Any chance we'll get this Vulcan ship someday?

Unnamed Vulcan Ship as displayed by the Guardian of Forever. It appears to be built with more modern Federation standards than the nearly 400 year old D'Kyr design.

:cool:

    Heck, they need to fix the D'Kyr graphics bugs before they try to do another Vulcan ship ;)
    (http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=204700)

    But that ship looks quite interesting, I'd like to see it. Might be nice to have a Vulcan cruiser in game since we already have a science vessel.

    There's also this long range Vulcan Shuttlecraft
    The Apollo Class, although this was just a transport.
    There's the Suurok class that I'm not too big a fan of.
    And then there's the "future" Vulcan cruiser that should be around sometime in this timeline, seen here.

    The Vulcans do build some awesome looking ships :cool:.

    I mainly just wanted to point it out, as I'm not sure any of the devs have actually seen the Animated Series. A lot of people haven't.

    interesting thing with that Vulcan future ship the Retro fitted Dorsal Carrier XRT-55D as its called if you look at the picture in detail the commission date is star date 3125 which if i am right is 2326 and since the federation was founded in 2161 that means the Vulcans still built ships so all those arguments about Federation races not building ships has just been washed away with some simple cannon logic

    You're overlooking the fact that there are several ships in that image simultaneously, among them the Raptor on the left and actually another ship directly under the XRT-55D text.
    So how do you know that this text refers to the Vulcan ship?

    Besides noone ever said Vulcans stopped building ships, the T'Pau type from TNG clearly shows the opposite. But it's canon from the very same episode where the T'Pau wasn mentioned that they don't build warships any more.

    No the stardate just means that the writers/gfx artists of that episode stated the julian date instaed of the star date.
    Sloppy writting.

    well i would have thought the infomation on the page would be on the Vulcan ship as it seems to be the point of intrest at that time also archer says thats becasue it hasnt been built yet and points at the date

    Which might be, but might not be.
    There is something about a "hull design something" and the number "2975" directly under that Vulcan ship.
    That might be about it.
    But who knows for sure?
    It could also be a piece of information from those entirely unintelligible small letters.
    Also "It hasn't been built yet" can refer to any point in time after the 2150's.;)

    Hey..., Don't forget the Vulcan Science Vessel T'plana-hath from Star Trek: First Contact.

    Looks like a variant of the Phoenix, Cochran's warp ship.

    I think you need to take another look at the Phoenix.

    The animated series Vulcan ship looks nothing like that.
