That's not even factoring how many ships the Borg would destroy before a single one manages to impact the cube's hull. I bring up all of this to emphasize one simple point, the Dominion would need to sink many many Jem Hadar warships filled with explosives into each Borg cube to have any hope of destroying it. But to put this in simple terms, a fleet of probably >900 ships did substantially less damage than just 9 bioships, making them arguably 1,000 to 10,000 times weaker than a species that was very effective at fighting the Borg. At the end of DS9, we see the dominion fleet bombard a planet from orbit causing a great deal of destruction to the surface. Turning this back to Dominion vs Borg, we can use this planet-destruction metric to show that the Dominion has exponentially less firepower than Species 8472. The solution to winning a war with the Borg in this way is conceptually relatively simple, have a destructive force much greater than their own.
This is not an adaptive technology of phaser frequency, but a physical limitation as to how much energy a Borg ship can be shielded against. That all you need to defeat the enemy is to hit there ships with more Joules of energy than there shields could possibly endure. What this shows is the Borg still have one sure-fire weakness, the same weakness every race has, to be hopelessly overpowered. That isn't some convenient exploit of a flaw in Borg technology, that's just absurd amounts of firepower. You can think of their immunity to assimilation as an advantage, but I think that pales in comparason to just how absurdly powerful their weapons were.ĭon't remember? Here is an example of 9 ships combining their power to blow up a damn planet.
To change the discussion slightly, let's consider the war between the Borg and Species 8472, a war the Borg were decidedly losing.
