Let me first mention one of my favorite sites:

http://www.homestead.com/star_ranger/starranger.html

and suggest you examine his Sci-Fi crossover battles
which do this already and have the rules all spec'd
out (though I think the Star Trek ships are somewhat
shortchanged in terms of firepower).

Secondly, let me say that the Earthforce Sourcebook
from the Babylon Project roleplaying game (now out
of print but probably available somewhere, maybe on
ebay) specs out B5 ships in Full Thrust terms.

Having said all that, I love these kinds of games
so best of luck putting it all together. I suspect
in general the fighters could be spec'd out with
normal full thrust terms (heavy, attack, fast, etc.)
and the above site will probably help. I use
Federation ships in our full thrust game, though
my designs are made for the standard full thrust
universe not the ST genre (and so they have PDS
systems and different weapon loadouts). I'd be
glad to share these with you if you are interested.
