Intrepid Flight II - Orthos

The Kirsten Beyer books detailing the Full Circle project allude to a second generation of Intrepid class starships, with Voyager being refitted to this level. To me, this seemed a good opportunity to "fix" the Intrepid class and make it look a little more integrated. So here we have what I'm calling the Flight II Intrepid.

Flight II changes include:

- Replacement of the variable geometry nacelle system with a superior fixed nacelle configuration
- The addition of slipstream drive
- Modification of the hull geometry to support slipstream drive and increase internal volume
- An expanded shuttle bay (partially to replace the removed Aero shuttle capability)
- Reconfiguration of the Impulse drive system to support volume increase and saucer separation (although why the author felt such a small ship needed this ability is beyond me)
- A complete replacement of the external hull plating to take advantage of material improvements
- Reconfiguration and update of the weapon system and sensor systems
- Redesigned bridge module

This is my third attempt at building this ship, and whilst there are still a few things I'd like to change (namely the saucer impulse engines), I'm declaring her finished (for now...)
