That makes sense. How many Vega's are in their navy?
[/quote]I haven't decided yet.
They are developed just a decade or two ago so I figure there's only a limited number of them. Granted, Federation's rate of production and development is crazy compared to our conceptions so as you can expect they are already working on a replacement of the Vega while these ships have yet to fill in the numbers.

As another note the negative stigma of the Last Great War had grown to such extend pretty much mentioning anything war related is like a swear word in the Federation. Especially when associated with someone. The fact alone you have warships and waging war on us is enough to turn the public opinion in Starfleet's favor regardless what we did. Because you're crazy warmongers while Starfleet is apparently better.
