is'nt the name the O'Neil class CRUISER
- its a cruiser so quit changing it assholes
- It's never called an O'Neill-class cruiser in any episode, and the only thing that gives it a full name so far is the DVD Collection magazines which call it an O'Neill-class ship. O'Neill-class cruiser is therefor fanon. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 15:17, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
it was called a battleship by the asgard and on wikipedia
- Wikipedia is not a canon source, and every ship gets called a battleship...they're all ships that do battle. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 19:05, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
it is never clasified a ship in any official source
- It's called the O'Neill-class ship in several issues of The DVD Collection magazine. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 10:36, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
why does this site call it a cruiser on several pages
Where is it ever stated that the O'Neill-class uses Naquadriah for fuel?
WARSHIP NAMES ARE IN CAPS, Civilian vsls are not; Bother are in italics. (I didn’t bother to change it because it’s too small an article to bother with; It’s actually SMALLER that the wikipedia main article- ¿Doesn’t it strike any of you that that’s a BAD thing?) Andering REDDSON.
Is Neutronium the fuel? It's powered by Neutrio-ion generators, which use neutronium. Naquadria is only found on Langara and is unstable, so why would the Asgard use it. People keep changing it. —Anubis 10545 23:56, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
- Until we're told otherwise, we have to go with what official sources say and so far the only official source is Stargate SG-1: The DVD Collection 22 which states that it uses naquadria as fuel as can be seen here. If people change it again, then please change it back. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 01:22, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
First of all, though the Wikipedia article is larger, it really sucks. Did you read it, that is a really bad article. If nothing else ours at least pretains to the class. We have seperate articles for the O'Neill, Val Halla ,etc. And second, though it may not make much sence, the DVD does say it uses Naquadria.User:Phoenix304 19:40, 9-8-08.
Hey, I know this is just speculation but...As big of a fan of the 304 as I am, did they ever think of building an O'Neill. I mean, I know it would take a lot of time and resources, but the end result is definitly worth it. Come on, its the only ship capable of destroying replicator blocks with sheer fire power. And its a hell of a lot faster than a 304. Stick a few Asgard plasma beam weapons on one of these and...well, let's just say the Wraith wouldn't know what hit them.User:Phoenix304 19:40, 9-8-08.
The ship cant be fueled by naquadria, did the Asgard even have any knowledge of it in the first place ?? —Kwoosh..x 22:36, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

- The Asgard are a highly advanced and intelligent race. They probably knew about naquadria before Thanos began experimenting on it. —AscendedAlteran 02:21, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
- the Goa'uld had naquadah in their possession for thousands of years and only one goauld ever was able to create naquadria (by freak chance mite i add) even if the asgard had of been able to create naquadria it would be different to the naquadria that was found on langara as it was created in different ways and...Anubis was as/a lil less/a lil more inteligent to the asgard and he had never though of altering naquadah to create naquadria...i severly dout that the asgard had it in ther best intrests to study naquadah for possibly a thousand years to use as fuel when they already understood neutronium and how it could be used as fuel and a power source...so AcendedAlteran i dout your hypothosis sorry —Kwoosh..x 17:20, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
- Alright, try this one: The Asgard learned of naquadria from the Tau'ri. During the Prometheus' maiden flight, the O'Neill-class ship that Thor brought to meet the Prometheus probably scanned it to determine its capabilities. Since it was using the naquadria reactor core at the time, they would have detected the differences from naquadah almost immediately. Even if they didn't deliberately scan the vessel, they're sensors would have discovered the differences in energy signatures anyway. In addition to that, the Asgard helped install the Asgard systems on the Prometheus, since the Tau'ri technicians had no idea how to handle the technologies at the time, and the Tau'ri technicians probably discussed their previous attempts at hyperdrive technology. —AscendedAlteran 17:43, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
- Then why would they replace the naqudaria engines on the prometheus and daedalus class ships for asgard ones :S they would have just left the engines as they were and made some minor adjustments but no the naquadria core has never been seen again since it was abadoned for asgard technology, hence the asgard did not use naquadriah...plus it would have taken time for the the asgard to develop enough naquadraia to use and a method of stabalising its energy output if they did scan the prometheus and plan on studying the compound which would seem pointless because the naquadriah is unstable and wouldnt be reliable, especialy during the war with the replicators, the next thing they didnt want was unreliable ships and they end up dieing a few years later anyway so why go through all the trouble. —86.29.196.9 15:36, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Why are we assuming that the O'Neill class does not have any Asgard Beam Weapons. It seems more likely that the first few models that did not, but that later models would have incorporated them. After all, why would they create advanced weapons if not to use them.
It seems like they used some kind of particle weapon, u can see it at the battle in camelot.
What i don't understand is why didn't the asgard send a few oneil's to the milky way to destroy some ori motherships i would say 2 oneil class vessels could take out an ori warship without plasma beam. At the beginning of the Ori crusade 4 warships came through the supergate, by that time the asgard had built about 8-12 oneil class vessels, if the asgard sent 8 oneil class vessels to the milky way (2 for each ori warship) they would have taken out all of the ori warships with minimum damage to the asgard oneils (80% chance none of the asgard ships would be destroyed). Then the asgard send 75% of their bliskner class ships with the other oneil class vessels to destroy the other 7 ori warships which came through the supergate as the second wave. Then earth can find another black hole in the pegasus and do exactly what they did the first time to block the supergate. Then earth is pretty much safe.
half the size of atlantis? wtf, we know that the asgard power source is much inferior to that of ancients, how can they power that kind of ship with what they have? doesnt make sense..
oh and is it safe to assume that the oneill class can get to pegasus from earth in a few hours?(according to 1200 ly/5sec)?
now in atlantis, asgard are pulled to give a lift to pegasus, and they do it in 4 days, now either they sent a very slow ship, or the writers just wanted to lower the asgard true status because they need stargate atlantis to keep attracting new people(who wants to see a tv show about a race that is not the most powerful and awesome ever?)
Im pretty sure it took them 4 day cause they were towing Tau'ri ships with them.
Also i think we can safely assume the asgard are by now more advanced than the ancients.
And in all likelyhood they have better power sources.
And i dont think they are nearly the size of half of a City ship, they were clearly smaller.
- I'm not sure but I believe that Weir said that it took about a week for an Asgard ship to travel to Atlantis. SGA: Misbegotten Oberoth20 (talk) (Contribs) 01:53, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
- What took 4 days? They're not. They don't. Not half the size of a City ship, not even close. —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 18:49, October 1, 2010 (UTC)
- 4 days to get from earth to atlantis in an asgard ship, which doesnt make sense with what we already know about asard hyperdrive speed..(aka 1200 ly/5 sec in sg1 with oneill class), and about the size, here in stargate wiki, it says oneill class in 1500x700, and the city ship according to http://forum.gateworld.net/threads/8146-Size-of-the-city/page3 is about double the size of asgard oneill class ship. so yea.. half the size.
Power Source & Hyperdrive[]
From to artical it says that the neutrino-ion generators were 'redesigned' to use naquadriah. This upgrade would have probably been introduced during the middle of SG1 Season 8 at the least, after the 'test phase'.
And as for the maximum speed of the Asgard ship the Asgard hyperdrive is capable of a 'Flank' Speed which is faster than it's normal speed which is about one million light years per day seeing that the Deadalus was able to make a 4 million light year trip from Earth to Atlantis in around 4 days with a ZPM.
