Spoilers The Strange New Worlds Starship Thread™

Discovery Season 1.

The cutout is there, you can see the light shining through it a second or so before that shot.

 

The version of the USS Defiant your reference was after that particular ship had been modified by the denizens of the Mirror Universe 100 or so years after it had first appeared there. (see ENT S4 - ' In A Mirror Darkly' where it looks exactly like it had in the TOS S3 episode "The Tholian Web"). And while a textured CG version of the ship exists in the Star Trek Online MMO, in the actual Star Trek Discovery episode that referenced it, all they ever showed on screen was a wireframe image of the ship on a display screen of the Discovery Bridge.

 

From the Hemmer Trailer

 

Still wondering if that's an Orion ship.

 

Yeah, It does vaguely resemble the Orion ship from TOS-R

 

The crashed Connie class looks to have a bent pylon.

 

That will buff right out.

 

It's also got broken nacelle caps and the main sensor dish is bent at a downward angle.

 

If you crash a starship more than a pylon is going to be bent. Should immediately call AAA.

 

The crashed connie reminds me of...

 

Or even SSS ... Stuck Starship Service

 

That's the joke! Nicely done!

 

Doesn't that make it the Constellation?

 

I remember buying the game because of this box art. Man was I disappointed.

 

I'd have said the MU Defiant, but it's bent the wrong way

 

No.

 

Has anyone tried to "light up" that ship to get the registry number?

 

I've been freezing the frames from the Hemmer and M'Benga trailers, and can't quite make it out!
