Sorry about this other thread did not have the galaxy class. Can’t believe I forgot about that class. Also my pick is the sovereign. Again so sorry I have a hard time Figure it out. I think I got to right this time so moderators if you could delete the other two that would be great.
And remember think about weapons placement not just pure fire power.
 
The Kelvin universe Constitution class had an insane 72 broadside photon torpedo launchers, in addition to 2 forward and 2 or 4 rear. Shame only one of them ever got used, and even then it was only to get Scotty to safety in Star Trek Beyond.

Yeah that’s interesting.
 
Has to be the tough little ship the Defiant Class again with the Sovereign Class coming in a close second. But then again perhaps it's the Wells Class.

The problem is that weapon tech gets more advanced, the Constitution Class was well armed for it's day (2240's-2270's) but with it's dual forward and rear torpedo launchers and extra forward phase emitters the Miranda Class seems better armed by the 2280's.

Totally agree. And don’t forget to vote
 
I voted "Other."

There's a progression of weapons capability that starts with NX at the weak end and ends with Ambassador. Once you're into the TNG era the question is meaningless because all of those ships share weapons parity; they have the exact same weapons applied in different ways. None of their weapons are "more powerful," so no one ship in the 24th century can be put up as an answer.

So, I pick all of them.

Well I must say that was a very creative Answer
 
My proper vote is for the USS Vengeance. Although we never saw 95% of it, she was overdesigned by ILM with shitloads of new, never-before-seen weapons like neutron torpedoes, and also had pop-up photon racks, drones (seen very briefly) and the one weapon we did see lots of, arcing phasers.

Also, her torpedoes has a maximum yield of 320 isotons, more even than the USS Defiant's quantum torpedoes (if you compare to the numbers on display screens in the movie vs numbers in the DS9 tech manual)

Well, what do you expect? Nero had the Federation scared shitless, delaying construction of the Constitution class several years, so it could be redesigned bigger and meaner, and built in an Iowa cornfield (less easily observed by the Romulans, especially a Romulan with the biggest, meanest ship anybody'd ever seen), instead of in orbit.
 
I picked the Defiant. She fought the Borg for a real long time, was likely the only survivor from the start of the battle, and not only survived that fight but also the destruction of the cube. Add to that, being a key ship in the Dominion War for 2 years. It took a Breen energy draining weapon to stop her. Even the Borg couldn't destroy her AFTER her shields and weapons were gone. She did everything she was designed to do and more.

Tough little ship is an understatement.
 
Well I’m not starting a new one and I don’t know if I can change it so everybody who wants to pick the galaxy pick the top choice

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but my advice?
