Drooooooling

Just so...sexy...
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

My initial reaction on seeing this ship was "no".

I'd rather see 24th century version of A-10 warthog.

Yes that.  I'm sorry, but most fan fic ships are horrendous and that one is no exception. 
But thanks for sharing it all the same :)

The physical design of the ship is far from a "fan fic ship".  The Valiant design was one of the early concepts for the U.S.S. Defiant that didn't pan out.  Sadly, it's not hte most graceful looking ship in the fleet.

While I can see Defiant as pleasing design, this thing look just like Voyager vs. Yeager (beaty vs. mutant beast), infact this shares the same principle of kitbashing as Yeager class, if you look closer you will see, front part is clearly a modified Defiant with 'nacelles' heading wrong way, while the back is clearly a futuristic Maquis Raider (Yeager was Intrepid saucer and Raider as a secondary hull)

which means - no love from me  :P

Gods that thing is awful! It is like someone has left the Defiant out to melt. What lazy designers

the fic yes BUT the design NO.
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

As far as fic goes it's not bad, in fact it's quite good. And I like most of the ship designs, especially the Kerchan and the Falkirk (this one reminds me from something out of that legend Battlefield 2142 :D)
