I don't recall the class name, but in the Technical Manual (way back in the '70s) the ship above was supposed to be a tug, as Starfleet at the time was conceived as a combination military force and merchant-marine service. Large cargo containers could be attached between the nacelles, on the underside of the saucer section.
I can see that, I'd love to get my hooves on a TOS TM but those are super rare, I can't even get hold of a pdf. But the concept makes sense, the Miranda itself is a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none kind of ship, able to perform combat as well as supply and survey runs.

I think there's even a book featuring that one - entitled, appropriately enough, "Dreadnought!" ...if I remember correctly, it's also a semi-sequel to TOS "Miri"...
And people wondered where the design for the 'Anti-Time" Enterprise-D/Galaxy-X Dreadnought came from....

I just realized that's not the whole book but just the diagrams. I couldn't find and online version but Amazon has a few

Hey, I remember that one. My sister bought me one for my 13th birthday. She got me that book and the Enterprise blueprints. I remember thinking, at the time, that it was my best birthday ever. I'm sure I still have it somewhere. Probably with all of the other manuals I picked up over the years. I like Michael Okuda's manuals best, though. He was, and is, a true Trekkie with an eye for detail.
I guess that's why we got no end game connie.......cause somebody thinks it's the devil? LoL
Probably Starfleet Command, circa 2268 or so - after all, they're the ones who had to deal with all the reports of Kirk's... shenanigans, shall we say...
Seriously though, it makes sense if one considers that even though STO classifies them both as 'Light Cruisers', in TOS/the movies, while the Miranda was a 'Light Cruiser', the Constitution-class was a 'Starship' or full 'Cruiser', so it'd have just that touch more to it.
NCC 1701 Frigate Class. Any warp capable vessel is considered a "starship". The only cruisers in TOS, were Klingon battlecruisers.
The Constitution was considered a heavy cruiser in it's heyday.
This was a manual that Roddenberry approved at the time
