I was kinda annoyed at the Franz Joseph's single engine design. I didn't like the long stick with a deflector dish on it. So I designed this varient of that ship.

Integrating the deflector dish and the nacelle is a great idea. It's giving me stuff to think about. Specifically, I think it needs a bit more work to develop or clarify an alternative to the Bussard collector. But very nicely done. Outstanding concept!
Trek actually went nearly 25 years before the term bussard was added in that Paklid episode. And I'm from those times. 
I thought the physical models don't supported that concept. The script needed it. But there would need to be some intake vent on the ship.
I'm actually working on a design that works with that idea. Though I think it makes more sense for it to be around the deflector rings. The deflector is designed to push particles away. It makes sense that it could gather particles too.

its been a few years since I made it, but I think its a tad smaller o7
