Can We Talk About The Giant Starship In The Room?

That mystery starship pitted against the USS Enterprise in the last trailer for Star Trek Into Darkness has finally been identified as the USS Vengeance.  A high resolution image was made available via TrekMovie earlier this week with a mixed fan reaction ranging in everything from, “looks like a LEGO ship” and a “Micheal Bay version” to “completely badass”.

And with just a few weeks to go until Star Trek Into Darkness premieres in theaters for us regular folk, despite this big reveal there are still too many questions than answers.  While Starfleet has never really had “warships” it makes sense to have the USS Vengeance in the Abram-verse.

After all, a heavily modified Romulan ship from an alternate future popped up and essentially laid waste to the entirety of Starfleet, and the only way to defeat it was to detonate the USS Enterprise’s warp core.  Clearly Starfleet took the initiative to develop a weapons platform to address any and all future adversaries … which is probably how the Klingons come into play this time around.
