Spoilers The Strange New Worlds Starship Thread™

My memory isn't what it use to be, did we actually see that on screen?
I'm assuming you are referring to a DISCOVERY season 2 episode?
Discovery Season 1.

It also doesn't appear to have the cutout in the pylons?
(there's no light shining through)

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

The Defiant was modified, so it no longer looks like a standard Constitution class ship.

But yes, it could definitely be a different ship than the Enterprise.
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.
