… (Enterprise-B variant) from Star Trek.

"My favorite thing about the Excelsior refit are those two big ass impulse engines Starfleet slapped on the saucer. It's like they decided to turn some of the Excelsior's into hot rods. The Excelsior class in general is on my list of "ships I'd like to command if I somehow ended up in the Trekverse", along with the Constitution, Ambassador, NX, Nebula, and Intrepid classes."

The extra impulse engines are in a bad place.

The exhaust from the outboard pair of engines is obstructed by the warp engines. It's because they weren't part of the original Excelsior model, but were added for one of the movies.

I thought they supplied impulse power to the suacer if it detached for emergencies

Ugliest ship in the fleet, IMHO. Looks like a waste disposal facility.
