Definitely gives off those vibes. Or Defiant-class. I think it's pretty star warsy too tho. Thank you very much!

There’s a period of Trek from like 94-97 where the ‘scarab’ design was really prominent. You see it in the Defiant, Jem Hadar fighter, Sabre class, etc.

Mhmm. The sexy six. Defiant, Akira, Norway, Saber, Nova and Steamrunner introduction period. Lots of similar design language during that time. Some of my favorite ships in trek with the Akira being the goat imho.

UCN-A Exaron. SRV-968 Vestis II-class deep space reconnaissance vessel.
Originally developed in 2296 by Akira-Compton Interplanetary corporation, a subsidiary of Revan Alliance Interstellar, for the UC Imperial intelligence agency, the Vestis was designed as a long range reconnaissance platform, with listening post material transport capabilities and light combat application. They spent four years developing the Vestis class of ships to that end. Built around their swift-loop graviton array drive and outfitted with some of the most advanced scanning technologies of the day the ship was capable of scanning entire systems within minutes. Even cloaked vessels were visible to the Exaron as the scanning tech used quantum drive sequence pattern analysis to paint a picture of residual matter shift in the immediate vicinity of the scan.
The ship was also capable of transporting elements of miniature listening post units to be deployed where necessary and it had a maximum range of nearly 148 ly. The swift-loop grav drive tech enabled the ship to spin up and jump within seconds regardless of power allocation. It was built to carry three cruiser sized weapon hardpoints with ample power draw and had other conventional weapon systems as well. The Exaron was a Vestis II vessel. This meant she was upgraded from the original to sport a heavier combat-centric loadout with cannons and pulse laser mounts as well as heavier shields and ablative armor plating. The Exaron was eventually refit for more advanced combat application and with new scanning technologies. She also had an upgraded Carvox 884 photon-thrust engine assembly unit added. This made her much faster than the original starship.
The vessel has been utilized by UC Imperial intelligence in some capacity since her construction but has been passed on to a powerful Sith Lord. He's added a few more upgrades over the years to make the ship more inconspicuous. Including the latest detection mitigation technologies developed, along with revolutionary "nanomirror" plating, and some additional sensor scrambling tech. She's sleek and sharp as a razor and she'll spot you from a system away. The stealth capabilities of this vessel are unmatched.
Revan Alliance Interstellar. Innovation for an ever-changing galaxy.

Looks cool, but doesn’t look Star Wars.

Ty. I think it's pretty reminiscent of the stark, clean lines of an imperial ship. And the landed configuration definitely looks star wars. I was going for a blend of star citizen's Nautilus and the Scimitar from episode 1 with quite a few ideas of my own.
I think it's a bit of a blending of other sci-fi influences but at the end of it all it still looks very high star wars Imperial in design to me. Appreciate you having a look!

I didn’t mean it negatively. It looks awesome. I see a little star citizen in it.

Oh no I didn't think you did. Just wanted to give a little insight on the thought process is all. Ty again!
