Okay, then the Delta Flyer may have a typo in its warp rating. So, just for clarification, we are counting the net shift in functionality (+2 to -6 in the case of WD speed ratings) of the prototype device. And, that when the speed rating of the WD is shifted, it shifts all three values together (cruising, max. sustainable, and maximum emergency).
On a side note: I have a size 5 ship (okay, it's the Mediterranean-class frigate) that has a separation system. If I wanted to install the FIG impulse engine (requiring me to purchase two units), do I have to purchase two units for each section if I want both separated systems to have impulse capability?
Or, by virtue of the fact that the component parts are likely at least a size smaller than the original vessel, will one pair of impuse engines...one unit on the saucer, the other on the stardrive...be sufficient to drive both sections when separated?
