Yes, but the above referenced site discusses more than just ships. The 
site has essays ranging from political systems to command and control. 
Let's face it, an empire that spans a thousand thousand worlds, can 
communicate instantaneously on galactic distances, and has the technical 
ability and political will to build a space station capable of 
destroying a planet with a single blast of energy, would be able to wipe 
out the United Federation of Planets in short order.
