This model has a poly count of 2055 and it uses a four 1024 x 1024 texture maps. Also included are
a set of 512 x 512 texture maps for slower computers and a set of alternate 512 x 512 dark hull
textures and a new phaser flare.

Multiple attempts were made to contact the orginal authors in order to seek their
permission to use and convert this model to Star Trek Armada.  These attempts were unsucessful; 
however, if said authors don't wish for thier work to be used by the A1 community every attempt 
will be made to remove it from download locarions.
