The Prototype: The NX Class

Phase cannons won’t be installed until Tuesday.

I've always LOVED the sleek, streamlined visuals of the NX. It looks like a starfleet fighter jet almost. Love it.

for once we want to see a massive borg cube enter dominion space and get assimilated and the founders bearly escape. all cannon.

Bro the Deflector Dish is on the front of the ship. What do you mean “The NX-01 doesn’t use a deflector and relies on polarized hull plating”?

You keep on mentioning the NX as a class? Can you explain why?

The NX class can also be referred to as the Enterprise class

NX Class is my absolute favorite!

Broken bow, 4 days to Qo,noS - meanwhile Warp 4.5 (91.125xC ) 4 days = 0.99 lightyears ( Qo,noS) being some 200 lightyears from Earth .

I personally would've loved if we got S1 with the ship being built, but seeing as the show struggled enough as is I guess it's good we didn't start there. It 100% deserved another season though, and the ending still leaves me sour about Trip

👌🏿

The NX Class started from my Ramizo grandmother's during the 1970s Cold War. I had many Star Trek ships too. The Delta flyer was mine. I was the one making the Star Trek TV series, except TOS.

Nations should not annihilate each other. We need space techs and space ships, which already happened during Star Wars and Star Trek wars in the 1970s. So I think a few remaining advanced groups maintained their space techs and still have their Star Trek ships now, just CLASSIFIED.

the people behind the creation of the ship isnt important at all. the real world parts of the ship arent interesting. the lore of the ships are whats interesting. not who created it in the real world

Imagine how wonderful it could have been if the EV suits were the bizarre bronze color they picked and maybe a safety orange like 80s-90s NASA stuff. Oh well.

I loved the episode of Enterprise with the Borg in the second season. Awesome seeing the nx class vs a advanced Borg and prevail. Love this class. Captain Archer class

Without a doubt...my second favorite version of the Enterprise...next to CVN-65

I truely loved the NX-01! An awsome ship, bleding in with what came before AND feel futuristic despite beeing for a prequel show! Unlike the ships of newer shows and films this one achived what I expect of a ship of the Prime Timeline! And I had loved to see more of it :)

a year on earth that's a long time to get from there to here

Although the show itself does have many issues I really wished it continued purely so we could witness the NX-01 come closer and closer to actual completion.

Of course... one other thing I did like about this show is that comparitevly to things like the enterprise d or e the NX-01 constantly felt as if it was in danger (needing to go into catwalks to bypass dangerous areas, needing to be careful of weapon yeilds due to having no shields, needing to use shuttles to get to other ships or to planets surfaces when the conditions werent perfect due to the distrust or fiddlyness of transporters, which also involved needing to evacuate the launch bay because there wasnt just a permanent air shield, needing to be careful of its diplomatic relations else risk an unprepared Earth being attacked... I mean had the federation been established I doubt the Xindi probe would have worked) which overall gave the show a decent amount of tension... just wish it had been executed that little bit better... and that the higher ups hadn't axed it.

So basically, we started with a warp five prototype ship for exploring our local neighbourhood but we ended up with the Federation of United Planets.

I don't think that was in the original schematics.

In universe, the existing obsolete craft could have been used for traveling around the Federation, instead of being dismantled (unless the cost of maintenance was too high, and efficiency too low).

First off love this channel and everything you do.

:SALT INCOMING: 🤬 I feel like the art team could’ve done so much better with the enterprise NX. Other than a grappler hook , polarized hull plating, and at the beginning of the series they had laser cannons, It was just more of the same. impulse engines check. Phaser cannons check. Transporter technology check. Replicator technology check. typical saucer section check, antimatter core check. dilithium matrix check.

I mean, come on. They could’ve done so much better with technology that was supposed to be 100 years before Captain Kirk.

other than warp Drive, there should have been nothing tied to the original series because it hadn’t been invented yet.

where is the chemical advanced rockets for sub light speeds? Where is the projectile weapons and turret? Where are the cruiser type missiles that launch from the top and change direction towards the enemy? Where are the larger more decent sized shuttle crafts that look like an advance space shuttle with heat shields and rockets? Where is the fusion Core connected to a large capacitor to store enough power for warp drive for a period of time before it needs to be recharged because antimatter wasn’t a thing yet?

I could go on, but it’s pointless now . The NX Akiraprise rains supreme.. 😢

You missed the 1 or 2 worker bees in the secondary craft. They were only seen... twice I think. Once was at the shipyard so that one could have been on loan.

I would like more videos about it.

🖖😎👍Very cool and very nicely well done and informatively explained and executed in every detail way shape and form provided on this format and subject matter containing to the NX class starship's indeed guys and Sir!,👌.

a 25th century nx class would be really cool to see😊

the nx enterprise is a criminally underrated ship it deserves more respect

The NX class walked, crawled, and sometimes dragged itself forward, so its successors the Connie & Galaxy could run.

Well done

Is there enough information available for use to get a video on the obena-class starship?

Certifiably Ingame: Do you want really deep lore?

Us: ..... That's... Why I'm here.

There are many reasons why the NX-Class is my favourite, but its absolute refusal to say 'die' is one of them. The fact that the Enterprise could keep flying after the Battle of Azati Prime is incredible, let alone enter more battles, fly into a gravitic anomaly while overloading its deflector, and then not only continue to fly for an extended period in an atmosphere, but fight against technology developed by aliens centuries more advanced in said atmosphere.

They, and the crews that flew them, defined the phrase "where there's a will, there's a way."

There were more phasers. And puslse phasers were added and two extra torpedoe ports to poet and starboard. Season 4

The class was named the columbia class after the loss of columbia. Archers suggestion instead of enterprise class

I believe proxim shipyard made or or two nx class vessels.

🖖

The SBD on the impulse engines is likely a short hand for StarBoarD, or rear of ship.

Still one of my favorite enterprises.

ITS BEEN A LONGGGG ROAAADD.....GETTIN FROM THERE TO HERE! 🤣😁

The NX-01 is my favorite Star Trek ship. I remember watching the show and thought the slimmed down look of just the saucer and nacelles was such a cool profile. If I remember, the NX-01 had plasma cannons that were under powered so they installed the phase cannons but wired it wrong (because Trip didn't have all the instructions?) and actually made it more powerful. My only complaint at the time was I thought the ship shouldn't have had a transporter in the 1st season. It should have been a later upgrade like the cannons.

I don't care what some people think, THIS ship is beautiful and is one of my favourites due to the fact its the beginning of a era, its just beautiful all round and was still used years later.

A personal favourite of mine. Very fitting design for Starfleet of the 22nd Century, prototype though it may be. :)

I'm confused...NX 326 ...USS FRANKLIN Where does this vessel fit in? It's title is USS but it designation is NX 326

This still 1 of my top 5 favorite ships. I still feel robbed to never see the refit on tv.

A year of consulting, dicussing, refining the design ... people brought in ... several booklets full of concept sketches.

And then the producers say "The Akira-class was really popular. Really popular. Just take that model and flip the engines around".

I think there will always be a USS Enterprise, CVN 80 is under construction in Newport News at this moment. Even as CVN 65 is being dismantled.

I like that there was an agency dedicated to yeeting space probes
