And of course the return of a key piece of cargo.. the Trucker Hat.
Tarsus 4 was a point of order. Led to the massacre ordered by Kodos. You mentioned that one starship - the USS Constellation was one of these. That arrived there.
lets say it has the same shields as a constitution. low profile, same speed, same guns. no wonder these things were tougher then most other ships of the era. it might be boring, but if i was a jr officer working on a thesis or something to get an advanced degree this might be something to volunteer for a year or two on.
4:00 I would think that colony would've at least had some food replicators or synthesizers to help supplement their food supply. Do you have a date TriAngulum when replicators where first available in the Federation? I assume with all the tech from all the member species, including the highly advanced Vulcans, that technology like that would've been regularly available. I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong 😅😅😅
Thank you very much for this nice Video

Hello TriAngulum. Yes, the Sherman was a good class of ship, and had many good features... but along with passenger carry capacity, at least a few were used to ferry large numbers of troops to battlefronts on occasion. I used to play Starfleet Battles, and other such 'Trek' style board games. In them, I tried to obtain Sherman class ships, and barring that, to create a 'Sherman clone' from other ship types. My most successful version was a 'troop carrier' version of the Miranda class, and turning several others into mobile Fighter Carrier ships.
Kind of ironic. General Sherman march to the sea through Georgia was mostly unsuppllied and lived off the land.
We all know that Hoshi would have fought against the governor and died heroically.

Hoshi Sato was a badass. She had to grow into it, sure, but she was amazing. The Federation wouldn't be what it was without her.
It seems like a design that should come out at a similar time to the Excelsior class as it looks to share the same warp nacelle technology. With the move towards phaser strips on ships if the line, having a relatively lightly armed cargo class that can use all those now surplus phaser turrets that Starfleet would be sitting on makes a lot of sense as well as some of the older style torpedo launchers.
I sense a Mr. peabody and Sherman reference in here somewhere.
I can't wait for your next video and to see what ship you will do next. But I have A question for you. Have you done any videos on Shuttlecraft ? As we will be seeing some in S2 of Starnge New Worlds. And we did get to see A lot of them in the first and second season of Discovery and S3 of Picard too.

Sadly no, by that time most of these vessels had been completely stripped down out of existence!
So this got me thinking, why do we even need cargo vessels? Wouldn’t it be easier for most cargo to be stored as data, and then just have ships that contain sufficient raw materials and energy to transport down to the surface whatever items were needed? At some point in Star Trek canon, it must be the case, the transporter buffers would become a way to not only store the staples of life, but to manufacture them. And so all you would need, would be one scan of any particular, good, and you could have as much of it as you need. And then, in the instance of materials, food, or other objects, that, for some reason resisted being stored in this way, could you not still use the transporter buffer to being unique versions of those into it, and then bring them back out at the target location?

Yes that IS the case, and occurs something in between 2402 and the 32nd Century, as we see that tech in that century!
At first, I was upset that your backstory included the death of Hoshi Sato at the hands of Governor Kodos... But given her history learning from Captain Archer, she would be one of the 1st chosen by Kodos to put down any resistance to his edicts because she would never stand for 1/2 the population to be executed to save the remaining colonists

Isn't smaller then the Ptolemy class? The Ptolemy class looks to have more cargo space. The Sherman class would be perfect as an escort for a convoy of Ptolemies while carrying cargo itself using transit. Ideally Shermans would be better suited for outer, less safer frontiers as the Ptolemy class isn't as heavily armed.

Love Star Trek and all... But with replicators, from portable to heavy industrial, why do they need Cargo Ships in the first place....
@TriAngulumStudiosAudioComics
Жыл бұрын
Well first, not everything can be replicated. Highly complex molecular patterns still need to be made the old fashioned way. IE Certain Medicines, Energy Conversion Sources like Dilithium, Toxic materials like Pergium needed for Life Support Systems etc... Second, supply and demand. Having already made materials, shipped to where they need to be is faster then making 1 item at a time. Lastly, energy and material cost. Replicators dont run on magic. They take stored broken down materials at a molecular level and reconstitute them in to other items. So what do you do when you dont have the materials or energy required to make what your colony needs to survive? So there are MANY reasons, Cargo ships are required!
The problem with cargo ships is that they can't defend themselves they need to be equipped with "powerful" forward and aft weapons and equipped with hull armor also cargo ships need fast engines.

Yes, as we've seen both the other mentioned Cargo Starships in Canon itself, and I used them as merely an example as the story says, meaning there were others... Rather then mentioning a far more obscure Beta Canon Class as well! If every video I mentioned every other class with the same mission profile, my videos would be long and boring! So as Commander Tucker would say, "Keep yer shirt on!"
Somehow I think the people who design "cargo ships" for Star Trek have no grasp or conception about what they're doing...they're essentially designing a "starship" and slapping the tag "cargo ship" on it and then grinning like kid with a sno-cone. Look at the cargo ships we have today and compare the volume on a simple Panamax container ship to this ship...there's no comparison; the Trek ship doesn't have near the lift capacity. Yes, they may have replicators, but they still need raw materials and that takes volume. Kudos to the guy who designed this, but there really needs to be some small amount of reality injected into these designs.
