This has been the case ever since 2012 when the Odyssey was first announced, in fact, the Second Year Anniversary gave Federation players a stripped-down version of the Odyssey-class ships.
Um...er...um...over two years ago when they announced it?
Hmmm.. haven't noticed it back then.. anyway.. funny thing is.. if you check out the Enterprise with your own ship before boarding her, then it IS the "Enterprise" !!!

I also noticed that when flying the Enterprise, the ship status panel, with the shields and that, has "Odyssey Operations Cruiser" instead of the name.
Edit: oh, and why are the Federation insignias on the hull red?

There used to be a picture here, but they changed signatures and I can't be bothered to replace it.

No, dude. It's name is the U.S.S. Odyssey. That's not the Enterprise at all.
We've been had!

No, that's the Enterprise in Boldly They Rode. Its name is clearly shown whenever you do the mission when it warps into the area.
Then why does it say NCC-1701-F?! :P
OK, I'm officially lost.
This is why.

Read the ship's name after "U.S.S."

What? You seriously thought you were going to meet the real crew of the Enterprise? On the real Enterprise?
And then read the number.

I would be frightened if they did, because that would indicate sentience and therefore make eating them slightly awkward.

He means the name printed on the Hull says Odyssey, not Enterprise.
Because the Federation is surrendering to the Klingon Empire with S9.
She ;P .. but nvm.
I don't have any Fed toons, so I saw no issue with the Ody.
