![]() ![]() It was then built by Greg Jein with considerable simplifications as the Enterprise-C for TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise". The Ambassador design is based on an early TNG concept by Andrew Probert.First launched in the early 24th century, the Ambassador is among the aging ship designs in the 2360's. The class appears to be an intermediate design between the Excelsior and Galaxy classes. General description The Ambassador class is a bulky starship type equipped for scientific missions as well as for combat. Length of the ship according to the official Picard season 3 scale chart posted by Dave Blass.The Alita was designed for Star Trek Online, as one of many variations of the Akira class.14 ships of this class appeared in the doomed fleet in PIC: "Vox" and "The Last Generation".General description The Alita class is a relatively large type of starship that resembles the Akira class, although the two have no major components in common. The Akira class has never been shown in its role as a carrier with a fly-through hangar deck, and fighters of the presumed Peregrine class probably wouldn't fit through the doors (but Danube runabouts would, also on non-military missions).These are placed as follows: 2 port side saucer, 2 starboard, 1 forward facing under the deflector dish in the main hull, plus 4 forward, 3 port rear, 3 starboard rear in the weapons pod. The ship is supposed to have as many as 15 torpedo launchers, as stated in Star Trek: The Magazine. The weapons pod is a swap-out component, much like the pod of the Nebula class. According to Alex Jaeger, the Akira class is a military minded ship.I won't make up an in-universe reason for the striking similarities between the NX class and the 200 years younger Akira class. ![]() I have decided to ignore the NCC-65549 from the Fact Files, and assign NCC-63898 to the Spector. They confirm NCC-63549 for the USS Thunderchild on the hull. The diagrams in Star Trek: The Magazine and the Official Starships Collection are directly derived from the Akira CGI. This is also the case on the ILM size chart, where the information for the Fact Files seems to come from, although here the Thunderchild is NCC-63898. The named ships in the above list appear in the Star Trek Fact Files where the registry of the USS Thunderchild diagram is NCC-65549 instead of NCC-63549, while the latter number is assigned to the USS Spector. There is confusion about the Akira registries.The size of the ship is discussed on a separate page.Two ships are on display at the Fleet Museum in PIC: "The Bounty". 18 ships of this class appeared in the ill-fated fleet in PIC: "Vox" and "The Last Generation". It also appeared in DS9 and VOY episodes and made it to Picard in "The Stargazer" and "Farewell" (here reusing the names and correct registries of three established ships of the class). The Akira class was designed by Alex Jaeger of ILM for "First Contact" and exists only as a CGI model.The Akira has two shuttlebay doors at the rear and one central door at the front end of the saucer.Īrticle: The Fleet in PIC: "The Star Gazer" and "Farewell" A weapons module is located at the top between the two secondary hulls. The warp pylons are swept downward and are affixed at their upper ends to two catamaran-like secondary hulls, which run into the top of the saucer section. ![]() General description The Akira class is a relatively large type of starship with heavy armament.

My own modelling skills weren't up to the task, and Tadeo was very kind to model this. Tadeo D'Oria ( /) for 3D modelling the Runabout car seats. I feel these plans would not be as polished without his help over the past year. Washburn for research into Runabout seats, feedback, proof-reading, error checking and suggested improvements. There are a few people to thank for this project: I think the set is ideal for fan films, and if anyone builds a set from these plans, I would love to know. These plans should be of help to anyone who wants to build their own Runabout cockpit in cg or as a physical build. After over a year of work, the Runabout Project is finally here - blueprints for the cockpit as it first appeared in the DS9 pilot episode. ![]()
