The discussion of the ''Intrepid'' class cannot be complete without mention of the USS ''Voyager''. ''Voyager'' itself was the first to test the class 9 warp drive and during its first mission found itself stranded for seven years in the unknown space of the [[Delta Quadrant]]. The ''Intrepid'' class was designed to refuel, resupply, and have minor repairs every two years. ''Voyager's'' seven year mission proved the adaptability of the ''Intrepid'' platform to accept new technologies and components and its resilience to survive conditions well beyond those of standard operations. | The discussion of the ''Intrepid'' class cannot be complete without mention of the USS ''Voyager''.

Retrofits from the 2380s to the present have focused on including new platforms such as the quantum slipstream drive, improved hull strength, and quantum torpedo launchers. The success of these upgrades is evidence the Intrepid platform is versatile enough to remain a staple of the fleet for years to come. | Retrofits from the 2380s to the present have focused on including new platforms such as the quantum slipstream drive, improved hull strength, and quantum torpedo launchers.
