Here's the Nova-class drawings from the TNG TM, if anyone is unfamiliar with them.

You know, that first ship actually looks a bit like the Defiant pathfinder.

Heheheh....and everyone's whining about the Equinox. I'm sorry, but these Nova concepts are all ugly as hell if you ask me.

I always thought that the Nova class was the bottom-left ship in these drawings.
The bottom-right ship looks more like a concept-drawing of the Klingon Vor'Cha class.

I think the bottom right one looks like a concept drawing for a Galor.
Both have that triangle config of nacelles and being front heavy.

Sorry, but...what stardate is it today? 52-something? These design elements are eight years out of date, that's too much for producers to refer to. They like cranking out brand new ships based on brand new designs; the guys even had a hard time keeping the Enterprise-B an Excelsior, that's how big the pressure is for new and sensational.

I think the Sovereign, Intrepid and Danube classes too bits from all these ships...

-Sovereign nacelles, from top right
-Intrepid Saucer section, from top left
-Soverign Saucer section, from intrepid, from top left
-Danube's, changeable sections from the bottom right
-Intrepid and Soverign Engineering Section from the bottom left ship. (with rear shuttle bay etc.)

on top of Sovereign Intrepid and Danube, taking elements from previous designs, Galaxy, Ambassador , Excelsior, Constitution, Chakotay's Ship and Sydney classes.

Altair: That's what I thought too! The lower left is cool. I've seen some 3D images of it.
