Another unusual Beta canon ship. 😊 Great design.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

I think so too! :)

[@vintvarner16]

I like it, always a sucker for the Miranda rollbar, if this ship was successful it would have been a huge tactical advantage for the Federation due to being so heavily armed with different weapon choices

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Completely agree :)

[@riccardogemme]

True, it also looks very easy to attach it anywhere, to any design. In time of crysis if would have been a good and easy boost to firepower.

[@jamesberry3230]

a simple answer is to add a second warp core thus doubling the power

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Unfortunately James, that is not an easy or simple fix... Warp Cores generate HUGE amounts of energy, thus why only 1 is generally used in a starship... When you begin adding more, there is simply no where for the excess power to go... It would be like taking your cell phone, which is designed for 1 battery, adding a second one to run simultaneously and at best what you would do is completely fry your phone... Im terms of starships, you'd quickly cause a core breach!

No, not really werksmith... The problem is that older models like that, dont have the quality aspects to be usable, like rounded edges. So no matter how i remake the textures, they will always look odd and not fit the standards of the channel!

[@OllamhDrab]

Seems vaguely familiar. Did it come in one of those big white envelopes of starship blueprints someone on my 'crew' got at a con in the 80s? Those guys seemed to love sticking 'megaphasers' on things. :) I think they had one called the Alaska class that we kinda liked. (Our long-running RPG world featured a number of other ships and starbases we'd interact with recurringly, different personalities of captains, fleet politics, starbase administrators here and there. Sometimes there was an Alaska class USS Vincennes bein the big kid on the block. It was kinda TOS movie/Enterprise refit era. That Alaska class looked maybe like an Enterprise-refit style Excelsior forerunner. Kinda long, similar proportions. I don't quite see it on a quick Google search. )

[@riccardogemme]

I really like the design of this one

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Niiice!

[@balrighty3523]

This looks like it would have been the precursor to the Ulysses dreadnaught (seen in the Starfleet Command and Klingon Academy video games). It might even be the explanation why the Ulysses had its dual interconnecting necks: the ship was housing two vertical (well, angled) warp cores to combat the power issues the Longbow experienced.

You cant just add a second warp core. It would be like adding a second battery to your cell phone, it would simply burn it out, as there is no way to utilize the excess energy on a constant basis.

[@robertsettles2180]

@@TriAngulumAudioStudios Can a warp core be run at half power? If it could, you could have two running at 50% to power the ship under normal circumstances, then in a combat scenario crank one up to 100% to run the ship's basic systems, and the other could go at 100% devoted to just weapons and shields. Of course I failed warp theory in school so I could be wrong! Lol

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

No, you are incorrect. It's not like a battery that way! Due to matter/ antimatters ratio being 1 to 1, while active it is generating the same amount of power, which is distributed as plasma to the various systems of the ship. Put simply, there isnt a way to add a second warp core as it would generate far too much power without a way to bleed it off, especially in normal operations!

[@ralphsexton8531]

According to the older tech manuals I own (which pretate TNG and are probably older than the channel host), the items on the engine pylons and facing aft above the shuttle bay are long range sensors, fir listening in on enemy forces. The Miranda rollbar has the Megaphasers. These were only ever called pulse phasers in the DS9 tech manual, but since they were never used there, how would they know? In fact, the only time we EVER saw them fired was Wrath of Khan, and he had the power turned way down, so he could actually gloat over Kirk... and after Reliant's warp core was knocked out, they never fired at full power.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Sorry, you are incorrect on all accounts A) Im older than you (and most manuals) are unless you've been a Trek fan for 50 years or more as I have... Besides, age really has nothing to do with anything, which brings up my next point...B) Nothing you've said is really true! Your assumptions about the Wrath of Khan are not backed up in Canon or Beta Canon, which actually says the opposite of what you wish was true. In future, before commenting, do better research and not confine yourself to assumptions and 1 source! Take care

[@james8449100]

So that's where the culture of next Tuesday came from

[@randybentley2633]

Given that this was unlikely to be deployed on 5yr missions, thus requiring less cargo capacity need, it would stand to reason that a second updated horizontal warp core could be added to this intimidating design. As to the Lance's, they could be switched out for an over & under pair of the proven mega phasers. All that it'd require is an additional mount. This is a bit of a nitpick, but if you pay any abide to the Roddenberry Rules of Starship design, which were seemingly followed by the production designers in regards to the Canon ships, then shouldn't the nacelles be oriented so that the grills have line of sight...? As always, it's a stellar video. :)

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

First, there is no such Roddenberry rule... This a myth created by Roddenberry himself when he and Franz Joseph got in to an argument over Gene using his starship designs in TMP. And the reason this becomes a myth, is because Roddenberry himself often broke the rule in designs he signed off for in TNG. You cant say theres a rule, and then not abide by it yourself... And no, the Production Designers didnt follow that supposed rule, see the USS Stargazer from TNG, who's nacelles ARE on their side! Second, you cant just add a second warp core. It would be like adding a second battery to your cell phone, it would simply burn it out, as there is no way to utilize the excess energy on a constant basis. Third, the Mega Phasers didnt work in this design to begin with, so you would be just swapping one problem for another! Lastly, all great dieas/ Comments/ suggestions, thank you for the support! Keep Trekkin'

[@billphillips5821]

Each Mega Phaser Lance should have its own smaller horizontal warp core built into the housing. Probably crewed by its own engineering team and have its own matter/anti-matter supply, allowing for simultaneous firing.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Unfortunately Warp Cores dont work that way! You cant (generally) have any more than one functioning on a starship... The amount of Energy a Warp Core creates is simply TO large to bleed off by a Phaser Lance! IE it would be like you trying to power your phone directly from a Nuclear Reactor!

[@admiralmorgenthaler3227]

What source did you get the Longbow Class?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

FASA

[@sarreqteryx]

I know warp drive doesn't work the same as a thruster would, BUT, yet another design that looks like it'll flip itself over the first time warp is engaged. If anything, this thing will need a VERY wide for its size warp field.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

I dont think it looks that way at all... And definitely you're thinking is just wrong given the mechanics of space, this isnt a car or plane you know lol

[@CellarSinger]

Have you ever done a video of old vs new warp scales?

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Ive done multiple videos on the different warp scales under the series title of Trek Facts!

[@fadelsukoco3092]

I wonder, what if they had equipped the ship with an extra warp core by extending the neck structure and adding more thickness and armoring around it, as well as making the impulse engine larger to cover it up? This way, there would be more power to allocate to all the different weapon systems, and, so long as the ship wasn't produced in massive numbers, the additional construction and maintenance cost of having a warship with 2 warp cores could be justified by having the asset be available when they might not need it instead of it not being available when they really did need something like it.

[@livingchutoy5422]

An interesting, if not unique, kitbash design. One issue though, and just a personal opinion, is the addition of the Lance phasers. They seem way too overkill in terms of offensive capabilities and heavily against the Federation policy of not creating warships. To boot Starfleet engineers would have know the standard Warp cores (even the new ones) woyld not have the power or stability to power them. Starfleet wotld have been well aware of the power requirements for such weapons and would jot have deployed them like this with performing some form of trials. Starting out with equipping one and then seeing how it performed before just attaching two more. This class was doomed to fail right out of space Dock if they failed to account for power requirements for all weapons systems aboard the class. Almost like they wanted it to fail at that point.

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Not at all, this is brand new technology! So testing it to discover its true limits is very different than theory on paper... This happens in real life ALL the time! See cell phones, computers, cars, airplanes etc etc making your ideas completely moot!

The USS Kitbash…

[@zasher7800]

My question is: why should a kitbash-ship have a NX-Registry? doesn't make sense. also in-universe this ship would be build from approved and tested parts on a also preexisting spaceframe. so there would no experimental status necessary,

[@TriAngulumAudioStudios]

Incorrect on ALL accounts! First off, canon has shown us that the NX Registry is given to ANY class that is the first test subject for the line! SEE Excelsior, Prometheus etc etc.. So it makes absolute sense! Second, Your comment on "in-universe this ship would be build from approved and tested parts on a also preexisting spaceframe. so there would no experimental status necessary" is also untrue. If that were the case, then Starfleet would NEVER have technological breakthroughs or upgrade it's tech , as they will always NEED a test vessel for any new concepts or technology to prove it would work! Sorry, you've got nothing here!
