all be frustrated if they didn't pump out a bunch of one class. This is a case where behind the scenes issues translated to the narrative fittingly. Despite not really loving the class's design, it's kind of grown on me and I'm even kind of sad they ditched the "grill" deflector for a more traditional look, as the grill represented a distinct looks that set it apart from previous classes. It's especially sad sing as they introduced new classes with more traditional deflectors anyway, may as well have kept the grill for the "grunt ship" of the fleet. All in all it's an interesting design and I'm sad it won't get the spotlight.

one of the other youtubers did a video on this ship, done in some star trek game, put this ship against some other star trek ship and the inquiry got blown up, both when it was piloted by the game's ai and by the player. I do not think this ship is the best ship. That title is way to vague, in my opinion the best ships would be better and even this the inquiry would not be on that list. the defiant class would be, the ambassador class would be, the Sovereign class would be as would the intrepid class as would the Odyssey class

That would have been Retro Badger, Christopher. He pitted the Inquiry against the current Federation the Odyssey-class USS Enterprise-F. The Enterprise-F won single-handedly and without a scratch both times. Yet at the same time the Inquiry rips holes through just about any other ship, including whatever the Romulans had in service at the time. Riker wasn't bluffing but the Odyssey was THE flagship for a reason. A whole other category of vessel.

Aka, the USS Cut'n'paste. It's a shame such an interesting ship was side a throwaway appearance in Picard. I wouldn't mind seeing a dedicated series set on one of these ships; kick ass enough to participate in some cool situations.

Yeeeey! Now i gonna end thinking that the bs plot-point of the sinthetics going rampage is only a excuse of lazy people to copy and paste similar ships without trying make cool new things or similar to the previous ones but "advancing" in tech, (All exploded dude no shiyards, very tragic, vewy wow) I mean the "Blablabla" dilithium exploding at same time of discovery was already not enough? "Discovery" that when was announced made me excited! Finally we have good tech to make any 3D ships and renders of space, and higher budget! No more cutting the corners... and we got that disrespectful thing, with a guy named "gene" cleaning a glop of someone corpse and being disrespected by the crew and all this hings... wtf... same "coincidences" just like Star Wars, like people with ulterior motives to attack the culture we created along the decades, but ofc its juuust a coincidence. We gonna see about that.

The whole scene where the ship first got showed was a big disgrace to the entire Star trek universe. I am glad they back tracked their stupidity soon after, the mistake was redeemed partially. The updated design looks much better and hopefully they won't make a silly mistake as this ever again.

It wasn’t an intentional choice. Apparently there was supposed to be a diverse fleet of Starfleet vessels but the CGI artists were only given limited time to actually visualize that into reality and the Inquiry were the only assets they had.

@@BullGator-kd6ge thats a coverup story. They had the whole backlog of CGI models at their disposal, could have used ANY previous model of any ship ever shown on TV. It was not a situation out of their control, they just didnt care to do the right thing. The whole scene was stupid AF, Star Fleet ships arriving out of formation, warping a mass near a planet?? No tactics, no proper fleet management, showing up like it is a highschool fight. I could keep going on how bad of a scene it, it should just never have been aired.

Inquiry has nothing on the defiant. The Defiant was so Tough not even Q wanted to pop up on the bridge The Defiant was so Tough that even with no shields it took 6 torpedo's to finish it. The Defiant was so Tough Starfleet stripped another ship of its name just so the Defiant could live again without the -A tag .

I'd called you a thoughtless lummox but KZfaq might not like that. So instead I'll leave you with this tidbit: Utopia Planitia was still burning at that time, and the UFP needed fast, powerful, Sovereign-like warships to defend themselves against a potential invasion in their weakened state. The Inquiry-class was the perfect warship/explorer for that job. They did not have the resources or the TIME to build a massive fleet of the particular, highly complexed multi-role vessels that we know and love from scratch. The Inquiry could be slapped together in months rather than take years to build a normal Starfleet vessel. It was designed to be the fastest, toughest, most powerful starship that Starfleet had ever put into service. It was built for a war that thankfully never happened. Makes sense? Good. Now take a pepto. ;)

I said what I said, period! Strength with uncompromising morals and a dash of dedication, team work and loyalty led by an unbreakable Captain equals the most powerful ship in the fleet, while looking sleek and stylish.
