I was thinking (not my best attribute) about another shuttle type. This would be a unique shuttle type, something that would fit an Enterprise F and here is what I came up with:

2 Phaser Cannons
2 Universal BOFFs (1 Ensign and 1 LCDR)
3 Consoles (1 each type)
1 Device Slot
Special Console : +10 to engines and only usable on shuttles

It would serve a hybrid role. It could be a standard warp capable shuttle and a fast attack fighter all rolled into one. It would come as part of the Enterprise F unlock in game and could also be purchased from the store.

I invite discussion about this type of shuttle.

Edit: For now I will call the shuttle the Essex Class Shuttle and based on what has been discussed so far it should look like this: (as more people discuss, I will list other changes so that we can have a running view of what they might consist of)
