The Credence type was designed by Lee Fitzgerald. The design, which called for "6 nacelles and two primary hulls each with their own bridge section," was originally intended for an earlier episode, but was cut from that script. [1]
The Credence's cargo hold was a redress of the USS Discovery corridor set.
