2 | Speculative | Miranda Refit - refit (243 m) This is one of the most difficult lengths to work out - any way you do it seems to give a radically different answer. There are at least three possibilities : Mr. Stipes says that the Miranda class is 500 - 560 feet (152 to 171 metres) long. From the scale diagram on Page 317 of the Encyclopedia (1st edition), we get 243 metres (compared to the E-A). Using the Omnipedia diagram comparing the Daedalus, Oberth, Miranda, and Intrepid class ships ('show resource' entry under Starships), we get 259 metres (compared to a 343 metre Intrepid). In the end I arbitrarily decided to use the 243 metre figure because it looked like the best match to what we saw of the USS Reliant in Startrek II. |

3 | Speculative | Soyuz Class (243 m) The Soyuz model was a re-use of the standard Miranda model with a few add on pods, so should be classed as having the same length. |
