Really?! Galaxy by a long shot. Way smaller than the Galaxy, and while it has stronger armour going by the DITL rankings, and likely more maneuverable. But a full spread of torpedoes (we have no on-screen evidence that the Vorcha can fire any sort of spread) should end the battle quickly.

We also see, on screen, Vor'Cha's being ripped apart quite regularly from various ships both Federation and Dominion starting in Season 4 of DS9. Again, the general thought being that the Klingon's are always a bit behind Starfleet in terms of technology, and on screen we know the Vor'Cha can't be much newer than the Galaxy and is possibly even older.

Vor'Cha vs. Lakota-subtype Excelsior might be better.

War-GCS. That's when they actualy started remembering that those ships could be used as battleships.

The DW-GCS would rape the Vor'cha. I've never had a great respect for the Vor'cha class.

Even that wouldn't be a fair fight. The Lakota would just launch a volley of QTs and bye-bye Vor'cha.

Debate split to its very own thread in the DS9 forum.
