What if you could have one single ship from another faction?

Let's say the devs would give everyone of us the choice to choose a ship from another faction, which one would you choose?

...oh wait.
edit: Honestly, I can't think of a single ship that I'd want that specific ship. A copypasta job perhaps - but not the actual ship.
...Oh wait. :P
However, a fed equivalent to KDF ship, or the opposite, I might be interested. And plz great warriors of the Empire, who like to whine so much, don't flame me because I said that, ok ?

Its kinda lacking on my sci, but with my experience from the Bortasqu I could do amazing things with her on my KDF tac, of which i have invested mots of my time on. :cool:
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
Maybe a bop for Fed.
What fed ship would the Klingons want?

Nor should they be. Their ships would look weird.
Nothing, since one of my characters on the other faction already has it. :P
...What? The OP said nothing about the faction having to be playable!
But I like the idea the other poster had to make close variants.
Maybe something like an Omega Force/Accord Lockbox.
Take three existing factional ships and create faction neutral versions of them, maybe with Dyson-style mode swapping.
I'd be interested to see what, say, a BoP, a Scimitar, and a standard cruiser (in the vein of the Ambassador or Avenger) would look like if the three factions collaborated on their design. Maybe with three hull options so that owning the Scimitar unlocks teal hull for the other two, the BoP unlocks dark green for the other two. (Or maybe flipflop the hulls to start with, making it so that looking faction appropriate for the ship type is the rarity.)
You could say something to the effect that the Ferengi were subcontracted to build designs that were developed by the three factions working together.
Maybe cheat the sizes and stats of the ships closer together so you have a line of cross faction Sci Destroyers. One with saucer, neck, hull, nacelles. One with pod and droopy wings. One with flared wings and sharp nose. It'd be even more awesome actually if they shared a costume frame and could be mized and matched so you get a choice of nacelles or wings, saucer or pod or nose, etc.
Damn! Beat me to it.
I was going to choose the Crystalline Entity myself, just sit around getting shot and BAM!
I'd take the Kamarag-R/Mirror Negh boff layout and put it on the Gal-R.

For the other factions, B'rel and D'deridex. Fun, and traditional/iconic.
A D-7 for the Romulans would be cool, though. Put those TOS Romulan uniforms to good use!

God, people still want this ship.. unbelievable..
I suppose since so many people want the D7, personally I'd rather see the Kamarag/K'Maj...similar looking and much more interesting boff seating.
Wait.... it's not playable?
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
can you imaging a BFAW scimitar with the 180 quantum torp?
