    or why do not use a battle saucer designated only for battle
    with more phaser strips, torpedo launcher and heavy armor
    but keeping the sensor array of the original saucer or and array optimized for battle

    like in Nebula class who have sensor or battle pod why do not have some pods to attach in place of the saucer or a canon pod or a fighter hangar to launch small fighters , refuel, reload, repair them
    this fighters pod can be separated and stay in place to support fighters when the main ship goes into battle
    this can help deploy fighters to protect a base or a planet from small attack of detect and slow enemy attack until a capital ship can be sent
