The "USS Dauntless". When engaging the slipstream drive the ship's engines made a distinctive rumble. The "nose" of the ship glowed and distorted before the ship disappeared into the quantum slipstream.

The primary saucer section was designed in the shape of an arrowhead, reminiscent of a recent Starfleet prototype vessel, namely USS Prometheus NX-59650 visited by the Doctor in the Alpha Quadrant in [#82 Message in a Bottle] (article). USS Dauntless also featured Starfleet's familiar twin warp nacelle configuration although located beneath the engineering hull. The hull, however, was shaped differently so that the ship could withstand the stresses caused by the ship's quantum slipstream drive.
