Star Trek Online Exotic Ship Wish List

Have you ever had an idea for an exotic ship design, such as a Ferengi Marauder / Galaxy Class or a Klingon /Kazon hybrid?

Tell us your idea.

My hybrid design would be a Voth Bulwark Dread Cruiser/Freedom (TNG version) hybrid.

The saucer secruon of the Freedom would be built into the forward section of the Voth ships hull, so that the upper and lower sections of the Voth ship sit above and below the saucer section.

Standard phaser arrays on the saucer section.

The lower Voth Hull would contain the Deflector array, two support hangars of five shuttles each, plus two heavy photon torpedo launchers.

Along the lateral sides of the Voth hull would be two micro photon torpedo launchers per side to help attack smaller ships and fighters coming along for a broadside attack.

The wings of the Voth ship would contain the warp nacelles and impulse engines.

The after section where the Voth engines would have been located would be replaced with two flight hangars that would launch upto four squads of defense fighters and three squads of attack bombers.

The lower protrusion of the Voth ship would be where the super sized mining laser from the Freedom class would be housed. The super mining laser would be more accurate, more powerful and have a faster firing rate then the Freedoms version.

Smaller and faster tracking phaser arrays would be located mid ship to aft to help defend against enemy bombers, smaller starships being used as assault ships and anti-torpedo defense.

This class of hybrid would be the first long range artillery / carrier ship that could be used to defend/attack planetary and orbital stations along with larger ships of the Voth, Jem'Hadar, Borg as well any future large Threat Force ships that have not been imagined yet.
 
Another class of ship, the Silver Tide, would be a Fast Strike Scout Ship.

The Silver Tide would have two, Oberth Class Enginnering Hull pontoons attached to the Primary Hull. The pontoons would be structurally reinforced with advanced heat shields so that the ship could physically land on lava lakes of molten lava planets.

The ship would remain almost undetectable due to the intense heat being given off from the planet along with the other dynamics associated with a lava planet.

The ship would carry five, Lava Class Fighters that would could be launched from the ship while on the lava planet to conduct raids or recon missions within a ten light year range of the scout ship.

5 x Type XV Phaser Arrays
2 x fore and aft firing Spiral Wave Torpedo Launchers.

Standard crew size for a scout / destroyer ship.
Drawback: High energy consumption during lava shielding use results in longer periods of capacity recharge that causes reduced phaser, shielding and warp speed performance for an hour after using the advanced shielding system.

But on the upside, when the advanced shielding systems are used in space, the ship gains an additional 75% resistance to all thermal based energy weapons for thirty seconds with a recharge time of two minutes.
