Redirect to original
Description As with the Hermes class, I decided to redo this ship.  Have a secondary hull at 3/4 the scale of the Constitution class, meaning 42% internal volume of the original.  And I want to add a couple of shield generators on it later.

And yes, it was inspired by the USS Kelvin.

Oh, speaking of the Kelvin, if you found the number 47 here, try to find JJ.  Same clue, "Stand back?!"

I know the Star Trek V reference but I'm just missing it on the ship.

I see you named the ship the USS Kelvin AFTER the Kelvin in the JJ 2009 movie

Secondary hull. Something Jim Kirk was a little out of practice over -- just like the number 47 on the saucer.

not seeing it sorry.

Also you need to stop leaving scavenger hunt things on your ships for people to find.

Neither do I. I had to look it up online. I have a hard enough time with the military lingo, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

Hence "Stand back?!" BOOM. "What are you standin around for? Do you not know a jail break when you see one?"

Star Trek V. Scotty breaks the trio out of the brig

"Morse code?"
"S.. T... A... N... D... second word B... A... C... K"
"Stand back?
STAND BACK!"
Scotty blows the wall on the cell opening it to the jefferies tubes on the Enterprise A to free Kirk, Spock and McCoy
"What are yall standin around for? Do ye not know a jail break when you see one?"
