Legacy starships in Disco Season 3

Is it possible that the Miranda-not-Miranda-type may be of an older pre-split Kelvin-era variety?
 
per spoilers for "Die Trying" looks like we have our second legacy ship after the Enterprise-J. The Voyager-J.

...Seen around the 26th century. Since the Enterprise name had a head start of four suffix letters before the Voyager became a contender, we might expect this to persist, so there's an Enterprise-N around somewhere. And that head start was made in a timespan of just one century, or 125 years to be generous with the -nil. Apparently, modern ships are quite a bit longer-lived!

Although we don't really know the age of the Voyager-J in the 32nd. Or of the Enterprise-J in the 26th, for that matter. But the former at least is unlikely to have been truly ancient before the Burn.

Plus isn’t the Enterprise-J the latest model of the Enterprise we’ve seen so far as well?

It is. Even if it's lurking in the wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey nebula of canonicity. I also imagine it wouldn't fit inside the current home of the Federation and Starfleet.

Enterprise-K would be such an obvious nod to Kirk if that were the current ship bearing the registry. Would break the Fourth Wall with all the force of a quantum torpedo.

Ah, an easter egg within an easter egg!

Also, this post is a perfect match for your avatar!

I suppose it is! :)

I can't wait to get my hands on these from Eaglemoss.
 
All I know is I’m hoping we see some of these ships in action. I’m hoping by the end of the season the federation is restored to its former glory, earth returns to be a member, they move HQ back to earth and they do what they do best: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life civilizations and to boldly go where no one has gone before.
