[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] Is that a pair of aft missile tubes I see, too? Unlike Kobi, I see no problem with the unidirectional nature of the missile tubes. After all, in the Museum timeline, the primary ordinance is warp-guided missiles with a range of 1 to 10 AU. When you're talking ranges like that, initial directions don't matter very much at all. Or should we criticize the US Navy's frigates for not having 45�-angled Tomahawk missile launchers in addition to the normal vertical ones? :p [QUOTE]Too bad it failed...[/QUOTE]See, I'm not 100% sure that it would've "failed" completely. I could see them making a very limited run of these, say 5 or 8 (at most) as a deterrent to deploy along the Romulan border. Of course they'd realize after they started building them that they were completely unnecessary and then cut back the production run, down to just two or three at most. And those few that made it into service didn't perform so swell. After all, at least ONE ship had to have been built for it to be featured in the Starfleet Museum... ;) EDIT: Although I definitely see the better aesthetic of nacelle #1 (used in the latest update), I'm starting to believe more strongly that the original design with nacelle #3 is the way to go. Why? Because they're honkin' big and ugly, for such a honkin' big and ugly ship. Everything about it looks slightly too big and over-proportioned; I think the nacelles should, too. (Which is why it's such a cool design.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
