It’s above the deflector in the nose section. You can see it clearly marked in the diagram shown in the middle of the video, although it’s modelled below the deflector on the cgi in the video. It wasn’t modelled on the model used in the show but we can assume it’s behind a hull panel on the actual ship, like the two on either side of the refit Enterprises saucer section.

Funny thing was the only way Romulans would let the federation borrow that cloaking device was if it was operated by a romulan crew member. They kept this up for like 2 episodes then never brought up again.

I love these videos where you analyse the decks in detail, its awesome. I always like seeing the little beds and to see where the crew actually slept and all that. Defiant is super cool, small and compact, but I see theres lot of space left, they could have use it for bigger crew quarters maybe, and Im always a sucker for a movable nacelles, it would be so cool if Defiant had those, similar like Delta flyer

@tonep3168 I think it would be too expensive to build actually improve on. Imagine a ship like that. You're looking at probably leaves 15 billion dollars. At least one man, even with a wealth cannot do it by himself. You'll need investors to do that even like the starship enterprise. Imagine if they build that or forget it. The price will be out of this world not to mention the technology. You need to run that in space and keep it up there indefinitely. It will happen in time. I think, but not in our lifetime.

I'm glad you covered the warhead in greater detail, it's a surprisingly overlooked aspect of the ship. Also, its kind of wild to imagine evacuating the crew to the 'warhead', and having 30 people cram into a massive antimatter bomb that is armed with full a compliments of torpedo's and a couple of bedrooms.
