Vor'cha class attack cruiser, STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION (1990)
Klingon Vor'cha class attack cruiser. The Vor'cha class vessel was designed by Scenic Artist Rick Sternbach. First appearing in Season Four's "Reunion", the ship was intended to succeed the ubiquitous Klingon battle cruiser which had been constructed for 1979's STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE: "The familiar D-7 type battle cruiser, even with its updated look from the STAR TREK feature films, was getting perhaps too familiar, and I got the chance to come up with a new ship. The original design style of the battle cruiser was never far from my mind, since it was such an iconic Matt Jefferies creation, and I was always determined to provide some kind of lineage, some continuity, some evolution that viewers could recognize in the new hardware. On top of that, keeping Starfleet and alien styles distinct and interesting was what many believe set STAR TREK apart from other sci-fi productions. "

Again, probably the nostalgia talking, but 90s Trek alien ship design remains unmatched.

Vor'cha class attack cruiser model, STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION (1990)
Vor'cha class attack cruiser studio model on the VFX motion control stage. The Vor'cha class cruiser was designed by Scenic Artist Rick Sternbach for TNG Season Four's "Reunion". Intended to replace or supplement the often used Bird-of-Prey and K'Tinga studio models built for the motion pictures, TNG's very own, unique Klingon starship was intended to evoke the alliance of the Federation with the Klingons: "The structure, as well as the hull coloration, was meant to show a slight blending of Klingon and Starfleet technology, seeing as how there was something of a détente in operation. The idea here was to combine elements of the original battle cruiser (and the hyper-detailed versions from the movies) with some slight Starfleet influence, as though there was some deliberate technology sharing between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. The color was a bit lighter and less of a saturated dark green, the wing lines a bit curvier, but overall still recognizable as Klingon."

The K'Tinga class served the Klingon Empire well for decades, but following the loss of the Narendra III colony at the hands of the Romulans, it time for a renewed fleet. The Vor'cha class was designed to adapt the successes of the K'Tinga for the next generation.

Latest #StarTrek acquisition: the Playmates Klingon Vor'cha class attack cruiser and the Romulan D'Deridex class warbird from the 90s. Both were in box, with the batteries removed, so the electronics still work. Stands from Display Stands Direct on eBay

These shots from #StarTrekTNG's "Redemption I"⬆️ and the previous episode "In Theory"⬇️ nicely illustrate that the Vor'cha class bridge set is a redress of the torpedo control room set from the earlier episode. :-)

The Klingon nightclub on Qo'noS in #StarTrekTNG's "Redemption II"⬇️ is a redress of the Enterprise-D torpedo lab in last season's "In Theory"↖️. The set itself was redressed and Klingonized in part 1 of "Redemption"↗️, where it appeared as Gowron's Vor'cha class bridge.

This is Hyacinth Bouquet speaking to you from the communication system of a Vor'cha class cruiser with a cloaking device, disruptor emitters and photon torpedo launchers. I cannot send you another portion of snail juice with extra shells. This is not the Ferengi restaurant.

Most Star Trek ships are kind of built like very early Age of Sail warships: lots of guns pointing in every direction.

Maybe the Vor’cha, Defiant, and Galaxy-X are designed to exploit that—sacrifice firing angles for just one big gun to overmatch any one enemy ship.
Mary Rose, 16th century English carrack warship. USS Defiant in Star Trek: First Contact, firing forward-fixed phaser cannons. Vor’cha-class Klingon cruiser in Star Trek: The Next Generation, featuring one massive prow-mounted disruptor cannon. Potential future version of USS Enterprise in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “All Good Things,” with a giant forward-fixed gun on the bottom of the saucer section. Called the X variant of the Galaxy-class in the game Star Trek: Birth of the Federation, so in the fandom it’s popularly known as the “Galaxy-X.”

I love this shot of the Vor'cha class attack cruiser and its shield bubble being briefly visible as it is hit by a torpedo in the original ⬅️ and remastered ➡️ versions of #StarTrekTNG's "Redemption I". Again: a shot perfectly recreated for the remastering. :-)

David Stipes (Visual Effects Supervisor DS9 seasons 4-7), used these sizes for various ships on the show (🧵2/3)

Klingon:
Vor'Cha = 1500'
Neg'Var = 2250'
Small Bird of Prey = 360'
Martok's Bird of Prey = 450'

Here's a comparison of how the Vor'cha class attack cruiser model appears in footage in the remastered versions of #StarTrekTNG's "Reunion"⬇️ and "Redemption I"⬆️ for which Modern Video ⬇️ and CBS Digital ⬆️ were responsible. You can see how different approaches were taken.

Here are a few more shots that highlight how the torpedo bay in #StarTrekTNG's "In Theory"↖️↗️ was first redressed as the Vor'cha class attack cruiser bridge in "Redemption I"⬅️➡️ and then was used as the Klingon night club on Qo'noS in "Redemption II"↙️↘️.

Here's another angle of the bridge of Gowron's Vor'cha class attack cruiser, as seen in #StarTrekTNG's "Redemption I"⬆️ that shows that the set is a redress of the torpedo lab seen in the previous episode "In Theory"⬇️.
