Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

Yep, and Prodigy had Defiants and Centaurs too, so it's clearly not licencing.
Nope. That's not how that works. It's called artistic license.
Considering that Paramount Global owns both the current Star Trek shows and the 1990s Star Trek shows outright, I'm not sure who they would even "license" it from. Themselves? They own it all lock, stock, and barrel. If we're not seeing the same starship classes we saw as in the 1990s, it's either a technical or financial factor (not having usable computer models of the ships and not having the budget to build one), or an intentional creative decision.
Sovereigns fly with the F in the latest trailer. S2 had a (confed) Nova and Steamrunner.
Probably no plans for the Voyager-A's fate. I'd expect, as with the Titan being intended to be the one-and-only only to realize a different version had already been established on LDS, the ship on the screen was going to be the Voyager-A, then someone jumped on the grenade and mentioned that PRO was doing a Voyager-A and it'd be best not to step on their toes.
Looks like it could be the STO 25th century Glenn Class.Also spotted what appears to be a Crossfield Class, or variant on the Frontier Day posters. It doesn't seem to have the cutouts in the saucer..
Don't embed images from wikis, it won't work.Looks like it could be the STO 25th century Glenn Class.
Either way the one in my image doesn't appear to have gaps in the saucer.
The image almost... almost looks like one of the Mike Minor refit Enterprise images out there, just with flatter pylons. It certainly has a POTT Enterprise shape to it.
So is the Shangri La Class canon now with the introduction of the Titan-A? It makes zero sense that it's a "refit" Luna class ship. I would see it as a rebuilding of a Shangri La class with possibly components or space frame elements from the original Titan.
It will be once we get a camera angle on the Gold Model display case in the Titan-A's conference room.
Shaw probably has it in his quarters to open beer bottles.
The Shangri-la is canon - it appears on the conference room wall.So is the Shangri La Class canon now with the introduction of the Titan-A? It makes zero sense that it's a "refit" Luna class ship.

But the Titan-A is 560m long, to the Shangri-la's 295m, so it's not a reuse of the original components. It's a brand new ship designed to evoke the 23rd century ship.
Oh dear, those windows on the saucer rim must be huge!
Sounds like someone's never tried to find a deck-spacing that fits a 305 m refit-Enterprise's saucer.Oh dear, those windows on the saucer rim must be huge!
I gotta say every time I rewatch the S3 premiere and see the Titan-A, I'm liking it more and more.
That's a strange run of logic there.
The ship could still contain reused components and materials broken down from the old ship.
Totally. I have no problem buying that it contains the guts of Riker's Titan, I'm just saying the exterior hull is probably not reused from Saavik's ship because it's 30% larger.
Clearly they made it look something like the 23rd century ship, but it's newer and bigger.
While not mechanical parts, I believe the new CVN-80 Enterprise uses some metal recycled from the CVN-65 Enterprise.
So, do we know for sure that Rikers Titan didn't contain materials from Saavik's?
