One of the main things what i like about Picard season 3 is it has also brought back ship porn. I have no idea what S1 and S2 people were doing but give makers of S3 a raise.
beautiful design! when she arms her defences, and rises up with red light glowing, she reminded me of how menacing the uss reliant looked with those red lights.
I know man that scene with the virtual camera behind the Titan and showing the Intrepid going down but then rising back up and powering up I've not felt tension like this since watching the daleks for the first time I actually felt the need to hide as the Intrepid came back with vergence and you could see and feel that so so much so that and the music so so awesome.
Edit: USS Hornet would have been Spot on! In my opinion I feel Starfleet lost a considerable amount of materials and energy when the synths destroyed Utopia Planitia. They seem to be repurposing older components. I like the designs and they make sense. Thanks for the video.
Yeah my guess is we will see the three nacelle enterprise D from "All good things". The computer showed us the saucer was salvaged and they have been talking about the Enterprise D a lot this season.
@@zoberraz Yaaaasssss! Granted the Toronado is basically a variant of the Wasp and is it nearly as well known as the Wasp class, but the Toronado was designed with the underslung deflector/long range sensor/communications array, not the torpedo module.
How does the Titan make sense other than Starfleet going for a retro look or making use of spare ship parts laying around cause Mars ship yard is destroyed? And the star drive section of the Intrepid looks ugh.
@@cruman87 The thing about the Titan-A that gets to me is that the retro design thinks of retro as 30-40 years ago, when in-universe they're aiming for 130 years ago. So it's like designing today's battleships to look like US Civil War screw sloops, with sails and all. Riker's Titan from the novels/Lower Decks would have been much more preferable (or even the same basic outline of the ship but with different nacelles/upgrades).
@@Cyke101 Yeah I like that analogy. As far as the Titan, I'd rather they just call the ship something else instead coming up with some weird backstory that it is Rikers "Titan" but it's not. Its a refit but its not really. IDK
It was weird at first, but I like it. Kinda brings to mind those weapon drones from the first season of TNG when they were on that planet that was a big weapons emporium. "Arsenal of Freedom".
Honestly, I think this is the sexiest Star Fleet design I've ever seen. Definitely the best looking ship drop since the Akira, and it replaces my previous favorite which was the Sternbach Voyager Concept.
I wanna say the ball turrets on the Titan could be for low yield/rapid fire pulse phasers to deal with smaller craft and overwhelming enemy shields, the strips could be for higher yield/sustained fire phaser beams for larger targets and for when phasers are used in utility purposes such as debris clearing or (insert any time TNG Enterprise used its phasers for a non-combat purpose).
The intrepid feels reminiscent of Bill’s Tornado Class interceptor side profile concept, notably the secondary hull configuration. Thanks for all that you do!
The tornado class is very similar, especially in the curve of the neck to the secondary hull. I'd say they used ideas from both the Hornet and the Tornado to put this together.
This is a MUCH better update of a TMP Krause design than Titan-A is. Makes me think Matalas demanded the TMP saucer on Titan was left alone, since they changed every other detail of that design and literally every detail of this one.
Didn't realize that this ship was based off of one from FASA. Nice to see that. Not sure I like the new warp nacelle designs for this ship or the Neo Connie classes though.
Now that Trekyards mentions it the ship DOES look similar to the NX-01 refit. I still don’t like the codpiece secondary hull, but this definitely gives me faith of the heart
Now this is a ship design I can get behind! Absolutely love the new USS Intrepid and wish this was the 'hero' ship of the season instead of the Titan-A. It's a great looking ship from all directions. Refreshing and new take on a Federation vessel. Still not crazy about the clunky nacelles, but hey, can't complain when the rest of the ship is spot on. So, can we say the Intrepid has _two_ secondary hulls? One aft of the saucer and the other below the neck?
The Titan-A is not a bad looking ship. I only find certain aspects of its design a little awkward The wide profile of the neck and truncated aft of the saucer section seems a little odd. If the neck wasn't as wide or if the saucer wasn't cut off it would probably be a more balanced design. These two design features in combination emphasize the other if you follow what I mean. This isn't a critique on the Constitution class which is a classic and love myself, but the Titan-A is a very different ship despite its class name.
I understand they need the warp nacelles to still be that large and elongated for a more contrasting dramatic effect but, it just keeps bringing me back to what Capt. Janeway said about USS Voyager being 'the fastest ship in the quadrant' in the very first episode, given how tiny the size and shape of those nacelles on Voyager in proportion to the rest of the ship.
I absolutely love this ship. It's a very unique design and I was so excited to see a live action version of the Wasp class. My first thought was 'can't wait for this to come to STO so I can fly it'
Have they turned the clock back on Trek ship designs in Picard? Up until Voyager/FC/Nemesis, Starfleet ships were getting more modern and sleeker looking by the series. The Intrepid and Titan-A look very retro.
Oh god yes please I have not make an airfix model kit for over 30 years I'm still trying to get a 90's airfix model kit of the Enterprise D I built but lost. Thank you for the video 😊
7:44 DEEP CUT! The circles indicating the shield perimeter are (i bet) a direct reference to the low tech shield display from TWOK! :D EDIT: Of course you got it too LOL
"Refit Era", it would TOTALLY thus make sense if Geordi off screen is finishing up the Ent-D Galaxy-X refit so she can help her crew one last time. The final character we need to see! (Though, I could be ok without the 3rd nacelle, refit changes and the megaphaser-cannon will be more than enough.
I would love to see this ship in Star Trek Online as a T6 variant of the utility cruiser, with the TOS era Pioneer class appearance available, to finally have a version of the utility cruiser design that isn’t relegated to only being used in the tutorial stage.
This design as a militarised starfleet ship is perfect. This is clearly part of the starfleets' "patrol" arm lol. I actually like the turrets and arrays in combination. If those turrets were, say, defiant class cannons? That ship is now deadly as fuck at both medium and short range.
Both the Stinger and the new Intrepid look a bit like my own kitbashed TOS era Pathfinder class, with the nacelles attached to an extended raised section at the back top of the saucer and longer neck with a defector pod on the end and sensor pallets with antenna on the necks sides. So I'm biased to liking the design.
I find it fascinating that they are going back to 23rd century designs for the 25th century starships. I honestly love it. I very much enjoy the Galaxy, Sovereign, Intrepid and Odyssey class designs, but this is classic trek. It's like apologizing for seasons 1 and 2
I was recently thinking that maybe the return to older designs could be the result of a design team composed of longer lived species in their later years. Using designs they had come up with before taking a 70+ year leave from Starfleet. Logic dictates: if it ain't broke... 😂😂
I think this is a great ship if I were doing Star Trek online and this ship came about it absolutely would be one of the choices I would take. And the ad is also a lot you can do with that particular design.
I thought that the intrepid was the shrike projecting hollo image of a federation starship over its self, the secondary hull deflector dish looks like the shrikes, also thought that Roe was Vidik.
Same nacelles make sense if they are a wear and tear part. Just pull up to the closest star base and take a day or 2 to swap out nacelles, basically plug and play between different classes.
That or if nacelles are hard to manufacture you'd want as much standardisation as possible among the fleet to keep production time and costs down. That is how I justify in my head canon how in the TOS/TMP era ship components like nacelles are usually standardized but by the TNG era nacelles seem to be more specialised per ship class. It seems like whatever new warp technology is in use in the post-TNG era that has changed the warp effect and apparent speeds of travel has done something that has made warp nacelles more difficult or costly to manufacture again.
Rather than separating the saucer section in the event of a warp core breach, could the core and antimatter storage be housed in the bottom protuberence and that gets ejected? Much easier to replace than half the ship.
Did you comment on the fact that when weapons were armed, we saw red lights on each ends of the upper phaser array/strips? That was a new one not seen on any other Trek ship before.
The low-slung secondary hull does bear a resemblance to the Shrike’s deflector, creating a visual, emotional connection, making the ship feel a little sinister; brilliant design
Im sure theres a another version of this ship in startrek legacy called the ajax i think but the lower pod is a phaser i think. Either way this and the iterations of it are pretty cool designs
What gives you the idea these ships are upscaled? The Windows and Bridges are perfectly in line and those are obviously TOS/TMP era sized Ships. I got no problem with it if these aren't Galaxy/Sovereign sized ships. If we ever see either next to the Enterprise-F and it doesn't totally dwarf them, then i'm gonna raise an eyebrow.
The ongoing game of who inspired whom. USS Hornet blueprints. Designed by Lawrence Miller. I own a hard copy of that set (I should find that box of goodies...). I bought those in the 80's. I see evidence they have been reprinted a few times since in the current century. As they should be. 😉It had small fighters docked in similar fashion as a Travel Pod does in TMP. The orthographic image of the Wasp Class in the vid has a familiar FASA Federation Starship Recognition Manual graphic border. It wasn't published as part of the original combat simulator game. IMO, a passionate fan of the Hornet just renamed it the Wasp to adapt it. IMO, Krause's Toronado *may have been* inspired by both the Hornet and the Wasp. With original modifications. Authors of the written word are inspired similarly all the time. And now we have the Duderstadt-class. A nice lineage and I like it.
The scale is really an issue this season even though I love the ships. The shot of the Titian breaking the tractor beam looks bloody ridiculous if you actually look at the ships. Titan windows are like 10 meters tall. lol
I love this design, also love the Titan design too👍 I think some of the newer designs were getting a bit tired - like stretched out Intrepid/ voyager type designs with their ovoid saucers
I like the ship but I just don't like the neck placement. I do appreciate a unique design. I still personally like the sleeker ships like the E or Voyager but I love how these are actual trek ships! I didn't think this would happen but when I heard it was the USS Intrepid, a small part of me was hoping to see the Voyager style class namesake.
Not a fan, personally. The secondary hull looks silly to me. I’m glad you guys are digging it though. When do you think we’ll be seeing some legacy ships? I miss the Hood.
From The wasp class photo, the secondary hull looks convenient for your hand to grab on to. Also, I love the moment the camera just held in place for the intrepid ship to reel into back into place. Never seen that before. Almost like it is about to charge forward after being knocked down. Definitely a model to buy, but where buy from?
I love this so much!!!. Give us more unique designs of starships. The federation has hundreds of planets, i want to see more 'not designed by a human' starfleet ships.
Im still not sure about this "retro" look of this season...it's basically the refit era. Is there any expalnation as to why Starfleet went back to such ancient designs?
It’s been mentioned outside of canon that after the destruction of the shipyards around Mars that they’re salvaging parts of old ships. Maybe the design fits the parts that they’ve salvaged. Warp fields tailored to a particular geometry perhaps?
the issue with the deflector is obviously around because that dish was never meant to be a deflector in the first place but everyone glommed onto calling it that because of the error ridden ST technical manual.
wonder does anyone see this like the ship is inspired by a hornet/wasp. The bottom fuselage is the hornet's bottom body. The nacelle placement wing spans out like the wing of a hornet
Apart from the amazing designs we have in Season 3 these ships move actually move like they should. It takes time to maneuver these large spacecraft. Not zipping around like they did in the Jar Jar movies or the ones in STD.
Great looking ship! PIC production team have really upped their game when it comes to ship designs when you consider the cut-and-paste fleet at the end of S1. I do hope that more is seen of the Intrepid because I'd like it to be more than just a faceless ship in pursuit of the Titan. Maybe it needs some character stakes involved I think beyond the fact that several Titan crewmembers have been transferred over to it and are basically now hostages to whomever is commanding the Intrepid be them Changelings or manipulated Starfleet officers being used as pawns in whatever long game is being played.

Beautiful lol. No it not it is an Ugly design just like the Titan here is an ugly design.
@@sharonec5419 opinions vary
“It’s wonderfully simple, and yet radical.” My thoughts exactly. I think she’s a very cool addition to the fleet 👍
The underslung secondary hull reminds me of the weapon in TNG season 1 episode Arsenal of Freedom.
Like it though. Nice design.
Edit: USS Hornet would have been Spot on!
In my opinion I feel Starfleet lost a considerable amount of materials and energy when the synths destroyed Utopia Planitia. They seem to be repurposing older components. I like the designs and they make sense.

Well Hoover Class looked almost like this ship.
How does the Titan make sense other than Starfleet going for a retro look or making use of spare ship parts laying around cause Mars ship yard is destroyed? And the star drive section of the Intrepid looks ugh.

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE a model of this. At a good scale and at a reasonable price.
Man do I really like this design. Always liked Bill’s designs and this update is gorgeous. I really want a model of it!
This ship is getting a lot of rave reviews so I think they will 😊 would be silly not to if it's popular. I havn't done a airfox model in 30 years.
It was weird at first, but I like it. Kinda brings to mind those weapon drones from the first season of TNG when they were on that planet that was a big weapons emporium. "Arsenal of Freedom".
This is what I have expected from Discovery. New, pushing boundaries but familiar. Not floating nacelles and speghetti thrown at the wall designs
Why would it be remotely familiar after hundreds and hundreds of years?
Honestly, I think this is the sexiest Star Fleet design I've ever seen. Definitely the best looking ship drop since the Akira, and it replaces my previous favorite which was the Sternbach Voyager Concept.

The front profile of the ship reminds me of the NX01 refit concept, definitely.
It does look very post-Sovereign but still a continuation.
The intrepid feels reminiscent of Bill’s Tornado Class interceptor side profile concept, notably the secondary hull configuration. Thanks for all that you do!
The tornado class is very similar, especially in the curve of the neck to the secondary hull. I'd say they used ideas from both the Hornet and the Tornado to put this together.
I don’t want to nitpick, but it’s called the Toronado class not Tornado
It’s not only reminiscent but I directly modified the Toronado (then Chaparral) class when creating this new 25th century version.
This is a MUCH better update of a TMP Krause design than Titan-A is. Makes me think Matalas demanded the TMP saucer on Titan was left alone, since they changed every other detail of that design and literally every detail of this one.
It is nice seeing old fan designs getting new life in canon, on screen, with updates to fit in the timeline properly
It reminds me of the ambassador class concept painting from the front. It's nice to see some good ship design.
Didn't realize that this ship was based off of one from FASA. Nice to see that. Not sure I like the new warp nacelle designs for this ship or the Neo Connie classes though.
Looks like an updated pioneer class.

Between DS9 and Mars burning, Starfleet has turn to dumpster stock to start refitting the fleet. Is the kinda vibe I get with Star Trek Picard.
I absolutely love this ship. It's a very unique design and I was so excited to see a live action version of the Wasp class. My first thought was 'can't wait for this to come to STO so I can fly it'
This could have been the "Hero Ship"
Some texture and details in the hull remind me of the Sovereign Class era - for me it really bridges the 2380s era ships with the 2400s. Love it.
That saucer edge could slice a DS9 sized pizza. Not a huge fan of the sharp saucer edges on some of the new ships. But overall I love the ship.
I'm starting to think all of Bill Krause's ships will be in Picard.
Definitely going pick a model up for this!
Hi, I'm from Ireland and was recently in New York for a few days with my wife and we were on the original real aircraft carriage US Intrepid.
Reminds me of the STO Pioneer class as well.
So happy S3 has gone back to more matt tones on the hull plating. The ships in S2 (and Ent-D in S1) were way too shiny 😊
Have they turned the clock back on Trek ship designs in Picard? Up until Voyager/FC/Nemesis, Starfleet ships were getting more modern and sleeker looking by the series. The Intrepid and Titan-A look very retro.
Oh god yes please I have not make an airfix model kit for over 30 years I'm still trying to get a 90's airfix model kit of the Enterprise D I built but lost. Thank you for the video 😊
The secondary Hull looks like a zat gun from Stargate SG1
Those turrets could be pulse phaser cannons like the defiant has
Bill has responded to a lot of questions about the ship on his instagram post, pretty cool!
I loved this ship. Very very cool design.
DIS S1 Hoover class had a similar forward dropped secondary hull
I like it. In some angles looks like classic starship. Change angle and different
They are giving us a lot of good ships. I would have dismissed everything after Disco Series one if it weren’t for you guys.
Interesting design. And it looks so mean after it came back up to shoot the Titan.
7:44 DEEP CUT! The circles indicating the shield perimeter are (i bet) a direct reference to the low tech shield display from TWOK! :D
EDIT: Of course you got it too LOL
I noticed that as well.
Love this awesome quirky design
I find these ships ape the refit era a bit too much but I really do like these designs. I am hoping they show up in Star Trek Online.
"Refit Era", it would TOTALLY thus make sense if Geordi off screen is finishing up the Ent-D Galaxy-X refit so she can help her crew one last time. The final character we need to see! (Though, I could be ok without the 3rd nacelle, refit changes and the megaphaser-cannon will be more than enough.
I would love to see this ship in Star Trek Online as a T6 variant of the utility cruiser, with the TOS era Pioneer class appearance available, to finally have a version of the utility cruiser design that isn’t relegated to only being used in the tutorial stage.

I actually mistook the Intrepid for another of the same class as the Titan-A until I got a good look at it.
Ship truly looked pissed off after nacelle damanged
Awesome ship! Would love to see a model of it, and it reminded me of the pioneer, wasp and the andor engineering hull, nice vid!

No thats nostalgia. 25th century ships have grayish white hulls, black contrasts and blue and orange fixes.
Deflector and secondary hull are sweet. Liking the enterprise d vibes.
Still think those nacelles would look better the other way up, with more of a link to sovereign than TMP
This one's growing on me, especially with some detail shots.
I think it's a great ship. I love how it's very reminiscent of old designs and concepts.
I think this is a great ship if I were doing Star Trek online and this ship came about it absolutely would be one of the choices I would take.

would’ve appreciated a cylindrical engineering section, perhaps.
Im sure theres a another version of this ship in startrek legacy called the ajax i think but the lower pod is a phaser i think. Either way this and the iterations of it are pretty cool designs
You are right! In game it is called the "Akula Class".

Why in the world does it have a deflector dish in the rear though? So they can fly at warp backwards?
Rear facing sensor array.
I've not actually watched any of series 3 yet as I'm saving to binge watch. Had to watch a trekyards ship video though....
the naceles are still a random mess of shapes that doesnt work at all
wonder does anyone see this like the ship is inspired by a hornet/wasp. The bottom fuselage is the hornet's bottom body. The nacelle placement wing spans out like the wing of a hornet
What's the point of a rear navigational deflector? I like the Wasp more.
The sidevieuw looks like an attacking eagle
It looks like the "eye" on the bottom of the intrepid is there to match the "eye" on the bottom of the Shrike.
There's definitely a tie-in here!
She looks mean and then she looks really pissed.
I want to see the Enterprise F.
Its a Ron Jeremy class ship, that would have been a good command for Riker.
I like this ship👍🏾
Apart from the amazing designs we have in Season 3 these ships move actually move like they should. It takes time to maneuver these large spacecraft. Not zipping around like they did in the Jar Jar movies or the ones in STD.
I’d say the Intrepid is 480 to 500 meters in size ish.
Edit once I got a ruler out it’s actually closer to 405 meters so thry upped it to 1.5x
Great looking ship! PIC production team have really upped their game when it comes to ship designs when you consider the cut-and-paste fleet at the end of S1. I do hope that more is seen of the Intrepid because I'd like it to be more than just a faceless ship in pursuit of the Titan. Maybe it needs some character stakes involved I think beyond the fact that several Titan crewmembers have been transferred over to it and are basically now hostages to whomever is commanding the Intrepid be them Changelings or manipulated Starfleet officers being used as pawns in whatever long game is being played.
