Regarding Fed ships appearing in the new Picard series

[Mark_Nguyen]

Enterprise-E. And to be fair, the "window" in that scene was more of an airlock junction where ship access from the outside could be effected. He opened the door before touching the force field, so it's nominally closed except for when 21st century primitives need to be convinced they're on a rocketship.

I would actually be surprised if we see any Starfleet vessels at all during the run of the show, unless they do a flashback.

I reckon we'll see Picard get some help from a federation starship or possibly a fleet at the end of the season. Whatever the romulans are doing with borg tech may require starfleets intervention.

I sincerely doubt that will be the case.

 

[Markonian]

I hope to see some familiar designs from the TNG/DS9/VOY era.

 

[Tuskin38]

Well, we saw a Galaxy Class hologram in the trailer. So far that's the only Starfleet ship we've seen.

They’re not going to make a Star Trek show and not show any Starfleet vessels.

I for one would like to see new Starfleet vessels without the usual saucer/nacelle combination we’re
used to. I’d rather see something entirely different to show advances in technology since the last 20 years.

 

[F. King Daniel]

Maybe we'll see Captain Harry Kim of the USS Rhode Island again, this time trying to stop Picard from whatever he's scheming and again he'll be entirely ineffectual.

 

[NCC-73515]

Since the Verity is the main ship in the comic, we might see her in a flashback.
I still do expect the Enterprise (hopefully a not too badly altered E) to show up in a major twist or cliffhanger like the end of Disco S1. Some majestic scene where all is lost and then she swooshes in and saves the day. That alone would be so cool...

 

[Mark_Nguyen]

I strongly suspect that the Verity won't survive the comic, hence why it's an Odyssey-class ship (as pure fan service to the readers) and why they even have her in the comic in the first place.

I'm thinking they're some sort of local defence ship, no obvious warp nacelles, maybe drones.

If you look at the picture here...

... you'll see the perimeter defense drones have what appears to be a kite-like shape on top. Anyway, even if they aren't the same ship, the kite-flyers are probably still part of the MDP.

Those didn't fare well I'd say In 30+ years in-universe they mostly got an upgrade

The ones in Picard also seem to be kitbashed from the DSC Season 2 S31 Drone.

kitbashed: my new word for today

 

[NCC-73515]

kitbash for bitcash

 

[Airmandan]

Figured I’d bring this back, given that all the ships we’ve encountered so far, save for the Borg cube, seem to have windows as their view screens.

 

[USS Excelsior]

And no starfleet vessels seen.

Also, all of them are on the small side, including Commodore Oh's relative behemoth.

I can see the plot reason for the hero ship being small. And for certain of the adversaries and sidekicks, such as Narek's scout and Seven's corsair, being small. And for the Romulan shuttlebuses serving the Artifact to be small. And thus sporting a forward windshield like so many Trek small craft.

Why are the Romulan warships small, though? Small goes well with windshielded and winged both. But there's no atmospheric action to be expected at the Artifact. Why the choice of ship type? Are these leftovers from a mostly lost Imperial Fleet rather than recently built post-supernova assets?
