I would like the Daedalus class to appear, even if it were just a small cameo. Still I doutb it will ever be seen on-screen. Well, not just desktop models

Just curious, did anyone do or find any pics of what the Daedalus should look like? Meaning what would it look like with ENT tech or even modifications to make it look more 'real'?

what if the Daedalus appears, as a Federation ship of the same arrangement of the one conjectured by Jein and Okuda.. but designed with the techniques and stylization of the NX-era? i think itd be an allright compromise....

I dunno...it doesn't look much different than how it looked before...

Seeing I wasnt here to take part in the original debate I thought I would offer my 2 bits.
I would really like to see the Daedalus Class in Enterprise, if not, then at least another Starfleet ship of any type or class...and as far as any more damn freighters, i say "bah!".
Its not a great design (the Daedalus) but, nonetheless, it is the only known class of this era we know of and it would be refreshing to know that there is indeed more to Starfleet than the Archer Boyz out there rounding up freighters and pissing off vulcan captains.
Just a thought.

Well, it's space... so having an aerodynamic starship isn't really needed. So bring on that ship Enterprise... god knows you need a rating's boost.

Of course, a sizable portion of the show's essence is that, as far as useful ships go, Enterprise essentially is Earth's entire fleet, at least at the moment.

I don't think I took part in this discussion. I'd like to see a gradual move towards the look of the Daedalus. Maybe even the Daedalus being the first double-hull starship. Maybe having them at the end? of the series with the Federation forming or something? Maybe the first interplanetary vessel?

Com'on pay attention guys, Daedalus is Federation... not Earth Starfleet. It can't be around for a while yet.

Oh yes. The Daedalus class. The attention grabbing, viewer winning show stealing masterpiece. Forget the Romulans, the viewing public are demanding to see their sphere-and-can!

That's a ridiculous statement. The fact that the only three Daedaluses we've ever heard about were in service in the early Federation era IN NO WAY means that they weren't around in the years preceeding.
And, if you're trying to make some distinction between the Starfleet of the ENT-era and the one from all the other shows, none exists. At least, not in the minds of TPTB or the writers. Why is everyone loving to call it 'Earth Starfleet' so much? It's the SAME organization we've always known, just in its earliest stages of existence. WTF is this 'Earth Starfleet' crapola?
And BTW, the NX-01 is not the only ship SF has. (Shenandoah. Neptune-class surveyors. The 'other ships' mentioned at the beginning of "Fortunate Son.") Enterprise is just the fastest of them, and thus has a more extensive range.
I'd love to see the Daedalus appear on ENT. I wouldn't even mind a small amount of minor tinkering with the design, so long as it looks essentially the same as the desktop model.
