Probably an FX accident, It even had the same registry number as the one we see later.
It wasn't there when the Enterprise left.

Because it's a barely-seen background ship that we never even get a clear view of, and so the viewer isn't supposed to read into it
Cramming whatever is laying around into the background of shots to fill them out is a time honored Trek tradition.
Yeah its like the Planet of the Titans Enterprise in the background of Spacedock. It doesn't "really" look like its made of cardboard.
I'd reckon the Crossfield variant is a genuine design.
It may be easier to rebuild an existing design from salvage rather than making a hodgepodge work.
On the other hand, Mudd's ship was a kitbash and Starfleet kitbashes in the 24th century.
But at least the Broken Circle would've deck plans and existing EPS junctions to work with.
I think it looks gorgeous and I'd like to see it in STO and as a model.

Oh, I didn't realize it's too new to be well known. The X-65 test aircraft.

Oh yes, you outwitted me in precisely the way you intended by making a niche reference that was easily misinterpreted. How terribly smart of you. Ten points to Gryffindor. Imagine my embarrassment.Talk about comparing apples to oranges though. A concept plane versus an aircraft carrier!?
When the X-65 can carry a crew of 5,000 and over 60 other aircraft while providing airbourne and submarine countermeasures, then we'll talk. It baffles me that you think a concept aircraft is in any way equivalent here. If anything that only enhances my point about the Enterprise not being a technology concept showcase but needing to be a resilient, robust, capable, quasi-military ship.
...I'm quite confident I know how they work, which is the same as every other 24th century impulse engine we've ever seen.
The ship has visible metal panelling on the hull. Just because it's duranium rather than cast iron doesn't mean it's not still the same way we've already been building ship hulls for 200 years by welding and riveting slabs of metal together. The ship has transparent windows! They've been around for a while as well. Not having a smart matter polycomposite hull and having physical windows rather than selective transparency is also a bit... retro, don't you think?
I mean this in the nicest possible way, but I genuinely can't tell if you're trolling me at this point.
The Hard lines is very 1980's, reminds me of the infamous Lamborghini Countach.
We also got a nice ortho of the Shuttlecraft.
Wouldn't be the first time a Alien made a fake StarFleet Ship.
The Dauntless comes to mind when Arturis made it as a "Fake StarFleet" ship to trap the crew of Voyager, but opted to settle for Janeway & Seven
In the case of the USS Dauntless, the irony is that StarFleet made a real version based off the fake USS Dauntless that was slightly modified at the hull design level.
Perhaps my luxury car ignorance is showing but why is thus car infamous? It looks like a Lambo.
The Lamborghini Countach is one of the most famous models of Lamborghini's ever.
It defined automotive design trends for the company and other SuperCar companies for many years after.
The Lamborghini Countach is in the "Super-Car" category, that's a seperate category from the "Luxury-Car" category.
Here are other automotive enthusiasts who can explain it better than I can.
Why the Lamborghini Countach is the best car of all time
How the Iconic Lamborghini Countach Became the Ultimate Raging Bull: A Brief History
Why The Original Countach Is Lamborghini's Greatest Car
This is why the Lamborghini Countach is one of the most important cars ever made
Not sure it's infamous...unless I'm missing something
If you were the 'other Super Car' companies around that era, the Countach made your cars look like outdated trash.
So it had a "Infamous Reputation" amongst the competition at the time.
The Countach was the "Pin-Up" Car on many young boys bed-room walls during the 80's & 90's.
I'll take your word for it.
And apologies to Lamborghini and other such cars. They do not appeal.
That Grill looks like a smile from a kid with braces on his teeth.
Indeed. It looks harmless and sweet.
Looks like Oliver
You're kidding about the FTL engines right?
No, Oliver. One of the most famous cars… in the world.
