Sydney Class Transport
After some development time, as seen in the forums, the Sydney class is here. This ship was most prominently seen in the TNG episode "Relics", and with a little scotch in the pattern buffer and a lot of engineering talent, kept Scotty alive for the better part of a century in mid-transport. And now, she's available for A2 --Starfleet engineers of bygone eras not included.
Definitely worth a download. 
Sydney Class Starship
_______________________
This is a new ship for Armada 2 called the Sydney Class.
From http://memory-alpha.org:
Sydney-class starships were a type of relatively large personnel transport ship utilized by the Federation during the late 23rd century through as late as 2375. (TNG: "Relics"; DS9: "Chrysalis")
Technical data
The Sydney-class, like many of the contemporary classes of that era, possessed several systems still in use during the 24th century, including its transporter system, its subspace radio, sensors and impulse engines.
According to Geordi La Forge, older model ships, like the USS Jenolan could "run circles around" a Galaxy-class starship at impulse speeds. (TNG: "Relics")

Included in this kit are the Sydney class transport and the USS Jenolan from "Relics" to be used as a "hero ship".
Also are the Milkshape files and I also converted them to 3DS for non-Milkshape users.

You are allowed to retexture, and/or alter the original mesh in any way, which is what makes shared communities so great! It would be nice if you did mention myself in the credits, since this is a very hard model to find and not so easily shared. If you come up with a different version, let me know?
