YES!! That is it EXACTLY! Probert's drawing/painting have 2 of them in color doing some form of manuevers, & he'd labeled them up as Starfleet fighters.

That's very ugly! Perhaps if a model was ever made and I could see it in action or just a 3/4 view, it may look better. Or better yet, a refinement. Probert's early E-D drawings were also on the crappy side, but after many refinments, the E-D looks great.

Well, presumably, the pod holds one person. That should give an idea of the size.

Oh, lucky me. I happen to be on the right side of Mim's tastebuds this time...
Eeewww. It looks like it would launch from the ship and then come whirling right back.

Well, sorta...but this drawing looks like a badly interpreted plan drawing.

Looks like the perfect choice for cruising on the weekends and breaking up the occasional slave revolt on Abydos.

That ship looks really nice (the submarine thing). I found the sketch on his page, too, but I have no idea why he did it. Was it for a movie or a computer game or what?

It appears SEGA and McDonalds still exist in the 24th century, according to Probert...
