A New Orleans class starship

In the Star Trek fictional universe, the New Orleans class is a rarely seen starship class used by Starfleet, the military and exploration arm of the United Federation of Planets. New Orleans class starships appear to be related to the Galaxy class; the saucer appears to be merely a scaled down version of the Galaxy's primary hull, the engineering section is similar, though lacking the thin enginepylonattachment section at the stern and likewise scaled down, and the nacelles appear to be a small version of the Galaxy's, though with a smaller width:length ratio.
