IIRC, I saw an overlay of the top view of 1701-D on the modern Enterprise
aircraft carrier--they were the same length--front of saucer to back of
nacelle is the same length as bow to stern.
1701-D was somewhat wider than the aircraft carrier, though ;)
1701 from TOS, as well as 1701 and 1701-A from first 6 movies is half the
length of 1701-D (again, IIRC)
1701 = 24 decks, 1701-D = 42 decks (all from my dusty recollection)
So there you are.
