The Buran was built by Ed Miarecki using the AMT/ERTL 1/2500 Enterprise-D saucer and bridge-module and one warpnacelle from the AMT/ERTL 1/1400 Enterprise-D kit. The secondary hull was custom made, and mounted directly behind the saucer. The single warp nacelle was mounted on the bottom of the secondary hull.The model was later modified by Mike Okuda for the scene. He mounted a AMT/ERTL 1/1400 Enterprise-D warp nacelle on top of the secondary hull. The pylon, he used to mount the warp nacelle, was the sail tower of a Typhoon class submarine from a Revell 1/400 model kit.
