How do you know? No, really. How can you POSSIBLY know from one blurry screenshot? And no, if the answer is “They just can’t be, they wouldn’t” then you’ve not been paying attention for the last year.

Er, because I know what the DSC and PIC ships look like, and I don’t see anything that resembles them in that pic. Point out which ships look like Inquiries and Magees to you.

You’re missing my point here. Several times. I said I hadn’t found the Magee yet, but wouldn’t be surprised if there was one given their recent track record in the use of anachronistic FX elements. And there are several ships plainly visible which from what we can see adhere to the “primary hull, possibly secondary too, shallow-angled pylons, and nacelles” model which could easily be Inquiries given our limited sight of them - and that aforementioned track record in inappropriate recycling.

Well, we know that at some point we’re going to see a Hiawatha and a Hoover crash, so they definitely are reusing season 1 & 2 DSC production assets. We just don’t know what the context is of the scene where they crash. I thought it was going to be a flashback to the Burn, but we just got that with the scene I posted a pic of.

I can make out nine different designs. Going from left to right:
1. Spiky ship with four orange lights 2. Twirly ship that's taller than it is long 3. Triangle ship with four nacelles similar to Section 31 ship, nacelles possibly unattached 4. Flat oval ring ship, possibly Romulan? 5. Starfleet ship that we've previously seen as wreckage near the listening outpost 6. Donut ship reminiscent of the "V" mothership 7. Halo sword ship 8. Horseshoe shaped ship 9. Another tall ship, possibly the same one as #2
There are also two or three ships that are really far away; not sure if they're also some of the above or yet more new designs.
I can make out quite a few of the well known Copy-and-Paste class...
