[quote=@Ophidian]Why yes. Those warheads are more primitive then those fielded by the Federation and the Universal Union. Perhaps even inferior to them in most aspects.
[/quote]Don't worry, Federation Starfleet doesn't have that many ships. Expect one or a couple of starships fighting your massive fleet. Generally the security of a system can be guaranteed by one decently equipped starship alone.
I am kinda going with TOS Star Trek's interpretation of how starships were used.
Think of star systems as countries and a starship as a nuclear aircraft carrier. One coasting close to your waters is usually scary enough.
