i have to disagree with you Ewm. The Klingon's are a very intelligent race, 1st off they got the Romulans to give them there cloak technology. It was a Klingon engineer i think who saved all those ship in a battle with the breen, all the federation ships just sat around with thumbs up there ass's and come late dominion war i can only imagine that mostly if not all of there ships were severely upgraded and customized to a point where they could rip the balls off of a brass monkey with there nose.

It was a Klingon engineer who adjusted the Tritium matrix in his ships warp core who accidently made that lone BOP invulnerable to the Breen weapon..so Martok had all the ships in the empire adjust their reactors the same way. Until Kira and Odo brought back the JemHadar ship with the Breen energy weapon The Federation and Romulan ships were still vulnerable to the weapon...and therefore the Klingons had to carry the brunt of the abuse for a while..
