Well there hasn't been a new ship design put up for a bit so I thought I'd throw one together and see what happens. The dauntless is the "fake" starship supposedly sent to rendevous with voyager. Comments are always welcome.

When the holographic doctor from the USS Voyager sent back voyager’s logs in 2374 included among them was all the data that had been gathered about the fake federation vessel USS Dauntless. ASDB was intrigued about the possibility of a slip stream drive capable vessel and began working on the feasibility of such a vessel. A year later they were given the go ahead to build a prototype vessel to test the slip stream drive. It took 2 years to build the ship as it’s spaceframe was highly unusual. 2377 saw the launch of the NX Dauntless. ASDB tried for 3 years to get the slip stream drive to function properly. Like transwarp centuries ago, they simply could not make it work. So like the Excelsior a standard warp drive was installed. The ship along with the Prometheus is the most advanced ship in Starfleet. It has holographic emitters scattered throughout the ship and fields a holographic prototype. With all the data brought back with voyager, Dr. Zimmerman created the Emergency Engineering Hologram (EEH). Along with the EMH Mk. 2 Long duration medical hologram, the ship is highly automated requiring a crew of only 38. The ship also incorporates improved replicators. Voyager brought back with them specifications for molecular synthesis, a technology that allows replication at the molecular level.
The advanced warp drive is very reliable but very delicate, requiring constant monitoring by the engineering staff.
