The Galaxy-I class was the one we saw in TNG. The Galaxy-II class was a refit for the Dominion War which featured additional phaser arrays on top of the warp nacelles in addition to most of the internal scientific equipment being removed to increase power efficiency & make more room for troops, additional torpedo storage, & other things needed for the war effort. The Galaxy-III is the one we saw in TNG:AGT.

There are a few things that make sense here that you both seemed to be confused by: 1) Having the third nacelle mounted on the secondary hull with the standard two means that you do not need a redundant engineering section in the primary hull. That space is wasted space that can be allocated to a war fighting mission. 2) As TNG described it in the very first episode, the saucer separation was intended to allow the non-combatants such as family to be removed from combat. Yes, without warp capability you leave them at the mercy of the enemy if you lose, but by cutting your power by 1/3 you make more likely that loss in the first place. If the situation is such that there is no confidence that they will survive, then the best course of action is to retreat with the entire ship. 3) No Dreadnought should be carrying non-combatants. Or at least not enough to have to worry about leaving them behind when you go into combat. Frankly, no Dreadnought should even have a separable saucer. If it does, then it should have 2 warp nacelles for the saucer section, and 3 or 4 for the secondary hull, and the intent would be to have what is essentially two war-fighting ships act as one but be capable of splitting up if required by the situation.

This actually makes perfect sense for these new elements to be so jarring. After all it was time of great need so the Federation had to upgun and upgrade everything as fast as possible, so there wasn't time to make it pretty. Functional and doable was good enough. Blended with elegant and considerate lines of the original Galaxy it surely creates a dissonance, but reasonable dissonance and that gives this refit a very unique feel. I like it, albeit not as much as the original ship. Also, sensor pods explanation for the nacelle fins actually makes much sense (one of the MSD-like cross-sections).

thought... seeing as Riker is a Five Star Admiral it's possible his entire staff is on board the vessel. this may be why the "Mega Cannon" is mounted externally with the extra shielding... the camel hump of the third nacelle could hold an extra warp core. While I understand Captain Foley's complaints that it ruins the lines but for me it reminds me of where beauty is in the eye of the beholder.... maybe in THIS timeline Riker became the direct successor to Picard and rescued it from the scrapyards by making it his mobile headquarters. I Imagine if the TOS movies 2-4 had happened differently then Admirals Kirk or (maybe) Spock would have retained the Alphabet soup free 1701 as their personal flag, ordering Scotty to make custom upgrades to it while the rest of the Connies were pulled from front line service.

The whole refit design feels like a rush job that was a product of that specific timeline. Starfleet finally realizing it had a problem on it's hands and having to rush through upgrades to bring an explorer ship up to full warship standards as they realize they were falling behind the more aggressive Klingons. I'd imagine that a lot of ships got clunky add-ons to increase firepower because strapping on modular upgrades would be easier than building whole new ships.

-Nebula was a precursor to Galaxy -The Galaxy has gone through at least 2 major refits. The original design in 2363, After the Borg 2366 that augmented it's power systems, and yet another in 2370. This would mean the Galaxy X would be a Mk III or Mk IV -The original Dreadnought isn't a modification to a Constitution Class it's a dedicated design with no modifications. The Galaxy X has several contradictions: The additional nacelle removes all the ports to refuel the hydrogen supply and doesn't replace them. It also blocks the exhaust of the new impulse engines (if you believe impulse engines are rockets). The new impulse engines cover over shuttle bays 2 and 3 and places the Center Axis of thrust too high for level flight. The canon bridges from Saucer to Stardrive which would disallow a separation of any kind. It's not a good design at all. -

I know its a bit late, but in STO the lore for the Galaxy Dreadnought was based on how after the episode, Picard submitted a report to starfleet about the events of the episode, including Q putting Picard in an alternate reality for this latest test. This was why the crew had no knowledge of what happened. Anyway, Picard described for star fleet in full detail the Galaxy Dreadnought in the future time frame. The reason he did this was he had this feeling that Q, being able to travel through time as he saw fit, might have actually gone into the future to see what elements he would need to use to make the time period feel right. Anyway, after making his report he also added in that the Federation should try to not end up in a war situation with the Klingons. Additionally that starfleet should never make this refit of the galaxy class. Of course, however, things basically unfolded the way they did in that timeline with a few exceptions. Romulans got wasted by a supernova, not a super virus. Relations with the KDF went south with the return of the Undine. So, starfleet in all its "we know whats best better than you" mentality went ahead and using the information Picard gave in that report, did exactly what he said not to, and made an armada of galaxy dreadnoughts.

I'd always theorized the third nacelle was for backup/stress reduction/redundancy. Of all the star ships we see blown up or broken in Star Trek, the Galaxy Class has a horrible habit of being taken completely out when a Nacelle is blown out. Seeing as this ship is meant for Combat in a way that most previous galaxies weren't, it makes sense to adjust for one of the class' greatest weaknesses. You can lose a Nacelle, win the fight, and still warp home without catastrophically blowing up.

Three of the first batch were lost. E-D was GCS-002, Yamato was GCS-003, tempting fate Odyssey was GCS-004....not looking good for GCS-001.

I know I am a bit late but I was thinking about the 3rd nacelle and the megaphaser. and a schematic showing that the megaphaser was a deflector dish. one thing that might explain the 3rd nacelle in combination with the extra warp core and a possible deflector dish in the megaphaser would be if they used the 3rd warp nacelle to produce a warp field that they somehow channel into the phaser. they have around the beam emitter a deflector ring they would be able to send a tightly focused warp field and then send phased energy through that warp beam while using the deflector ring to remove any debris out of the path of the megaphaser. so you end up with a beam that is accelerated to warp speeds going towards a ship which would allow it to rip through the enemy ship's armor as though it were tissue paper. the deflector ring would keep any debris from flying towards the enterprise and would push debris from the explosion out of the path of the beam thus allowing it to continue through the ship and potentially into another ship. (the tightly focused warp field beam would also add additional structural damage to the enemy ship.

10:00 I love the warp fins, as redundant as 1950s car tail fins it's a stylistic addition that gives the overly rounded Galaxy class design a sharper edge. 27:27 I've always felt that the Galaxy class bridge is too small like a doctors waiting room, I want the refit bridge shown plus the side consoles from Generations & a MSD glass panel that's semi translucent/see through between the tactical console & the captain (up on the horseshoe) that can change to show mission briefings. The main cannon does need to be sleeker and shorter but it's an awesome addition that could of been incorporated into the Galaxy wings portrayed in the Dominion War as a kind mission specific addition that signifies a Galaxy is in use as a battleship rather than explorer.

That chart refers to this as the Galaxy III because of a production error in a DS9 episode where they reused the model to depict another galaxy class ship but forgot to remove all of the additions from "all good things" (leaving the add-ons to the engines).

There was a piece or two from the Galaxy Class 'Dreadnought' they did NOT removed from the modded model (which was a 3 ft or 4 ft model; the hero model IS the 6-ft model used in the first season of TNG and Generations...). These pieces are the extra phaser strips on top of the warp nacelles. The other modification to the Galaxy II is on the neck of the ship... It's colored dark to indicate armoring that was done to a weak spot on the ship's design. Remember what happened to the Galaxy Class USS Odyssey in an episode of DS9? That's why the neck was armored in the upgrade/refit!

The Galaxy II and III on the comparison may refer to the first and second generations of the Galaxy Class. The first six ships of the class including Enterprise and Galaxy were launched with another six space frames completed but placed in storage as they were deemed too wast full to be activated at that point. When the Borg attacked the alpha quadrant and destroyed the fleet at Wolf 359. The stored space frames were pulled out of storage and completed to re-enforce the fleet. These new ships would be part of the next generation (no pun intended) of Galaxy Class ships. if design variations were incorporated during this time then these ships would logically be designated as Galaxy Mk II or Galaxy II for short. The physical shape among other things change on the Enterprise between the series and Generations. To me this means that at some point, the Enterprise a Galaxy Mk I was retrofitted into a Mk II. As the next major refit we know of for the Galaxy class is the Galaxy X, it is safe to assume that this would be a Galaxy Mk III. I've seen the Constitution referred to as Mk I and Mk II so there is a precedent for such a naming system. Just my two cents.

When you think about it, the ships make a bit of sense. When you think about it, the Dominion War showed the need for a more heavily-armed Starfleet, and surely used up a lot of Federation resources. The Galaxy and Nebula classes are big, and have plenty of space for more weaponry. The odd looks even make sense, as the surviving hulls simply had more equipment tacked on, a much cheaper alternative to creating whole new ships. I would have liked to see MORE weapons, with this line of thinking in mind.

My theory on the Lance is that it's a transphasic phaser. So it's bypassing Shields like the Duran Sisters or Jem'Hadar. The extra bulk is the equipment required to push it out of phase. Or something like quantum tunnelling. But more than just brute-force big phaser. Because that'd beg the question of why this wasn't done sooner. Unless a new warp core gave it the horsepower to support the megamega phaser. Can of worms!

As a avid Trek-Role-player, we tend todo the whole 'Trekyards' treatment on ships and bases all the time. Hey, that begs the question, are you guys gonna do Starbases too? They're just as cool as the ships! D: Anyway... the Galaxy-II (The minor refit in DS9), I've always been under the impression was to improve two things. Extra-Phaser Arc, and the structural weakness taken advantage of in the episode where the Odyssey gets rammed by the kamikaze-Dominion-Bug. They increased the S.I.F, as well as the build of the neck, to reduce the risk. I also tend to write that they updated the interior to match the Generations Refit that the D got in the movie (the different bridge, and darker interior look). Thus, I think of the Generations-D, to be the Galaxy-II, even though there was no change to the nacelles. But anyway, I love the Entente Class (as I name it, instead of Galaxy-X). Certainly my preference over the normal-Galaxy.

When I was a kid I thought this ship was the coolest thing! When I finally got the Eaglemoss model, though, I came to see it as...sort of a hodgepodge? It kinda makes me think of a Sega Genesis with a Sega CD and 32X attached...!

Consider that the fins may have been useful for heat dissipation and shield distribution, functions that would be important given the ship's beefier, more combat-oriented, and more power-hungry design when compared to previous iterations of the ship.

Main Shuttle Bay has always been the full deck. I think it was meant to be used most of the time in the show, but was too expensive to build the set. It's kinda like a big circle. Ship could have acted as a carrier of sorts.

I remember seeing the 1701 d blueprints, and I always thought the very bottom of the saucer section contained a separable "captain's yacht". this new lance covers it almost completely. that's my problem with it...ALMOST completely. its still there... but covered up with a lance...

The Galaxy II class is the same as the USS Venture seen in DS9, we only ever saw them on that ship and they re-used the additions from the Galaxy X but rotated 180°. I would assume there are other Galaxy class ships with that addition out there but they were never seen on the CGI models used in later DS9 episodes.

My issues with the galaxy refit are: the center nacelle, the saucer blocks the bussard collector. Point and shoot weapons in an era of phaser arrays. In case of saucer seperation, phaser cannon loses warp power and fins and mega phasers make it look like a bug from the front view

One technical point on this is that the third nacelle is in the way of the impulse engine vent on the saucer section. The TOS dreadnoughts had their third engine above the impulse vent. Seems like this would not bode well for the nacelle strut

Not that they ever used it, but the phaser cannon is built right over the captain's yacht.

The Galaxy 2 was probably a reference to the Venture seen in DS9 which added phaser arrays strips to the top of the nacelles. Also note the fins on the bottom of the struts, this made me wonder is it has some Quantum slip stream

You mentioned a Nebula refitted like the Galaxy Dreadnought, like a Nebula X Class: I've seen a few picks around, though for the life of me I can't find any now :( but I did send a couple through to the STO development team. They said no, but I live in hope that that beautiful vessel will get to shine properly (science vessel indeed, *huff*) The last image, from STO, has the ATARI logo and is not representative of the current In-Game model which had a face lift recently to bring the lines and details more in-line with the TNG models, but even before that, the lance cannon was made much larger and more like the one we see in AGT. I agree that overall, she's nowhere near as nice a design as she could have been and did just look like the Enterprise with bits 'stuck on' afterwards. I know she was, but they could have put more thought into the shapes. Personally, I think the lance cannon should be integrated more into the saucer and I think there's plenty of hull space, with all the science facilities removed, to integrate additional torpedo launchers directly into the hull rather than behind the bridge. IMO the cannons and third nacelle look completely out of place and are entirely redundant, though I do like the bulked up neck with the additional impulse engines.

I was never sure the things attached to the bridge were guns. They certainly could be but I also thought they may be sensors of some kind.

The Galaxy 2 is DS9 era. The nacelle humps have a phaser strip. And when they returned the Galaxy X to Galaxy they kept it for the USS Venture (way of the warrior). Then the CGI one lost it.

This may have been addressed in earlier comments but I noticed in one of the cutaway diagrams that those fins are labeled as "pylon sensor array".

The issue of cooling a weapon in space is actually pretty important. Space itself has no temperature and no medium, so there is no thermal convection. The only way for the produced heat to be transported away from the weapon is by radiation and that is a much slower process.

Maybe the saucer still separates leaving the gun attached to the main body of the ship and the captain's yacht (possibly warp capable) could then launch. Hey, maybe the 3rd warp nacelle can separate and then tractor the saucer (hence the engine windows). Or the yacht undocks and the third nacelle can dock in that spot after undocking from the rear section? Obviously this "design" was a contrived inexpensive model modification to do something new without spending any money. After all the show was ending.
