Bump!!! Check out the links on this thread for excellent fleet / ship images.

Hi there, your best bet to finding answers is to post questions in the Starfleet Academy forum in the future.

In answer to your specific question, in-game there are databases on each Tier of ships. You can find this in the Ship Requisitions room, up the ramp in the Shipyard area of Earth Spacedock. Inside the Ship Requisitions room, go to the back wall with the ship holograms.

Hope that helps!

I'm building a substantial gallery.
