The top ship definitely has a neck of sorts, even if one just to run two pylons off the bottom of. If you were going to do a Miranda version of an Intrepid (unless you consider that to be the Yeager), this might be how you'd do it.

I like random excelsiors and Miranda’s. Utility! Reuseable design , built martian tough

Don't get me wrong, I like those classes very much. But I very much like to see Intrepids, Defiants, Akiras and Steamrunners in this post-Nemesis time period.

With the new 'This Season on Star Trek Lower Decks' trailer it is clear that we have at least two different ships types (besides the California-Class): One Miranda-like ship type (look at time code 0:51) and then another one with a triangle-shaped dish (or whatever) beneath the saucer section (at 0:59).

Can't tell if it's one of the kind(s) we've seen already.

I’m not 100% certain, but I think it’s the same type as the ship in the lower right corner of the first picture on page 2.

Congratulation, Lee, you found the ship that I marked with the 0:51 timestamp.

I believe it is indeed a new ship. The angle of the pylons are not the same. The one from the previous page has an acute angle (maybe like the USS Centaur), and the new ship has curved ones, more like the Nebula.

There's a good picture of the MSD and it explains the significance of the yellow paint job.

Yes, the yellow paint job is an interesting new concept!
