Well the BoP comes in variable sizes ranging from a small scout/raider from ST:III to being comparable in size to a GSC as seen in the episode "The Defector". The raider would be closer in size to the Defiant but I'm not sure if it really fills the same role as the Defiant was intended. Further...

Well even if Voyager was twice as fast it still would only able to achieve a parity in torpedo output. And torpedo rate of fire doesn't seem have been massively improved upon since the 23rd century if the Defiant from "In a Mirror Darkly" is any indication. I meant a comparable number of...

If you taking this from Memory alpha, an Excelsior class apparently has four forward launchers. While Voyager is apparently equipped with five total launchers. Similarly the Excelsior is equipped with five dual phaser banks on the forward saucer and one dual bank aft. With additional phaser...

Well I was more referring to torpedoes being deliberately used as AoE weapons to target/disable foes rather than in examples like "the Nth Degree" where there's a concern over minimum safe distance. I wouldn't disagree there is some AoE with torpedoes, just that it isn't very pronounced and...

Except we're talking about photon torpedoes which are primarily, if not almost exclusively, used as direct fire weapons with very little evidence of AoE. Off the top of my head all I can think about is when the Enterprise disabled a Maquis Raider with one such effect but that's a far cry from...

A salvo of ten torpedoes would be devastating but unfortunately the Enterprise-D, likely the second least maneuverable ship here, is unlikely to land most if any of that against Sisko while in turn the Defiant is maneuverable enough it likely could effectively use its forward and aft weapons...

This is an interesting match-up. Assuming this is a TNG-era fitted Enterprise-D and Voyager then Red team might not have as great a firepower advantage as one might first assume since they're equipped with only photon torpedoes while the Defiant has quantum torpedoes which, IIRC, are supposed to...
