[QUOTE]Originally posted by Bernd: [QB] [QUOTE]Since I just can't believe in the concept of hastily thrown-together starships, ALL of these classes are "real", factory-built, series-production vessels to me. Except when I feel really desperate about getting rid of the ugliest of them...[/QUOTE]Just my opinion too. http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/centaur.jpg http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/intrepid-variant1.jpg http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/excelsior-variant2-official.jpg Here is something that came to my mind when I created the Centaur side view: Could the ship be actually much smaller than the Excelsior, also considering that there is a Miranda bridge and a complete Miranda roll bar, even with the phaser cannon? The nacelles are not from the Excelsior, although they have similar overall proportions. I have no idea where they are taken from, but the cross-section is more rounded. Finally, the saucer is hardly recognizable as one of the Excelsior. So may we be dealing with a 200m long scout ship after all? The same may go for the Curry and Raging Queen (once I stop denying that the nacelles are really that large), but here the problem with the quite obvious Excelsior comnponents is more severe.
