G'Day Matthew

The inspiration for the OU ships comes from the 'Fifth Element' movie,
in 
that film the Earth ships were flattened cylinders with conning tower
and a 
array of antennae protruding from the front. So it's probably safe to
say 
that the 'prongs' on the OU ships are indeed sensor/communications
antennae.
