Err, still looks like a Karemma to me.

What about the curved section connecting the both nacelle-struts, that seems to be absent in the modelpic.

I wonder where that second Karemman design is from - the one without the forked bow? This Bajoran-operated freighter just above the foremost winged impulse ship seems to be another redesign of the Karemman ship, but a rather drastic one, with the nacelles moved forward/shortened and the bow altered more than in the drawing. And it definitely can't be the same ship as the foamcore mock-up, since the nacelles are in the wrong position here.

The curved piece joining the pylons might simply be missing from the foamcore temporarily, or then not considered necessary for portraying the general shape of the actual model. The nacelle and aft hull proportions seem to otherwise match the original Karemman ship so well that it's still the best fit I can think of.

Hmm. All three Karemman variants look very nice. And it would make sense for there to be such minor variation between freighter classes - it's more pleasing and realistic than having such major variation as is usually displayed by Starfleet ships.

Hrngrh. Something wrong with the address above. Oh, well - go from that page to "Fleet Pictures" and then to "Bajoran Blockade Fleet".

Heh - the second 'Battle' picture in the Cardassian-Jem'Hadar sections is the best side view of a Sabre I've ever seen.
