Federation Class Dreadnought Star Trek Blueprints from 1978

These diagrams are mind-blowingly good.

The predecessor to the foley class

Did you notice that the saucer separation is noted on the blueprints? It's noted near the Aft Outer view.

I look forward to seeing the rest of this blueprints. Something quite enjoyable just seeing these pages being poured over. Many thanks Captain.

I have a series of ST Ship schematics called the Jakill's series by Eric Kristiansen. They were first produced around 1993 and he still has a site to order them from. They cover ships and stations from TOS, TNG, DS9 and VOY. Both alpha and beta canon designs are covered.

Wait, at 16:55, this thing had a cloaking device? "CDR - Cloaking Device Room"

“All dimensions in metric system of United Nations - Earth.” Guess we know which system won out…

This would make a very nice model build my friend

How can this be from 1978 when the bridge layout is clearly inspired by the TMP bridge? The first sheet even says something about the chairs on the bridge having "motion-restraint armrests". I wonder if whoever drew these up visited the TMP set or somehow got some inside info during filming?

I do wonder what "endurance at light year velocity" is supposed to mean as it sounds like gibberish and nothing else. The side view cutaway honestly exhibits some really criminally bad "hotel syndrome" as its all just rooms without really any allocation for machinery, especially noticeable in the secondary hull with the lack of any Deuterium/Antideuterium tanks and the tertiary bridge being right against the back of the main forward sensor array which really should have equipment behind it for it to actually do anything. The actual by deck views are kinda only marginally better as more than anything its rooms, rooms, and water tanks (with criminally inefficient packing). For that matter why is so much of the systems on a per-deck arrangement, it turns everything into human height sandwiches and really curtails the size of cargo any of the badly shaped and unnecessarily constrained bays can house, along with not being connected to any adequately sized corridors for large equipment transport.

I would like to get blueprints of this ship. Where could we find them?

[@StuartFoleyCaptainFoley]

Secondary market unfortunately. I would say search eBay.
