Um yeah the show is set after FO4 so yes there would of been improvements made. Also it is not supposed to be the Prydwen in the show, they just duffed it when using a model from FO4.
it is supposed to be the Prydwen in the show lol. showrunners confirmed it, and they swapped the name for the trailers. that's why everyone is saying it narrows down the canon endings of 4 to the Brotherhood ending or the Minutemen ending.
From a reddit post.... In fallout 4, there is dialogue you can have with Lancer Captain Kells. He tells you “ there were less advanced versions of the airship built on the west coast a long time ago”He also says that unconfirmed historical records say that the copy airships are probably destroyed, but the records are unconfirmedSo it could be possible that this airship is not the Prydwen. But a Brotherhood sister ship built a long time ago.Probably not, but it’s neat to think about.Although, the Prydwen could make it to California from Boston in 9 years if the theory of the Prydwen going 76 mph is correct. Then it would take the Prydwen about 1 day and a half to make it to Los Angeles from bostonBut It would be hard to explain the fact that Elder Maxson isn’t in the show( Maxson is around 20 years old in Fallout 4,Fallout 4 takes place in 2287, the tv show happens in 2296 Since that is only a 9 year difference, elder Maxson would not be that old looking as the brotherhood elder in the show. Maxson would only be about 29 - 30 years old. He could have been killed or ousted from his position since the cannon ending of Fallout 4 is unconfirmed if it is any ending other than the brotherhood ending where the Prydwen is blown up, then the sister ship theory could be true )
its either one going to be revealed as the actual Prydwyn or a sister ship. something to that effect. which unless its revealed that its a rebuild of the Prydwyn from scavenged parts gathered from its remains in the Commonwealth.... then the peace ending of fo4 is the canon ending(bc the sorry state of the BoS in the show pretty much confirms the BoS ending isnt canon)
As to the show runners, I can not find or see any info from them confirming or denying it. Forbes quoted reddit posts and the very unreliable wiki.
That piece of dialogue is referencing fallout tactics and the airships the midwestern brotherhood used to get to chicago, not any other west coast airships. Arthur Maxson not being in the show is a way of the showrunners not confirming if he lived in fallout 4 and lorewise Arthur would probably want to remain in command over on the east coast.
The model in the show isn't the one from the game, it was custom-made for the show - complete with the name written on the side. It's absolutely meant to be the Prydwen.
