[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [qb] The Sovereign, Steamrunner, Akira et. al. are simply part of a different design family that predates, or runs concurrently, with that of the Galaxy paradigm. What's wrong with that? It's not apples and oranges in starship design; if anything, it's BMWs and Mercedes. Both made by the same state, both having the same numbers of engines and nacelles/wheels. But are they the same? Nope... Mark[/qb][/QUOTE]Perhaps they a from different design teams on different Ship yards? You could say that all of the Galaxy family came from Utopia Planitia and were themselves designed from the un-used prototypes and concept work from the Galaxy-Class Project. While similarly the Sovereign was being developed at San Francisco and some of the FC ships were also based on the early development work. So we have two differnt "Families" being built at the same time, off of different projects on different yards and both culminating in the full scale parent ships that look distinctly different. The only real difference between them is that the Soverign was launched about a decade after the Galaxy, so we may assume that the projects were also 10 or so years apart, giving the Sovereign the advantage of starting from a more advanced standpoint than the Galaxy.
