Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but they’re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

I kinda lost it when Janeway fired more photon torpedos than the ship had upon entering the Delta quadrant. Where did she get the extra torpedoes?! She’s a witch!
They figured a way to fabricate their own. Like the shuttles.
Head cannon is that 1/3 of voyager is taken up by a massive shuttle manufactory. It’s never discussed but it must be there…Otherwise, none of this shit makes any sense.😬
The lower decks should have done a joke about the three ensigns on Voyager who did nothing except build shuttles the entire seven years.
“Shuttle’s busted.”
“What happened now?”
“Harry fell in love with a nefarious alien woman.”
“Woo! I guessed right! Pay up!”

There’s a giant board on the wall of the shop with pictures of shuttles they’ve drawn red Xs over.
Good eye!
Sorry, I was head-canoning the scenario. I’m not claiming it was actually there.
They could do it in the shuttle bay, they wouldn’t need much more space than a finished shuttle takes up. We know they have shipboard replimats for larger things, I figure replicating and building standard shuttle models on long voyages has standardized procedures and steps like Lego instructions. You only need to replicate one piece at a time saving on space. Gotta replace your shuttles somehow on those 5 years missions and the nearest Starbase is months away.
Yeah, if designing and building the Delta Flyer only took one episode, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that making more shuttles is easy and boring, and that’s why we don’t see it. Voyager was cutting edge when she was lost too
Ex Astris Scientia calculated that Voyager lost 17 shuttles in the Delta Quadrant.
Now you know what really happened to the Kazan.
They did canonically build the Delta Flyer from scratch.

I was always sad they never explored that sort of thing in an episode, didn’t have to be as big as the Delta Flyer but still!
They did it in Prodigy. The ship has a fully automated vehicle replicator (and hologram Janeway!)
