Star Trek: Every Enterprise Ranked Worst To Best

16. Ring Ship XCV-330

Ring Ship Enterprise
CBS

In continuity, this starship is the earliest version of the starship Enterprise. The design is beautiful and is in fact based on some of Matt Jefferies' earliest concepts for the Original Series. The rings inspired the Vulcan ships of the Enterprise series. To date, it has appeared in The Motion Picture, Enterprise and Into Darkness, in picture and model format.

There is not a lot to the ship however, apart from it being quite a lovely design. That being said, it stands out from the rest in that it is the most different, unique looking vessel in the bunch.

We may have yet to see her as anything more than a reproduction on-screen, but the Enterprise XCV-330 will receive a warm welcome when it does finally appear.
