I just took the numbers that were put up there earlier in the thread and translated it into something that actually COULD be put in the style of DITL.

Length 1923
Beam 1410
Height 435
Decks 126
Quad nacelle warp drive, quad impulse drive.
Crew of 5,000 with a 10,000 Marine Armored Division.
120 Fighters + troop transports + shuttles. (Fighters to be armed with QTs for use in fleet actions)
Retracting flight pods
Medical assets fit for up to 5,000 persons (this could include large numbers of stasis pods).
Weapons - 24 Mk18 dual turrets (8 dorsal, 8 ventral, 4 bow, 4 stern). 48 phaser/PTL turrets (two for each Mk18 turret at 50 rounds each), 2 pair of RFQTLs forward (250 rounds each). 80 Type III PTL (40 per flight pod at 500 rounds each) 16 Phaser/PTL turrets aft (4 per nacelle with 50 rounds each).
Munitions, 1000 QTs, 43,300 PTs
Armor - Outer hull 5m ablative, inner hull 5m high density.
Shields - Two overlapping bubble layers plus one skin layer (twenty five terajoules million each).
I added 16 DS9 turrets to the engines for aft protection. It was simple enough so I didn't feel the need to bring it in for debate. However, the flight pods currently lack any form of defensive ability outside of their PTLs. We also have no PDWs in place. Both of these will need to be addressed before this class can enter production.

The thing is, Star Fleet ship designs while pretty are pretty shitty for combat, the engines are sticking right out there and the bridge is exposed.
No Federation ship is a good base for a Battlestar, you would have to totally re do the design from the ground up.

The Vengeance and any other Starlet ship is crap. The saucer is crap for fighters and support ships. Those engines are highly vulnerable.
