I swear they should just hire you to create history and background info for all starships and make them Canon. What you come up with is very creative and makes sense in continuity.

Yeees, Miranda, First time. But unlike you, I can take a hit from a modern torpedo and not die in some Academy Award Worthy manner.
Member Worlds: "Why is it a warship!?" Starfleet: "Because space is dangerous and you need to be prepared." Member Worlds: "But we don't like violence! Guns are bad!" Starfleet: "Seriously? *BILLIONS* of people just died in a war we weren't ready to fight!" Member Worlds: "Oh, yeah... you can make a few of them then." A few years later with the next class is designed: Member Worlds: "Why is it a warship!?"

We've seen what happens as a result if Starfleet didn't make combat ready ships. Remember the "Golden Age of Exploration"? That's how you get the Galaxy. It took a TON of resources and effort to get that unicorn of a ship ready for the Borg and Dominion. Q did nothing wrong. He woke the Federation up to the fact while they have great ideals, there's just some parts of the galaxy that would rather them dead. Very bad things in the dark. After all, there's Quadrillions of sentients among hundreds of species in the Federation. Every planet glassed, captured, or assimilated could potentially wipe a species from the galaxy.

Seeing this ole Gal receive a new lease on life makes me wonder if our Earth-bound ( short of a Star Blazers or Robotech future occurrence ) Nimitz-class ships could also be overhauled to such an extent... The Nimitz herself has actually reached and gone past the timeframe for which she was to be put out to pasture but due to the delays in incorporating the new Ford-class into the fleet. It sure wouldn't be cheap but it might be less than a new Ford-class or even one of her make and given that they are already going to have to dismantle her to get to her reactors why not refit rather than scrap. Great as always on the wordsmithing and bountiful visuals.

@@randybentley2633 Having served on Nimitz class, USS Eisenhower CVN 69, I can tell you that the majority of her engineering systems are 1960's technology. Particularly the ship's environmental systems are steam heat and chill water heat exchanger type cooling. The Tertiary loop of the Reboiler/ship service steam were already notoriously leaky, when I served 1986-1990. Ike was only in her early teens, commissioned in 1976. The Reactor control electronics were Radiation hardened by lacking even a single IC Chip. Neutron radiation embrittlement of the reactor vessel itself has made start up heat up and shutdown cool off times 2-3 times longer than when it was new to prevent temperature differential brittle fractures. The aircraft elevator gear were using known carcinogen hydraulic fluid, with puddles of it on the deck. CVN68 USS Nimitz Is simply worn out. Building new Ford class would actually be less expensive. Some of the steel of CVN 65 USS Enterprise has been used to build the New USS Enterprise CVN 80.
Is it just me or is the pacifist members of starfleet like a kid on the back of the tandem bicycle sticking a stick in the front wheel
Really funny with the Tribbles comparison to the inquiry class🤣
"Churning them out like a tribble in heat" that line really got me 😂😂 I love watching your videos, you have a talent for amazing storytelling. I totally agree with everyone else here, you should be hired by the trek writers.
Your truth or myth series of beta Canon are my favorite videos that you make.
Another beautiful four-nacelle design!
Defiant's phase cannons on the Steamrunner would be awesome.
That’s one very nice looking starship.
Everytime they play the “we are pacifist” storyline or “we don’t make warships” I think back to the shear number of wars Star fleet has gotten into with everyone from the Gorn to the Klingons to the Founders to the Borg. Yeah they are peaceful and the federation is good at diplomacy and science but when your manual has General order 24 in it, does it matter if you have a warship doing it or a science tug. So have some warships, it really can’t hurt.
I've been waiting for these episode about refit class for so long thank you
What a Great Ship, It just goes to show how Dangerous Starfleet can be with the Europa, Akira, Defiant ect, when the dic**(cough) morons of the Federation council Allow Starfleet to Show there Teeth. Honestly Starfleet Should have Two Branches Exploration/Science and Military/defence.
Just this once, Rose, EVERYBODY LIVES!
Tribbles in heat. Line was a gem.
Loved it. Keep them coming Tri
Europa refit... Seems to me it is definitely a result of the quote, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it..." Lol Maybe that's why it lasted so long?
It seems like a more powerful take on the Miranda classes concept with a quad nacel layout.

Love this story line and would like to see more
Sweet ship!
the Variable Payload Launch Tubes (VPLT's?) are something I have thought about before is star trek ship designs. allows for a massive variety of combinations during combat that I wish was seen on screen more. enter the fray with a spread of tachyon charges to disrupt shields, followed by quantum torpedoes, maybe throw a few tri-cobalt devices into the mix for fun. it's a smart design decision
OK, who would sign a petition to get at least Cryptic if not full on Paramount to give TriAngulum a gig writing background lore for Star Trek?
It's a cool ship, but you can only beam to it because you can attempt no landings there.
I love the ship like tribbles on heat
I'd like to see a comparison of EVERY Starfleet vessel from each Federation era, and their sizes... 😏
16 sounds quite reasonable considering that there were many of the Nimitz class already constructed and refitted to be the Europa Class, so 16 additional ships is reasonable.

The Europa is a cleverly designed ship... Pretty much a 25th century Miranda.
Great video and true we love peace but we also must be ready for war the enemies don't care about peace but in order to protect the peace we must be ready 🖖
A lot like the Miranda.
I'll take one.
I like this upgrade. This is more fitting imo than the Nimitz class.
Video idea- "Why Does Worf Always Loose, and Get Ridiculed, at Poker?"
From 2360 - 2390: devastating wars with Cardassia, Klingons, Borg, Dominion and Romulan proxies (synths). Federation Council Members: Why do we need warships. Starfleet: *sigh*
Great video! I usually love the sto designs, but there is something about this one that leaves me wanting... The Nimitz class is so majestic and impressive that I find the STO variant to lose most of the original's appeal
I was looking at it and wondering you said 16 built yet 8 recovered so be around 24 of the vessels allowing them to cover the 6 angles of the Federation with 2 pairs in Federation space and 2 pars on each of the outers
I just had a crazy idea for the transwarp coil-thingy... use it as a passive weapon. "Accidentally" let the technology fall into enemy hands, then watch as they destroy their own ships trying to use it. 🙂

“ Tribbles “ “ In “ “ Heat “ “ WOW “
How about next you do the Prius Class. Starfleet's first hybrid electric ship. Though slower, uglier and far less capable than all other ships, the captains of these vessels would insist on enlarged bridge windows, so they could sneer at the crews of other vessels in a smug display of imagined superiority. Weaponry consisted of self-righteous haughtiness and the ability to suddenly merge in front of those dilithium-guzzling monstrosities and slow them to a crawl.
This reminds me of my tos Connie in sto t6x she looks old but has all the guts of a 25th century ship with mk xv tmp era undiscovered pulse phasers and kelvin photons

.45 very bottom center SHE'S GOT TEETH!!! Now that you've seen it you can't unsee it. Great video and Nerd Approved.
Ablative neutronium.... these two words shall not be uttered in succession .. Engineering General Order 18 ;)
Another STO class thats OK but I still prefer the original Nimitz. Still cool to see these ships in use by Starfleet.
The term Battlewagon doesn't do this ship justice. Wartrain would be a better moniker for a ship that brings everything & the caboose, which it Will throw at you.
i look at the warp nacelles of this ship and all i see are highlighter pens.
