Triton Class Temporal Heavy Destroyer (23c AoY Veteran Ship)

Hello fellow Captains!
I'm a huge fan of STO's take on the 23c and I'd love to see a 23c Vet Ship variant. Now I know the chances of this are pretty much non-existent, so this is just a little bit of fun theory crafting while I wait for the work day to end. I can picture it looking similar to the Ranger Class but with 3 nacelles, no lower hull and maybe a more beefy saucer like the Gemini. Just imagine it going into Tactical Mode, extending some golden dish looking retro turrets on the top of the saucer, ready to blast blue beams of retro goodness. Pew-Pew!!
Yes I know about the Chimera/Manticore ... but a Captain can dream!

My first time Microsoft Paint experience! It's not the best looking model, but it at least gives a better idea of the design.

Haha ... you'll get no argument from me. Thank you for the kind words
It's funny that you mentioned the Atlas. I really wanted to use that design. It would make a great predecessor to the Chimera/Manticore. I just figured it would get some hate because the Atlas is so rare.
This was what I was thinking, an Atlas without the hull and a deflector dish on the front.

I could see that since the Atlas is such an old model design, that both the destroyer an the command battlecruiser designs could have evolved out of the Atlas design, with maybe Atlas design being a test bed for the prototype of both.
Even though most likely any proposed ship designs would not be used, it would be fun to see something like the below design done. Mostly with the below design it looks quite different from other Federation designs, but that even with the unique design would not look to out of place in a federation fleet.

Seriously, I love ppl's enthusiasm, but maybe this should become a F.C.T. even. Unless you apply for a job at Cryptic, and get hired, Cryptic will never use anything you submit. They're not being jerks per se, but it's simply legally undoable: way too many risks for Cryptic, really, what with ppl suddenly deciding to claim royalties, after a while, or the design itself already violating CB's IP rights somehow, etc.

And it was one fun ship Along with the Akula.

So just to clear things up, I was not trying to submit a design. I just wanted to have some fun imagining what a 23c version "could" look like. I was hoping some of the TOS fans out there would toss their ideas in the mix. I figure, if there is enough support and demand for such a ship, maybe Cryptic would consider creating something. I just made that model to show what I was describing what I'd imagine it'd look like, using their models.
This was just meant to be fun and pass the time, while I waited to head home, along with getting to know some Captains

what happened on this I must have missed something
Federation class. It's a Franz Josef design which runs under a different license and is probably off-limits.

23c did they really need a destoyer back then though? you know before starfleet decided bugger the whole exploration thing we can make warships that do that to but we never admit to it in the 25c.

> Ive been screaming for the sfc1 and 2 ships for year. The yomatto is a fantastic ship
Maybe but those belong to another company. Cryotic cannot use them. Likewise, Cryptic cannot use fan designs. Technically by designing a ship that'd be perfect and posting it here one makes sure it never can be used in STO xD
