Starfleet Design Bureau

I do really want to diverge from standard federation design a bit here at some point, maybe take more elements from Andorian and Vulcan ships.

Federation ships have always seemed very Human to me.
 
[X] Dorsal-Hugging Nacelles (+0.2 Warp Cruise Factor)

I am unsure of how long the ship will be able to maintain the sprint speed, so I'm going to vote for a higher sustainable speed. Depending on the distance, this may well work out to a higher overall speed. It might not, but we don't have enough information to tell for certain.

With how low warp speeds are let's get a better cruiser speed.

also if we get a ship between this and the nx I suggest a ship using the main hull from this ship with like a bunch of cargo modules attached to a long spine that extends behind the ship and then either 2 regular or larger warp nacelles or perhaps 4-6 ones to get the thing up to speed. Similar to the tau ship someone mentioned earlier.
 
If this is supposed to be fast response for local raids, then emphasizing max speed rather than cruising speed makes sense. The ship needs to cross the solar system, not the galaxy.
