Description

Inspired by the work done by , I thought I'd give my own spin on a more dedicated warship. The Defiance class are Starfleet's rapid-response warships.

Based on the Constitution class, but with an elongated engineering hull, a somewhat more spacious (and better armed) main hull, and the Crossfield warp engines on straight pylons. Because straight pylons are a nice callback to TOS, and I really like them.

Also, I now know why I never did full five sided views of my ships before. getting everything to line up and match is a LOT of work, and my hat off to and the others who did so before.

Stats:

Craft: Defiance-class
Type: Battlecruiser
Length: 360 meters
Crew: 48 Officers, 180 Enlisted
Passengers: Up to 12 (in Staterooms)
Evacuation Capacity: 2,900 (in shuttle and cargo bays)
Cargo Capacity: 410 metric tons
Consumables: 1 year
Maximum Warp Factor: 9.63
Standard Cruising Warp Factor: 6.0
Weapons: 8x Dual Phaser Banks, 9x Single Phaser Banks (blue; pulsed)
4x Projectile Launchers (sharing a single ready magazine of 24x MkIV Photon Torpedoes, plus another 36 in a hull armory; multiple sensor probe types available)
