Fly me closer. I want to dictate the terms of surender to their captain face to face.

Either temporal meddling because there has to be an Enterprise, or they took the name from a species in the federation that had a weapon named Enterprise in their myth.
Or, sometime between 2024 and the current Stardate, someone created a legend about a sword named Enterprise.
Are we sure he's Andorian and not Sanghelli?

"No Klingons died without Honor in the making of this ship."
More along the lines of
"Captain, they outnumber us 3 to 1!"
"Good, then it is a fair fight"
Maybe someone named a ceremonial sword after the Earth ship Enterprise in honor of the Federation (you know, like some sort of ceremonial weapon tied to certain offices, I'd bet that the Andorians probably have a tradition like that and they insist that the Federation President needs a ceremonial sword). And then they can point to that sword to justify naming their new ship after their old ship.

I'm wondering how it would go if this Enterprise and the canon one due to some event having an encounter with eachother?
Just how would they react to the differences?

That IS the kind of thing that would happen XD Darn quantum fissures.
Impressed but a bit concerned at the focus on war over science. Not excessively though, it's not like this ship is Terran or anything. Scotty is jealous of the engines and machine shop.
It's an Andorian sword name run through the universal translator

That was my thought for the three-on-one. Namely that the Excalibur April was XO on took out the first D7 then lost shields, killing the captain. April then pulled a Picard and took command of the stricken ship, taking out a second D7 before weapons were lost. Then he did something suitably clever (I was thinking some sort of deflector graviton beam or using the aft torpedo tube as a minelayer) that finished off the final D7 before it could finish the job. It was mainly a thought experiment considering 'what would get a First Officer the moniker of 'fair fight' and immediately punted to captain, but also lose the ship they were on'.

The Gorn love ambush tactics, and are the only species in Star Trek to understand Electronic Warfare and embrace it as a doctrine. They can still get caught on the back foot... but once they get on the front again there's going to be consequences.
I favor the mine layer option. Using the Deflector as a weapon never actually works and is more a TNG thing, it's better for manipulating space whatsits.

Better (or worse? ) TOS, Kelvin, and Temporal "Enterprise" meet in a neutral "Realm." "Manage" to ascertain that it's not a Mirror verse scenario... and then get to looking at the the design changes. And commenting. (Bigger question, is Kelvin Scotty going to the only one flinging shit at the other two? )
Honestly, one option there might be using the high maneuverability + decent science score to dodge a volley of Klingon photon torpedoes and cause them to lock on to the ship that launched them - turning the Klingons own weapons against them.

Hmm... this seems a little bit odd. The second order was made in 2237, and the ships were commissioned in 2238, presumably entering service in early 2239. Yet the third "crash-build" order entered production in 2241 and the ships didn't enter service until late 2243.
Seems to me the crash builds took longer than the regular builds. I'd have expected it to be the opposite.

Very Hunt for Red October, I approve. Involve a nebula for the traditional submarine battle aesthetics.
I've no idea how it would go down, but man I'd love to read an omake or two about this.

That third batch are 6 ships vs 4 in the first one.
That crash build happened during the war and I would be not that surprised if the damage to infrastructure and raiding of supply lines delayed build while also working overtime keeping the ship they already have maintained and repaired.
Fixed. The intention was always the crash builds would get them done in 1.5/1.75 years rather than the normal two.

I need to see the Enterprise-A design at some point though. What a handsome ship
Bit of a long shot (since we've only ever refit/rebuilt a ship ourselves once), but I'd like to imagine that we'll be doing the designing ourselves. Likely as the basis for all other ships of that coming generation (which is a common fanon for the redesign, iirc).
Just to clarify, did the Enterprise survive the events of the 3rd movie in this timeline or did the full rebuild still count as one ship?
I noticed that there were 18 unique names and 18 ships launched so figured that it meant that the Enterprise managed to survive.
