They always tend to remind various people of various empires that I hadn't thought off.

But yeah that's fine. It's actually simmilar to what they did with the Troodontid's Dragon Class. The Troodontids (you probably know this already) literally tested the ship by sending it right into a War-Imperial fleetbase in Katar Plazith (during the Great Deceiver they had a presence there before the Domintus called them back), which it single-handly decimated. So the Imperium kept provoking the Troodontids into sending Dragon classes after them, testing how it worked and learing it's weaknesses. Finally they used the Troodontid's hubris against them, captured a complete Dragon class where they the least expected it (ironically in a Troodontid shipyard), and towed it back to War-Imperial space. They did so under heavy fire when they left the shipyard, making use if the outstanding points of the captured vessel (heavy shielding + strong hull) to take it to their own space in one piece.

So it's not far-fetched that the Imperium would try to do the same with the Spring day. Time will tell if they are sucesfull or not, but they will certainly try to it that it's weapons are taken offline first.
