Imagine, if you will, Han Solo suddenly found himself beseiged by the Enterprise. Would the Millenium Falcon be able to defeat Captain Kirk?
I'm pretty sure the Millenium Falcon would easily be able to defeat the Enterprise. Really, the Enterprise is a sluggish science vessel whose captain was more interested in chasing alien pussy than anything else. All it did was chug along on a straight course, and could do none of the fancy aerobatics that the Millenium Falcon was capable of. This doesn't even bring up the fact that photon torpedos and phasers don't exist; they're literary constructs without any basis in science.
Not to mention that Han Solo was much more cunning and skillful than Captain Kirk. Plus who would you want as your sidekick: Chewbacca, or Doctor Spock - a man who basically sounds like a HP-48 calculator come to life? Also, the Enterprise was burdened with Scottie, a man who was always first to freak out whenever the Enterprise was asked to do anything more than idle. But that's the English for ya! In any event, do you really think the skill of someone who spent half his time trapped in the holodeck could outwit a man of Han Solo's skill?
I think not.
Really the only thing that the Enterprise had going for it were the transporters. I'm sure the Millenium Falcon's shields would repel these like rain off oiled canvas.
All in all, it seems like the Enterprise would have a hard time fending off the Millenium Falcon.
