BRAD'S COMMENTS: Another one of those whacked out "small" ships that actually looks bigger than the NCC-1701-A Enterprise herself! If the saucer and nacelles on this design were to scale with the Constitution-refit, then this ship would be quite large and outweigh even the larger Federation cruisers. And how come the secondary hull has to drop down so far? The ship ends up being at least as tall as it is long; not very sleek nor sexy in my book. For this reason I have rarely used this class, though it does have the benefit of being fairly well armed for a small ship. As with so many others, thanks to Neale Davidson for the fantastic-quality re-draw!
From the FASA Star Trek FEDERATION SHIP RECOGNITION MANUAL, circa 1985
