    Here’s my go at it:

    Perseverance-class Starship, 45 degree view

    Front of ship

    My rationale is this is an Intrepid-based Miranda replacement attempt. The boom below the nacelles can be configured for extra weapons, sensors, or even as nacelles to allow an improved warp geometry for towing vessels below the ship (although good for towing, the ship has overall slower max speeds this way). They can also just be straight-up removed, the fastest configuration for the ship, as it get rid of the structural integrity field requirements for the boom.
