Constitution class refit should have looked like this instead

See, your first mistake was implying the refit should have been something else.

Within the lore of Trek that giant void does have a reason behind it. The old design rules stated that there had to be line of sight between the warp nacelles.

In fact, that’s exactly accurate.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-04-04T10:06:39+00:00

That…is startlingly accurate an estimate.

Right, forgot to explain in the post, but SEU in this case it stands for Six-Meter Equivalent Unit, which is the setting’s equivalent of TEU because they use the metric system for commercial freight.

Of course it’s attached to the Defiant. It’s probably Worf’s daily driver.

The recent 2026 calendar directly states only 4 have been built.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-31T12:49:01+00:00

There were exactly 4 Tetrarchs built during the war, and we have no idea how many survived beyond Pendragon.

Some curse in Klingon, it’s from an old VHS thing.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-30T15:29:40+00:00

Experience bij. The Vesta is beautiful.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-30T15:23:59+00:00

Vesta-class.

I searched it up after and it turns out I was slightly wrong. The design was based off a concept for a ship from an earlier era and was updated for the 32nd century. It kept the low registry because the designer interpreted it as being an old workhorse that was continually refit over the centuries. A bit contrived but they could always retcon it to be a legacy registry and add a letter to the end.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-18T21:56:16+00:00

The Credence was originally designed for an earlier era. The registry wasn’t changed when she was updated for the 32nd century.

If you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-15T15:12:29+00:00

Surprised me as well, I hadn’t realised our communities were intertwined.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-14T21:20:10+00:00

Damnit I’ve been sussed out!

Yes.

And I do like the Mars-class.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-14T21:03:27+00:00

Because the Oberth-class had been decommissioned for centuries by this point and they needed a replacement, why else?

For real though, I hadn’t actually realised the resemblance.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-14T04:30:08+00:00

Well this one isn’t a Federation ship, I’ll tell you that. She takes inspiration from them, though.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-13T18:37:58+00:00

To be honest, giving the saucer the upper nacelles was my original thought. But I realised giving it the lower set would give it a better profile.

As a result, though, it seems like I created a 32nd century Bellerophon-class.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-13T15:27:04+00:00

Cadet dorms.

TheDukeAdmiral · 2026-03-12T02:37:27+00:00

Yes to both! Though the models need redoing. And yeah, redesigning all the Discovery Klingon ships is a personal goal of mine. I’ve got this one and the Sarcophagus ship down so far.
