Editing Quantum Torpedo (section)

==Applications==
In 2371, after hijacking the USS Defiant and taking it deep into Cardassian space, Thomas Riker utilized the ship's quantum torpedoes against a modified Keldon-class cruiser just outside the Orias system. The Defiant fired four torpedoes at the cruiser; two hit the ship's ventral hull, and two hit the tail. The damage from these four torpedoes knocked the ship's defense systems offline and caused the loss of main power. (DS9: "Defiant") 

The following year, Captain Sisko utilized the Defiant's quantum torpedoes against the Klingons, as he attempted to rescue the Detapa Council from the Cardassian ship Prakesh. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior") 

Sisko ordered Chief O'Brien to rig the Defiant's two atmospheric probes with quantum torpedo warheads. (DS9: "Starship Down") 

After he traveled back to Earth, in 1947, Quark offered to teach General Rex Denning how to make quantum torpedoes – for the right price. (DS9: "Little Green Men") 

By mid-year, the USS Lakota had received a major upgrade, including a full complement of quantum torpedoes. Admiral Leyton suggested that Captain Benteen should use the increased firepower provided by the Lakota's quantum torpedoes as a means to destroy the Defiant outright. (DS9: "Paradise Lost") 

Later that year, Lieutenant Commander Worf destroyed a Klingon civilian transport ship that suddenly decloaked in front of the Defiant, with a full spread of quantum torpedoes. (DS9: "Rules of Engagement") 
 
The USS Enterprise-E firing quantum torpedoesIn 2373, the USS Enterprise-E used quantum torpedoes in the Battle of Sector 001 to destroy a Borg cube. They were later reused over Earth of 2063 against a Borg sphere that had traveled back in time to sabotage First Contact. Four quantum torpedoes were sufficient to destroy the latter vessel. (Star Trek: First Contact) 

Later that year, Benjamin Sisko ordered Worf to attach a cargo pod containing two hundred kilograms of [[Trilithium Resin]] on to two quantum torpedoes. These torpedoes were designed to detonate in the atmosphere of [[Solosos III]], causing the planet to be uninhabitable for humans, and forcing the Maquis colony there to be evacuated. (DS9: "For the Uniform") 

In 2374, the USS Valiant utilized quantum torpedoes in its engagement with a Jem'Hadar fighter. (DS9: "Valiant") 

Later that year in the First Battle of Chin'toka six quantum torpedoes were used by an unknown ship to destroy one of the off-line Cardassian orbital weapon platforms. (DS9: "Tears of the Prophets") 

In 2375, the Defiant destroyed a Breen warship with a spread of quantum torpedoes during the Second Battle of Chin'toka, before it was destroyed by the Breen's new energy dampening weapon. (DS9: "The Changing Face of Evil") 

As the new USS Defiant pushed on towards Cardassia Prime, during the final battle of the Dominion War, Worf reported that the ship had used all but forty-five of its quantum torpedoes. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind") 

As of 2379, quantum torpedoes had yet to completely replace the photon torpedo on the largest Starfleet vessels. The USS Enterprise-E had only one quantum torpedo bay located on the lowest deck of the saucer module, just forward of the deflector dish. (Star Trek Nemesis)
