functioning clone that is indistinguishable from the original. I
call them replicas because they aren't the original ships
themselves.
The_Chieftain: I think it would be an original, actually. There are three
precedents offhand. 1) The new production of Yak 9s. Built
from the original tooling which was laying around after the war
gathering dust, the serial numbers continue. 2) Same with the
Me262s under restarted production, 3) Tornado, the British
locomotive, is considered to be the 50th in the Peppercorn class
despite being built over 50 years after the 49th, and, again, the
serial number is sequential, as she was built to the same plans as
the other 49. So, if you were to build an indistinguishable
Texas, it would be the third New York class ship, not a replica.
Of course, we can also open up the Theseus' Ship
arguments...
