The NX Freedom class I honestly cringed at when I saw it in media promotions and remember even saying to my brother that I would actuelly prefer the Kelvin Constitution class than that. When I see it, it to me though expresses someone you dont like much, but when you are forced to spend time with them through no choice of your own you actually discover that the individual isnt that bad afterall, just misunderstood. The class can certainly withstand alot of punishment though, cant it? Between the regisry number and ship name that particular area around the saucer reminded me of the Discovery we saw in the first released trailer of it coming out of the asteroid before we got the other version and I liked the one we saw in the first trailer, so much better than the end result. The chunky nacelles as well still baffles me, but I am glad they were gotten rid of in place of what were put on the NX-01 in both universes, they remind me of a rub of toothpaste, thick at the front and then gets thiner the further back you go. You probably have already covered the reasoning behind this and I apologise if I seem ignorant but am I glad this wasnt a ship in a tv series but thats my own opinion. 6:07 I just have Akira class come to mind but without the torpedo launcher between the nacelles. 9:04 The giant green hand, I dont watch TOS that much but wasnt there an episode with a giant green hand in that or am i just totally remembering things differently? But a nice throw forward so to speak if i am correct, ha ha. I enjoyed it sir, and hope you are continuing to get better in yourself, take care out there

I believe the Franklin and her crew went through the same fate in the TOS timeline. The difference being, were they ever found? No doubt they were, just not by the Enterprise. The drones that ancient race built were tough as nails, and going up against a Starfleet that hadn't dealt with a ship like the Nerada would guarantee a win for them. But, Starfleet crews would be the same resourceful and determined bunch, even if the technology differed a bit. I have a thought. In another Truth or Myth video about the Joseph-designed Dreadnought(either the Dreadnought-specific one or the video covering all the Joseph designs) it was mentioned there was audio communication from Epsilon IX in ST:TMP with the USS Entente, one of the ships listed in the Technical Manual for the Dreadnought class. Leaves you to wonder, if there was a Starfleet Dreadnought within communication range of Epsilon IX, why wasn't it dispatched to intercept the V'Ger Cloud which had taken out three Klingon battlecruisers and threatened the communication station itself? Because they were busy dealing with Krall or had finished but left too damaged to take on the V'Ger Cloud. With the way the drones commanded by a former Starfleet officer handled an Enterprise more powerful than the original TOS Enterprise, then a TOS Dreadnought would definitely have a challenge. It's a thought. I honestly don't know if there is any lore on where the Gagarin Belt is in relation to the UFP-Klingon border. For all we know, the Station Yorktown might have been sitting a dozen light years from the Cardassians and didn't know it yet.

Great video. I really like this ship design, but think it’s design fits the TOS/TMP era. The hull design has a TMP look and has some similarities to the Miranda class when looking at it from the front. I could see it as a scout, or attack, ship during the TMP era. I could see the scout ship USS Columbia in the first movie being this class.

The Freedom class is my favorite ship design of the Modern Star Trek Films.

Well Kralls ships operated with an advanced computer system which connect all the little vessels together. This allowed them to operate like a swarm, so close to each other, that the sensors on board the Enterprise weren't even able to tell that it was hundreds of ships, rather thinking it was just one large starship. What Kirk and crew did, was use music to jam the computer signal that connected all the ships together and allowed them to operate in tandem. And so then, without Computer Control, the ships were so close to each other, that losing the Computer caused them all to crash in to each other... Hence the explosions!

In the other case. It should be considered as inspired speculation and not connected to the main constant of the original prime Star Trek universe.

A unanswered question; Are the survivors of the Franklin *still out there in the Prime timeline,* waiting for Starfleet to catalogue that one item they need for their "Vengeance" ? And if there's a long delay due to timeline differences what would happen… would a TNG era ship just laugh at the drones and totally outclass them, would StarFleet detect the hack eventually (or their systems advance to the point that the Franklin crew wouldn't have the technology and knowledge to penetrate StarFleet security systems). And if that McGuffin/item is never taken by StarFleet, what happens when a Federation vessel finally explores that system - and detects everything going on there with far superior sensors while still in the cloud. Or are local Federation facilities in for a rude suprise … without a ship with plot armour in the area!

A curve is not invented, it merely exists... And since each warp factor barrier required a new engine system and new breakthrough of discovery, it would be silly to think that Earth Scientists would know such things before invention... Even by the 24th century they were still learning about warp, how it worked etc... Hence rewriting the warp scale...

Early ships shouldn't be straight explorers with science labs and so on. They should be salvage/tug hybrids (with a bit of explorer and science) - their mission … to find wrecked and abandoned spacecraft and swipe them, then get them back to Earth ASAP. To boldly follow the creed of the crew of Red Dwarf and _sneakily nick whatever advanced tech they can get away with,_ in order to advance Earth's basic technology. Since StarFleet is at the bottom rung of FTL ship development (only just building their first true long range starships), a single salvaged ship from a more advanced species could leapfrog Starfleet technology decades or more. Imagine if the NX Enterprise had made a beeline back to StarFleet engineering HQ the moment they captured a Suliban Cell ship? Even sending that Ferengi ship back to Earth, with the crew secured in a freshly installed Brig, would have been a boon. Just the databases would have been priceless. "It's got a bunch of tow cables, a workshop with cutters, and a cargo hold with clamps. It can drag a derelict ship back to Earth, or just pieces of it". Side note; after the Dominion War every species in the Alpha Quadrant should be getting close to the standard of the big three Alpha powers, just from all the combat wrecks floating around. Even if they were centuries behind beforehand - not every abandoned or totalled ship would have a warp core breach, sometimes the ejection system would work, and sometimes the warp core just goes dead.

Also, how do you think it is that the NX freedom class served for 40 years while the NX Enterprise would serve for only ten years before being mothballed?

so as far as i am aware the kelvin films are now treated as a separate universe with its own divergent history pre old spocks arrival so this class may not be canon in the prime continuity though just to be safe we should probably just think of it as canon until someone directly says otherwise since its canonicity doesn't actually change anything major

The Class seems to be logical, but I'm not sure that the Vulcans would have let Starfleet build it. OTOH, Enterprise, as much as I liked the series, FAILED to explain WHY the Vulcans held Earth back for a Century. Yes, it was briefly touched on in Season 4, but the creators missed a golden opportunity presented in Voyager for a better explanation. In Voyager, Humanity launched Freedom One as an unmanned Warp capable Deep Space probe. As an unmanned probe, Earth may have equipped Freedom One with a Warp Drive that would have produced lethal amounts of radiation for a crew. The Vulcans may have felt that Humanity was pushing too fast after First Contact and wasn't prepared to handle long range interstellar space travel. Flash forward to Enterprise. According to Voyager, Earth had contact with Freedom One for decades at least. Given the Warp 5 engine, why couldn't Enterprise have been sent to follow Freedom One and establish First Contact with Species encountered?

@TriAngulumStudiosAudioComics

I think you've misunderstood a bit about Enterprise and the Vulcans... The Vulcans at no time actually held back, or prevented Earth from doing anything. Some humans felt that they did because they refused to share their technology with humanity. Also the Vulcans, logical and cautious by nature, tended to give recommendations based on that philosophy, again viewed by some as holding humanity back... What I'm saying is that Vulcan holding humanity back was a feeling, rather then a physical fact! Also, you have Friendship One a little muddled as well... Its warp drive was not lethal at all, anymore then any warp drive is lethal I suppose... The problem there was that the probe contain the information to create an anti-matter reactor that caused their self-destruction. The scientist in the episode says that a containment failure in their antimatter power grid destroyed their planet. But until the Friendship One probe arrived, the natives had never conceived of antimatter. So to extend that to "Earth may have equipped Freedom One with a Warp Drive that would have produced lethal amounts of radiation for a crew" is a far stretch with no logical basis being that we saw Cochrane himself use an almost identical warp drive for his first warp flight and had no ill effects what so ever.... We dont know what course Friendship one traveled on, for all we do know, the original course chosen for Enterprise May have been close to that of Friendship one... Or perhaps in those decades, Friendship One found nothing of Interest being that Decades at warp 1 equals = only 10 Ly's per decade and Space is large, with not every system passed being inhabited... Finally, this starship class was built BEFORE First Contact, thus the Vulcans allowing anything doesnt play a factor, since humanity knew nothing of the Vulcans when they began to build this ship...

If you watch this video, the Intrepid couldn't handle a Warp 4 engine due to the Delta radiation. An unmanned probe wouldn't have the same issue. That's why I'm saying the Freedom One was problematic.

And the Vulcans philosophy of not giving tech to humanity is the basis for the Federations Prime Directive...

The freedom class is the ugliest design in trek history.
