Although originally only barely capable of achieving warp 5, by late 2154, the NX-class was capable of reaching warp 5.2.
It was originally supposed to have 3 Phase Cannons, though by 2154, the USS Enterprise had twelve phase cannons installed. The USS Columbia received pulsed phase cannons, and had polarized armor that was 12% better then that on the Enterprise.
