I would like to pose the question in the subject to the community. Being a klingon at heart, it would be nice to read everyone's input. It could help me decide which ships I would prefer to fly so I can better concentrate my training. I know this is not Star Trek, but everyone has quirks that help them establish their identity in the game. If you have a link to an image of the ship, put that in as well. In your thoughts, consider all ships, not just ones specific to the Empires.
Thanks ya'll

I appreciate your reply. The hurricane certainly looks like a Star Destroyer from Star Wars, I agree. I asked about klingons and Star Trek not Star Wars, though.
take care

My Klingon ride is a Sheriff, I call him Jones.
Apart from that, I am one of those who get puzzled when people try to decide what 'nation' a faction in here is, compared to RL. Trying to put Klingon into EVE just seems a tad extreme. I mean, you can't force your cat to be a dog, if you want a cat you get a cat, not something that barks.

I don't remember asking about nations and factions. All I asked is which ships are the most klingonish. I guess I need to rephrase it to which specific ships. For example, Caracal would be a specific ship that seems klingonish solely by the way it looks. However, I'm not sure if anything else about it is klingonish.

Hmm, interesting. So, specifically, why the missile launcher and not a rocket launcher? Simply for the range I presume.

Actually you did.
People want Gallente to be frogeating french, etc, you know the drill. You want certain ships to have Klingon attributes. If you check my hints, you'll notice that I am wondering why you are seeking Klingon attributes in a non-Klingon game. This is EVE. There's Star Trek games around the corners.
Not to shoo you away or say you don't belong here, but frankly speaking, your stay here would be alot more pleasant if you started to take in 'EVE' instead of seeking Star Trek in a non-Star Trek-environment. I have no intentions to try make you leave the game either, tbh the more the merrier, just doing you a service here.
Plus, Misanth is a *****. He helps people when he feels like it, he flirts with men just because he enjoys doing it, and he *****es with people that start forum threads he finds stupid.
Now, where the hell did I put my Quafe Ultra..

It doesn't LOOK very Klingon - but I gotta say the Pilgrim.

It seems you have an uncanny way of placing your own shortcomings into a discussion. My stay has been quite enjoyable, going well over two years now. I simply felt like discussing klingonish ships et cetera and what I may enjoy flying the most. Try and keep from judging someone when you have no idea. Simply discuss or not.
As far as seeking klingon attributes, I like klingons, simple as that. Regardless of what a person is doing, they have likes and dislikes. It doesn't hurt anything whatsoever. So take Misanth and go powder your nose or something or stop drinking so much Quafe Ultra if it makes you unable to comprehend anything appropriately.

It really depends upon which ship:
The Caracal/Cerberus is reminiscent to the early The bird of Prey,
The Arbitrator/Curse is similar some smaller ships, forget their names, it's especially the front sections that share similarities.
The Stabber/Vagabond is similar to the Raptor, well actually it's seems like a mix of the Stabber and the Caracal.

Here's som opinions for you...
1) Caracal resembles the early BoP ships as shown on ST::Enterprise. It's not a EXACT match, but has that BoP feel about it. Fit it with two guns/three launchers for that BoP feel...or 2 launchers 1 cloak. Fit heavies for that closest to ST torpedoes feel. Also look up the Punisher - it has a BoP aesthetic about it.
2) Battleships, I'd say the Raven is closest to the movie BoPs with it's upraised wongs. The front is even a control pod-on-a-boom that so many Caldari ships seem to favor...the proportions are wrong, but the basic shape is right. Again, fit with two large lasers for that disruptor look, the rest either cruise or torps (though any Raven can have FAR more launchers than any BoP out there).
Those two are the closest IMHO - there's no real bat-wing-with-engine-pod designs out there in EvE, so K'Tinga/Vor'cha really aren't in game. Don't even ask about a Nagh'var... Closest to a Vor'cha may be a Auguror in terms of shape - little else though.
Closer match would be Romulans - all Amarr ships have that bird-beak front end to 'em once you get out of frigates.

The Caracal (and it's T2 derivatives) has a sort of Klingony look to it.

A few ship pictures at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klingon_starships
They all had "wings" and a long neck with a bulbous head, and most were greenish. Nothing really looks like that in EVE. The Punisher might be closest to the shape, Gallente ships are closest to the color, but honestly I think that Minmatar ships are more Klingonlike. Partly it's because of the spikes and the menacing look of their ships. Nothing says "bird of prey" to me quite like the Republic Fleet Firetail. That's my vote.

Unlike the Gallente, I don't recall any of the empires' ingame descriptions saying they are klingon descendants. 
Anyway, to answer OP I would go with dramiel/daredevil and caracal. They all have that forward-swept-wings look. _________________ [IMAGE REMOVED] -- aka Cpt Bogus -- Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

In looks....none of them...sure you get little design similarities but with scale and what have you, they never quite carry. For example the Nyx Mothership looks vaguely similar to the head of the vor'cha class Flagship.... But the iconic klingon ship which epitomises their fighting style, the bird of prey..nothing exists like it in eve... A ship that is cloaked, that relies on surprise, and when the time is right shoots blasters from right up close in daring hit and run operations..nothing quite like that in eve. The stealth bomber is a stand-off platform whilst all close range hit and run ships do not normally fit cloaks.
