[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] The model from T+T is NOT different from the TOS model! Why does everyone say that it is? There is EXTREMELY SLIGHT detailing on the hull that is not quite the perfectly smooth and low-detailed TOS model, but the model was built by Jein to represent the TOS ship. It's not any different, really. Here's the battlecruisers we've seen in chronological Trek time: 1.) 2150 ship from "Unexpected" (ENT) with rear impulse engines, (and torp tube??) no class verbally identified. 2.) The TOS ship with no rear impulse engines, established by Okuda to be D-7 class and verbally mentioned onscreen as D-7 in "Trials + Tribble-ations" (DS9). 3.) TAS cruiser with no rear impulse engines, identical to D-7 exept for protrusions on forward pod and neck. Identified verbally as D-5 class in "Once More Unto the Breach" (DS9). 4.) TMP/TUC/TNG/DS9 cruiser with different forward pod, rear impulse engines and torp tube, and voluminous greeblies and such on hull. Established to be K't'inga class originally in Gene Roddenberry's novelisation, later by Okuda in Encyclopedia and by Sternbach in DS9 Technical Manual, though not as yet spoken onscreen. 5.) Cruiser from "Prophecy" (VGR) explicitly caled D-7 in dialogue, with K't'inga-like features such as rear impulse engines and torp tube. So, we're in a bit of a muddle. I'd be inclined to say it's the same deal as w/the Miranda, and that the D-7 just has some variants, at least one of which resembles the K't'inga. -MMoM :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
