Copyrighted Laird MacLean 1997

Starfleet has only recently begun to understand the weaponary fitted to the fighter thanks to Captain Sisko capturing one of the ships. It is understood that this vessel uses a kind of phased poloron beam which normal federation shields cannot defend against, the blasts passing straight through. In addition these vessel are fitted with an unknown style of torpedo reputed to be very similar to the Quantum, however it is know not to be as powerful. This vessel is the closest thing we have seen to Borg Technology with regards to Cybernetic Interfaces. The Jem Hadar themselves do not work collectively, however the ships major controls such as helm, weapons and propulsion are controlled directly through a Symbiotic Neural Interface. This would be usless for any species other than the Jem Hadar, who were Genetically bread by the Founder. It is understood that the Jem Hadar themselves have a bi-directional optic nerve genetically built into their eyes which allows them translate data from the ship and then react with speeds that could even rival the Borg themselves. This style of control is vastly superior to anything seen in the Alpha Quadrant and allows the Jem Hadar to be not only lethal warriors, but effective tacticions in space battle situations.
