10 Greatest Fleet Arrivals In Star Trek

10. The Intrepid Chases The Titan-A

When the USS Intrepid faced off against the USS Titan-A in Imposters, that ship looked mean. After having a shuttle collide with their nacelle, the rising starship looked as though it wanted to personally slam its bulk into the heroes' ship. Were it not for a quick jump to warp, this bully may have gotten its pound of flesh.

Though the arrival of the Intrepid, along with an Excelsior and Sagan-class ship as well, in the subsequent episode, The Bounty is extremely brief, one cannot shake the feeling that these vessels are there to cause trouble. 

So many times in Star Trek's history, the arrival of multiple Starfleet vessels was an opportunity to cheer and celebrate. Here, that same assumption is turned on its head, forcing the audience to remember it is not the ship, but her crew, that decides just how triumphant an arrival it is.

With the Titan-A on the run, framed for destruction and murder, any Starfleet vessel on its tail was sure to fire first, ask questions later (thanks to some well-placed Shapeshifters). Seeing those three formidable ships arrive at the Titan's decoy buoy may have been impressive to behold, yet still served as a symbol of the perversion of Starfleet.
