As someone who served in the US Navy, I think you're overlooking one of this design's greatest strengths: Redundancy. This is a HUGE feature in the modern Navy, you have back-ups for EVERYTHING, even engines. This design not only gives you a pair of back-up nacelles you can use if one of them is damaged in a fight, but gives you back-up and independant power supplies on every turret. That is a HUGE advantage in combat, as even if the central power goes down, you can keep fighting! No wonder these lasted as long as they did in universe, they probably just tanked their way through any problem until the Klinks rolled in with their superior firepower. Seriously, you gotta give a warship design like that props for just being too stubborn to die, and having back-ups for its back-ups.

@@sw-gsThe Defiant uses Twin-Phaser Cannons of 24th Design into a compact ship. If the Defiant was larger, it'd likely not rip itself apart. But knowing the Sisko, then he'd probably strap eight of them in for sixteen phaser cannon bursts :D But aside from that, each of these Phasers are tied to their own individual power source which means they never drag power from the main system. That's an enormous benefit to overall fighting prowess, but it also means it cannot take extra power from the warp core to boost the firepower. A game like Starfleet Command deals a lot with system and energy placements. Weapons that take up no energy like missiles can be incredibly powerful. So think that, but a ship that have so much fire power, and none is tied to the warp core, meaning it could just boost it's shield as much as it wants while spraying & praying phaser fire all over the place.

@TCPoleCat Well the problem wasn't really that Klingons had superior firepower in Discovery. It's that they have a cloaked-ramming ship that can just ram ships apart. One Cardenas can blowup a lot of Klingons before succumbing so it becomes a matter of Zerg-tactics. Not to mention implanting a computer virus that ran haywire on Starfleet systems and that was probably the big part of Starfleet's continual losses against them in the Disco-setting.
@chan7428 ай бұрын
I love the predecessor to the warp coasting system. It's fun to create prototypes that are worse than the later developments and give them very specific faults. I can 100% see the engineers on a Cardenas class arguing with the command staff that they need to drop out of warp to degauss the nacelles before the warp field starts to lose cohesion and they go hurling out of a warp bubble. It's a limitation that makes all future ships with 4 nacelles seem so much more powerful.
@bearnaff93878 ай бұрын
It also explains why designs using >2 were uncommon in civilizations that used nacelles. If using nacelle switching requires specialized technological development and all you're getting is better warp field sustainability, it makes more sense to take those two extra nacelles and build an extra ship with them. Since manufacturing most things seems to be a solved issue in the 23rd century, there are probably few cases where the resources to make starships are better spent making one ship when you can make two. If you were in a situation where making the current state of the art was less efficient than making older tech, working out a 4-nacelle ship design using that more mature tech to get increased range at speed _would_ make sense. But, I think the situation is more one where, once a design is ready for manufacture, it's just a matter of budgeting the right amount of energy and matter to the shipyards and you get your starship. At that point, two ships are better than one, even if the one ship can fly for longer without stopping, in almost every situation.

A really strong-looking ship class - the hard "X" of the warp nacelle struts shows a real sense of being a no-nonsense vessel, while the stepped back Bridge, although the 'softest' looking part of the design, is protected by the shoulders of the saucer section, looking like a raincoat that's been pulled up to cover the ears.

@@SportyMabambaRegistry numbers are more to identify an individual ship than to designate a class of ships (like the F-117 or F-35 are - they're a design of plane rather than the individual plane). This works like the naming convention in US Navy ships (e.g. the Yorktown-class USS Enterprise was CV-6, and the USS Yorktown was CV-5). That said, registry numbers in Starfleet are also allocated in blocks, with the lead ship of the class getting the first registry (and usually also the same name as the class, such as the Constitution-class NCC-1700 USS Constitution). It's perfectly feasible that early Starfleet reserved some blocks that ended up being far too large for the class of vessel, so they reallocated parts of them to later classes.

A luxuriously large engineering section even given how big it was for its day, that thing would have been a flying fab shop - and probably had to be, with two shuttlebays, all those phaser turrets to refit, and a loadout that meant one set of nacelles or the other was always being worked on, given Starfleet wanting to get the most out of its then-fantastic warp capabilities. The Cardenas probably needed one shuttlecraft just to fit all the workbees needed to keep the thing working. And kudos to its designer, it feels very much like a Road Not Taken for the Federation - you COULD see this design possibly being extended into the future, with an elongated engineering deck 'stalk' surrounded by hab and science decks, before the "quick-eject" vertical engineering section so emblematic of the Federation took over; it very much feels like detaching the engineering decks was ever so slightly in this ship's future.

With the bridge not being on top it opens up a unexploited opportunity - a _big ass phaser_ on top (and bottom) of the saucer. Having two really heavy phasers in those locations (along with all the current phaser turrets) would give maximum coverage, with both able to hit the same target if its on the same horizontal level as the ship, in front, behind or on either side (except for some pylon blind spots). And still having a single _heavy phaser_ able to hit targets above or below when the enemy has superior angle. So it's always able to hit back. As well, a quick roll can bring the target into view of both heavy phasers. Add a torpedo launcher further back on the hull facing up and a corresponding one facing down, and the ship can still hammer enemy ships that are swooping in on it and in a better position. It would mean that manoeuvrable enemies would have a harder time taking advantage of superior positioning. The extra photon torpedo launchers conver a blind spot, being a "fire everything, get them off us" weapon. Using up your photon inventory is preferable to being destroyed then and there.

I like the lore design choice of the pairs of nacelles taking over from each other to prevent overheating and only when dropped from warp. It very elegantly demonstrates the amount of engineering progress still needed before the Constitution-class design was possible, as well as why the two-pair design didn't become more common after this class. I can also picture how obsolete it would have seemed after ships were able to cruise at warp for longer periods, with these "rapid response" vessels having to stop every 12 hours en route (and I wonder how long it took to switch over between nacelle pairs) while other vessels could just cruise continuously. A really nice choice that shows the stepping stones of technological progress, and how what was once cutting-edge can become irreciverably obsolete.

I really really enjoy your videos, this one in particular I thought I would comment on because I really like the inclusion of John eaves original design for what was meant to become the discovery instead of the enterprise for Star Trek phase 2?? - I hope I’ve got that right? The much more flush and angular designs of this era, I really like. The “very very early on teaser trailer” for Star Trek discovery, showed a ship almost identical to John Eves (I hope I have the spelling right) phase 2 enterprise, coming out of what looks like an asteroid type of space dock to music that was either Klingon or Romulan in its composition if I remember rightly? Watching a little further another element of this era that I love which you mention is the overall mass or scale of these ships and the almost signature “triple red” Bussard Collectors. Not to mention finally the unusual and sometimes surprising position of the bridge, as you mentioned it, not being standardized yet to its sort of centralized Dome position in the saucer. There is some fantastic concept art in the Star Trek phase 2 book that I have coveted for some time since it’s release several decades ago after the Star Trek phase 2 was then turned into the first movie - Star Trek the motion picture.

STO has 8 weapon slots max, so a cruiser(even a free event or fleet one) could in theory push out 24 beams with the "beam:fire at will" attack. Some consoles allow for more phaser attacks all over (doesn't one variant of the Akira have a console that shoots phasers on point defense? And the vengeance from into darkness also has a console that shoots all over if memory serves). And this doesn't even get into the ships with phaser lances that are techncially another built in array with a long charge up. If you drop down to escorts, the Kelvin Einstein destroyer (the actual Kelvin) has an experimental weapon that loads something like 5 unique turret ports as part of the firing animation on the Kelvin itself...but you are sacrificing a regular phaser array for that since escorts/destroyers have 7 weapon slots.. So yeah, you could technically sort of have 26 phasers going off, but I don't think you would see this in practice because you would have multiple beams hitting the same enemy and the beams probably wouldn't fire all at the same time.
