When the Titan scans the Shrike, it identifies it as multiple ships from multiple factions. I think it is made from parts from multiple ships and that actually is a Galaxy class deflector dish and secondary hull.
Honestly makes sense, at one point in the war the Dominion wanted to pull back to the border and rebuild its forces so creating a whole new ship design to better deal with Federation Alliance ships even if it takes a few years is right up the Dominions alley, The Dominion thinks years ahead and the Shrike could have easily been in development during the war.
Maybe the Shrike was a Top Secret Prototype ship that the Dominion was in the process of constructing that combined the Technologies of their allies, but never finished and the Prototype was just sitting there at the Top Secret Dominion Shipyard that was building this thing and Vadek being a Founder had previ. to this knowledge of this Top Secret Shipyard and went to call upon this deadly ship.
I always felt the Shrike was Reman in its design elements. Has a similar spread wing appearance to the Scimitar and would have been psychologically damaging to Picard for not only his unwilling role the incident with Shinzon but also the loss of Romulus and Remus when their sun went supernova. Rikers line about the Shrike being a guillotine mirrors Picards line about the Scimitar being a predator ad well. Meanwhile the inclusion of Dominion displays and weapons of the Dominion allies still fits the fact that the technology was procured via Dominion allies.
Got a theoretical idea for a video, Shrike Vs Scimitar. Both antagonist ships had the protagonists where they could have blown them away but didn't. These ships are superior to the Sovereign or Neo Constitution. What if these ships went head to head. Both ships not holding punches and full on everything they have trying to destroy each other. Who would more than likely be the victor on a level, open space no advantage playing field. Advantage not present being e.g. planets, asteroids, interfering ships to be thrown around. Just like two ships on the line battling it out to final victory.
There was a Romulan fighter in the PS2 game "Star Trek: Shattered Universe" which featured a similar 4 wing forward prong design as seen on the Shrike in Picard. Funny enough, this fighter was also named "Shrike"
There's an error in this. Part of the experiments on the Changelings included nanites acquired from Picard body (also at Daystrum). This is how they escaped, with the help of the Borg queen. It's also what gave her power over them. That's the point of using the hand to communicate.
When I first saw it it made me compare it to the Simitarn used in Star Trek: Nemesis! I'd love to see those 2 slug it out! They both look scary enough! Glad to hear you again Adam! Imagine in your head BOTH taking on a few IST 2's in another universe! 😉
Vadek was brilliant, I don't know the actresses name although I do recognise her but WOW didn't she do well, I loved everything about her, the ship, them being changelings, right up untill it was suddenly the borg that season was fire imo.....
She was in pulp fiction. She had an appearance in battlestar galactica as well . She has been around since the 90s . Her father was an academy award winner and a legendary character actor
I always assumed that the Shrike had been created by Section 31, using aspects of technology from various species/factions (including the Borg) - hence the different types of weapons. Its non-Starfleet/Federation design being a deliberate attempt to disguise who created it. I thought that the forward-swept "prongs" were part of the quantum tunnelling design... so maybe that technology was designed for this ship.
The Shrike's hull does look like Sona ship material and somewhat shape. I believe they may have used structure from old Jem'Hadar ships like the cruiser for the fork piece in the center. However also looks like the deflector could be starfleet. And it has the openness of the wings almost like a D'Deridex and the size of the Schimitar. Like they took parts and ideas of old destroyed but formidable ships and made it into one big badass
Just an over weaponized ship, still the portal weapon use was interested. But we wont see portal technology again - destine to be an unused forgettable writer trope.
Well by the 25th century, the Dominion's stance on the federation is a tentative truce with Odo pushing them more towards a peaceful defensive form of xenophobia as opposed to their previous aggressive stance. The Dominion is still the Dominion, but they have more of a you keep to your side of the fence, I'll stay on mine approach to everyone around them. Which means Vadic would of been welcomed back with open arms but wouldn't of seen any open support by the Dominion, so Vadic wouldn't of found allies there, as was said in the video, it would of caused a schism, on one side you'd have Odo's faction and in the other Vadic's faction and since Changelings NEVER harm other Changelings and the Dominion slave races are loyal to only the Founders; Vadic would of found little more than a few other Changlings support and the approval to do as they wished by the Founders but no actual military support from the Founders. So instead Vadic stayed in the Alpha Quadrant and sort out a ship which was likely secretly built by the Dominion near the end of the war using parts and components cobbled together from allies and salvaged ships as likely a last bid attempt to win the war when they were cut off from the Gamma Quadrant; The Shrike fits that MO, a secret war winning super weapon that was never deployed in time due to the sudden unexpected Cardassian rebellion. It was likely constructed by the Son'a and the Breen.
Considering the devious (and somewhat immoral) schemes that Section 31 has pulled in the past, I think it entirely possible that the Shrike may have been a top secret experimental vessel that the Federation's supers-pies created. With technology and parts harvested from alien wreckage from the Dominion war and adapted into a ship that no one would ever mistake for a Starfleet vessel. This would likely have required Section 31 to find Dominion defectors to help design and build the Shrike. The prison breaking shape-shifters may have commandeered the Shrike in their escape.
🖖😎👍Very cool and very nicely well done and executed and informatively explained in every detail way shape and form provided on this format and subject matter on the Shrike Starship vessel and it's design specifications and all of it's capabilities and various different weapons and there functions and useages of and amount of weapons available and shields and warp capabilitie and all of Her various other capabilities and so forth and so on indeed guys, A job very nicely well done and executed indeed Sir!,👌.
Trek's tech level is officially above Star Wars now. Star Wars has always been seen as the stronger tech since it had Star Destroyers, Death Stars and Hyperdrive, but Trek now has portal guns, not just Planet but System killers, and drives faster than Hyperdrive. And Star Destroyers are just big but everything it can do, a smaller ship can still do, and the Trek ships are just more mobile.
This is my Independence Class Starship Enterprise weapons and backstory -30 phaser banks - 4 Photon torpedo launchers (each carry 3,000 torpedoes) - 34 type 7a phaser turrets - 2 quantum torpedo launchers (each carry 500 torpedoes) - sybonnic torpedo launchers (each carry 60 torpedoes) - 2 positron cannons - 8 phaser emitters - Primary, secondary and third shields - Warp 60 cruise speed - Warp 120 max Speed - 2.5 Miles long - 0.75 miles width - Tactical Intergalactic explorer Like this because war with the galactic empire
Have you looked into the new shield affects it looks like a combination of shields ,polarizing the hull and ablative armor to dissipate the energy used against the ship.
All they had to do was send a temporal agent back to 2375 and stop Luther Sloan from visiting DS9 so Julian doesn’t get the cure! That would have ended the changelings forever. (Poor Odo! But hey, the needs of the many…) After visiting the 21st century in Picard S2 they could’ve stopped by on their way home.
They should have kept that sweet looking ship an use it as a battle cruiser .... Just upgrade it with some Borgue Tech .... It reminds me of a bit Shadow Ship from Babylon 5 a very Underrated Sci-Fy Show .....
When you say "not that one" about Michael Myers, I'm unsure if you're saying it wasn't Wayne from Wayne's World, or that it wasn't the hero of the Halloween movie franchise... Whichever way around you meant that to be taken... is it the other one?
Finding out about its weapons specifications, made my husband and myself go WTF.... F*ck that! That is one nasty, nasty ship. As you said, it had it all, plus things not mentioned before. If it hadn't aligned with the Borg, what would it have done to them???? If I had been on a Federation ship and saw that thing coming, knowing what it was, I would have farted and followed through, then gone to full warp before my own ship managed to catch up with me.
I think them designing the shrike brig after a birdcage should be cannon.....👍👌👍 Edit, I'll stop commenting now, honest.....😏 (cmon its star trek and I've been waiting for this exact video from you guys, of course I'm excited)....
I didnt think she was a founder! I thought she was a sample, a piece if you will, she talks about gaining sentience during the experiments, I thought she did anyways, Im seldom wrong😅 but as its you guys I'll re watch, watch this space tho....👍👌👍
I have noticed that tv series seasons are only half as long as the seasons of Next generation and voyager. Are they too lazy to do 20 plus episodes a season now?
Again bad writing, The shrike was worthy of taking on two or more SF cruisers easily yet hardly does anything. The tired trope of SF ships being near useless and out gunned and using some sort of spacial mechanic to destroy, damage or escape the big bad.
That is basically writing. Set the protagonist on a weaker footing than the antagonist, and let them think their way out of the situation. If the protagonist is is the stronger of the two, the conflict is reduced.
@@ChristopherSloane Romulan Warbird from TOS, The Reliant from Wrath of Kahn, The Breen and Dominion, The Defiant, The Scimitar, The Nerada, and the Shrike. Did I miss any?
@@gmradio2436 Right? It just seems stupid that the UFP or star Fleet which is supposed to be technologically superior in many ways but of course not perfect seems to fail at making decent ships. They know conflict is consistent yet fail to design a ship that is superior or cutting edge to engage said threats. There is no real excuse, there is a myriad of plants to mine for resources, the ship yards to build them and robotic construction methods as well. Not to mention brilliant minds abound with various technologies. What I want to see is a solid battle one where manuvering and a competent Captian uses the ship to win, not a always a crushing defeat but one where you feel the danger and the success of good decisions and tactical thinking.
I hate it when the concepts that were left on the drawing table are miles better than the final product. especially when the design is fictional and doesn't really have to take real world life constraints into consideration.
Here’s a tip, put adverts at the end of your video so we can hear them while our mental food goes down. Shoving them in at the beginning like that is a sure way of getting your video skipped. As for that ship, Sona Design much?
Also why was Vadick so scared of the BQ? The Shrike was more than capable of wiping out wounded BQ and the Founders would never play second fiddle to anyone not even The Borg! This is dark dystopian Nu-Trek window dressed up to try and fix the two previous seasons! Much like Jar Jar Abrams did with Rise of Skywalker so poorly in the SW franchise....ughhh so sucky!
The major issue I have about the Shrike is that it's the same old cliched villainous SHIP! It's the Scimitar, nope it's the Narada, nope IT'S THE SAME DAMN THING! Big ship/multiple big weapons systems/ dark emo gothical/ oh look multi pronged multi winged/ IT'S THE SAME PLOT DEVICE SHIP, WHO...GIVES...A 💩! At least the OG writers for Star Trek TOS and TNG could come up with better ideas than this Russel T Davis BS!

"...that's not a ship, it's a guillotine." Love that quote.
When the Titan scans the Shrike, it identifies it as multiple ships from multiple factions. I think it is made from parts from multiple ships and that actually is a Galaxy class deflector dish and secondary hull.
They looked at a vorlon ship and was like ‘we can copy that’
Done of the concept art, looks just like one. Just need to paint it green
I thought the Shrike looked Carrdassian and Dominion mix, but now I see design elements from all the Dominion's allies.
Honestly makes sense, at one point in the war the Dominion wanted to pull back to the border and rebuild its forces so creating a whole new ship design to better deal with Federation Alliance ships even if it takes a few years is right up the Dominions alley, The Dominion thinks years ahead and the Shrike could have easily been in development during the war.

@@StillSaber Exactly.
You don't see any other rooms because they're all packed full of those torpedoes.
I can see the Shrike having a dedication line "Mass destruction is my thing. Banzai!"
I always thought the Shrike looks alot like a Vorlon ship from Babylon 5.
an evil vorlon ship
@@deckardcain8507 The Vorlon made the lesser races die for them, they were evil. Sheridan stopped the cycle of death and destruction.
Or like a star trek knock off of the vorlon ship
Yeah, that what I thought it was when I saw the thumbnail
Or a Shadow vessel - also B5.
i love how odo and that other baby changeling was found freely floating in space yet that picard one shattered instantly.
I always felt the Shrike was Reman in its design elements. Has a similar spread wing appearance to the Scimitar and would have been psychologically damaging to Picard for not only his unwilling role the incident with Shinzon but also the loss of Romulus and Remus when their sun went supernova. Rikers line about the Shrike being a guillotine mirrors Picards line about the Scimitar being a predator ad well. Meanwhile the inclusion of Dominion displays and weapons of the Dominion allies still fits the fact that the technology was procured via Dominion allies.
How was this ship even built and by whom? How did they have the resources and facilities?
The Shrike had a lot of nods to Jem’Hadar bug design and Cardassian color schemes.
Got a theoretical idea for a video, Shrike Vs Scimitar. Both antagonist ships had the protagonists where they could have blown them away but didn't. These ships are superior to the Sovereign or Neo Constitution. What if these ships went head to head. Both ships not holding punches and full on everything they have trying to destroy each other.

Shrike is also the name of a bird of prey, and an early Air to Surface missile, speaking to its predatory and first strike nature
There's an error in this.

“Scimitar.” Just FYI.
Star Trek: Shattered Universe on the original Xbox had a Romulan Shrike fighter, that actually shares some design elements.
Species 8742 used an identical design in sto .
So glad you said that, great game....I can't believe most kids think it's too hard to play lol.
Vadek was brilliant, I don't know the actresses name although I do recognise her but WOW didn't she do well, I loved everything about her, the ship, them being changelings, right up untill it was suddenly the borg that season was fire imo.....
Amanda Plummer, her father Christopher Plummer was my former favorite bad guy in Trek, Cheg from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Yes I definitely recognised her I know where from now, she did a fantastic job cheers ppl....👍👌👍
Joker level of performance
Well done Commander. Thanks for filling in the gaps.
Need to do a video of the Shrike VS the Schmatar. I think that would be a potentially long drawn out battle.
am i the only one who think it would be cooler if those wings was folding wings simula to the x wing from star wars
Yea, opened to deploy the wormhole gun or sumin, been done tho their is a ship that did that, what was it.....🤔
Star Trek is not Star Wars, but i agree.
@@peterq1978 yea that's the one
Where do all these rogue factions in Star Trek always find a shipyard to build their new totally overpowered designs without anybody noticing it?
The ship itself was actually just a bunch of changling.

Meant to say Droid starfighter stupid spellcheck
B5's Shadow Vessel comes out and "Cut's this to small pieces" before the Shrike get's even a shot off!
Just to humiliate them!
I personally felt it looked like a hybrid Sona and Breen especially with the pod where the deflector dish is located
The Shrike looked like Vorlon meets Wraith , with some Bolted-On Starfleet bits
Would be cool to see this type of design again - adopted by Star Fleet.

Like this because war with the galactic empire
The Shriek looks a lot like a Shivan Sathanas Juggernaut from the front. But it is a good villain ship
I think the brig bars is because as changlings they can easily reach through the bars
Have you looked into the new shield affects it looks like a combination of shields ,polarizing the hull and ablative armor to dissipate the energy used against the ship.
Yeah, looks like a Vorlon dreadnought..
Reminders me of Narada!
I think I heard Sam Jackson saying "Say "Prong" again... I dare you!"
The weapon coming out of the four prongs are the plasma torpedoes. The red explody ones. too slow for disruptor fire.
I was unimpressed with The Shrike. Its evil captain was much more threatening. The ship sized portal gun was cool, though.
also I just don't know what to think about a pump action phaser.
Is this a nod to Dan Simmons book Hyperion? The Shrike in the book is terrifying.

It's comforting to know that Star Trek is still ripping off Babylon 5 designs and claiming them as their own

It’s breen right
Shrike possibly inspired by Romulan Dreadnought that appeared in game Star Trek Tactical Assault

The design of the Shrike reminds me of a Shivan warship from "Freespace" and "Freespace 2," especially those proposed drawings of it.
Still, give me the Scimitar any day
Couldn't Star fleet capture the Shrike?
You know you’ve made it as a channel when you shamelessly plug raid ads
How dare you warn me that there may be spoilers! I demand a refund!!! :P
the ship look very Babylon 5 like aka Vorlon
Why? Because the plot needed it to happen.
