Background

This odd ship was created by Dan Curry (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine VFX staff), for whom the first vessel seen on screen was named.

The Raging Queen has a very similar design to the Curry-type. It may be another of that variant, but with subtle differences due to manufacturing of the vessel - i.e. slightly different parts used. It is unclear if this vessel is a Curry-type, or another type designation altogether.

Technical Manual

The following information of specifications and defenses comes exclusively from the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual, with regards to the Raging Queen:

  • Type: Medium cruiser
  • Production Base: ASDB Integration Facility, Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards, Mars
  • Accommodation: 290 officers and crew
  • Power Plant: Two 1500+ Cochrane warp core feeding two nacelles; four impulse systems
  • Dimensions:
    • Length: 383.41 meters
    • Beam: 195.64 meters
    • Height: 148.50 meters
  • Mass: 1270000 metric tons
  • Performance: Warp 9.75 for 12 hours
  • Armament: Ten type-9 phaser emitters; two photon torpedo launchers

While the Technical Manual itself is not canon, it is a Memory Alpha permitted resource.

Apocrypha

The vessel has been given the non-canon designation Shelley-class by fans on the Internet, after the author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, a reference to the fact that, like the creature in Shelley's story, the Shelley-class are a gruesome collection of various part that were never meant to fit together.

There is also speculation that this ship class is meant to be a Marine troop transport, given its forward mounted shuttlebay (which would make it easy for troops to egress the ship while being deployed) and secondary hull (which could be a detachable troop barracks).
