Going to try and get some of our local types into the game, but, rather than starting with the "Star Fleet Is But Isn't But Is But Isn't" debate, I was planning to shortcut the problem by just sticking with the iconic classes of ship - Constitution-class Heavy Cruiser, D7 Battlecruiser, and (I assume) War Eagle.
Now this comes with possible problems in other games - in B5 ACTA, using only the archetypical ships for some races kind of crippled them (boresight-only capital ship fleets being the prime example). I don't think this should be a problem for Star Fleet, but just wanted to check that I'm not walking into any massively unfair fights for one of the races by using purely these classes due to some scissors-paper-stone match-up of armaments...
