Miranda+ classes Released (2 ships)
« on: March 06, 2004, 04:02:53 am »
And here we go out ahead of schedule thanks to the Fact i could not sleep last night or tonight. So with out much more to say here are the pictures and the ships can be found in the SFC 2 ==> Federation Retextures Section as the Miranda+ and Miranda+ Advanced. I of coasre in glee of finishing these ships took the screen shots of the Miranda+ before I added the registry, my bad

The Miranda+
One of the Issues with the old Miranda Class was that with out a forward Deflector the ships top speed was limited. It was also less capable of deflecting larger debris from the ships path which would limit there range and duration from StarBases or other suitable repair stations. StarFleet designed this class to over come those basic limitations on a other wise capable and low cost plateform.

 

The Miranda+ Advanced
This is the latest in Light cruisers for the Federation it was designed to over come the short coming of the Miranda+ design. this ships offers greater power and speed then its predecessor as well as general improvenments from technology upgrades.

 

-Enjoy!
Got them both out ahead of schedule, so hopefully you will be able to enjoy them this weekend. You can find these ships  here one page 2 of the downloads.

Nice. That is a unique spin on the Miranda.

Well done.

Now that this is done,are you going to show us your non-federation designs?

Best wishes,

KF

May I suggest another hybrid sir? A Belknap/Ambassador narcell testbed.My thought being based on what you had mentioned in the Excel/Gal thread.The testbed would have be an older ship so...........I thought Belknap.I really am enjoying your hybrids.Thanks for the great ships sir.

Think I will finish the Excalibur I started long ago, and then take a break from texturing for a bit. KF knows i have Romulans and Kligons in the works that I have been lazy about finishing, and why he keeps asking. Reason  the Federation ships are being finished first is that they actually have less details on them then the other races, hard to believe but it is true.

great ships man!

but about that deflector thing

those two little outcuts on the back of the soucer in the housing are used in conjunction as deflectors

Nope, those in all the plans i saw are part of a sensor system no deflectors are listed on the ship.

And bump again.

Never thought a actual ship or two would be so hard to keep on page one.

These two are out now, along with te other variants so it is 4-5 releases in the last 2 weeks. I still have the TMP versionn of the Excalibur to finish then it will be back to the Romulans I started, or KF and Smiley will never forgive me.

I'll help keep the thread alive.  Partially because this is the first chance I have had to be on the board in days.  That is a different look for the Miranda class.  I grew up with and  love TMP era and all the ships, esp Fed, that come out of it.  Looks like an advanced cruiser as  I see some Excelsior characteristics on the hull.  The other render with the tribute to TNG was also quite well done.  Looking forward to more and for the download.
