USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

If we are to believe that STD is in Prime universe, and Discoprise we see now is visual retcon of original Enterprise, what would Refit-Discoprise look like?
I can't see it changing much at all since it already has all the detail needed for a modern TV show.

They'd probably just add a window.

But in-universe it was a major redesign. To the point Kirk didn't know anything about the ship. They'll need at-least TWO new windows.

Since the refit is an "almost totally new ship. You don't know her a tenth as well as I do", they should look fairly different.

Sorry I got the dialogue wrong...

DECKER: Admiral, this is an almost totally new Enterprise. You don't know her a tenth as well as I do.

But, as we've learned over the past year or so, the visuals aren't important and neither is the dialogue.
 
The DSC Enterprise makes the TMP Refit look more like an actual refit instead of a complete rebuild.
Not really. In many ways it is more different to the refit than TOS Enterprise was. The similarities are superficial, the saucer shape for example is completely different, and the secondary hull doesn't match any better than TOS one did.

So it would be almost an entirely new Enterprise

If the current trend continues, something like this is not an unrealistic answer to that question:

That reminds me of some of the artwork from the Best of Trek paperback covers.

It's interesting, in its own way....
 
One thing it isn't is outside the realm of the Discovery aesthetic, especially if we take what there is now and project the series out to 7 seasons or whatever.

:shrug:
It doesn't remotely fit the discovery aesthetic.
Looks like something you'd see in the Kelvin Timeline.

I feel it does if you consider the whole of Discovery as a series, and not just the Discovery version of the Enterprise as its aesthetic is right at this moment.
