USS Armstrong...
« on: September 06, 2012, 06:59:37 pm »
This is based on an un-used TOS concept of the USS Enterprise by the late Walter Matt Jefferies to honour one of the greatest men in aero-space history: Neil Alden Armstrong
Enjoy mates:


Oh and special thanks to Tus for discussing the design with me at some length for some secondary insight... Thanks mate, much obliged mate.

Yup,
Need other views to having a bit of a difficulty with te placement of the secondary hull and the way it would access the saucer
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

America-Not the land of the free anymore...
 Its the land of the freeloaders

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

Does this mean dual warp cores in the catamarans with shortened plasma transfer conduits an 3 forward nav deflectors and sensor clusters?

I would imagine 1 core in the third (lowest)hull feeding the two nacelles, and 1 deflector...the front of the Catamarans would be sensor suites

I love it ! Are the cats wider than the sacer in spaceing? Scale of the sacer and warps- JJ or standard? Whats that grill on the mid point of the 2ndary hull?

I'll see if I can get you a roughy of the rest of the ship.
As for the panel structures on the bottom hull, those are just extra panels, Jefferies himself opted similar structure on his near final concept drawings of the TOS Connie :)

That is one seriously unique ship class. Atolm. I relly think you could do with seeing if you can make a top ortho. I wouldn't mid giving this a go myself at sometime.
