The U.S.S. Rhode Island NCC-72701 was an alternate future vessel, sharing many similarities with Nova-class ships from the prime universe such as U.S.S. Equinox NCC-72381, but with a different design of warp nacelles and escape pods.

Whereas the original Nova-class from the 2370s was limited to a maximum warp factor of warp 8 and was considered a planetary research vessel, the Rhode Island was designed for long term deep space assignments

The Rhode Island was commanded by Captain Harry Kim, and assigned to a four-year exploration mission. In 2404, the Rhode Island defended Admiral Janeway’s shuttlecraft when it came under attack by two Negh’Var warships

This model is die-cast, hand-painted.  A great addition to your collection!
