Well, one of the previous Akira I've seen had a more spherical-looking under-saucer module housing the navigational deflector.

Some hungered for a friday screenshot and they've had it. The crickets are silent now, hopefully. ^_^;

It's a beautiful picture, but my opinion that the Akira is overpresented for Star Trek Online remains. It's like eating your favorite cereals over and over - eventually, you get sick of eating them and yearn for something different.
