The [[Danube Class]] was first commissioned by Starfleet in 2369 for use as a light multipurpose craft in situations that demanded a vessel more powerful than a standard shuttlecraft, but lower profile than a full-sized starship. With this flexibility, a runabout can be utilized as a long-range personnel/cargo transport, an agile mobile defense platform, or high-speed reconnaissance vehicle. | The [[Danube Class]] was first commissioned by Starfleet in 2369 for use as a light multipurpose craft in situations that demanded a vessel more powerful than a standard shuttlecraft, but lower profile than a full-sized starship.

The runabout's highly modular platform allows easy configuration for a multitude of missions. Two such modules are the mission module and sensor pod. For defence, the runabout is armed with phasers and microtorpedoes. The microtorpedo launcher assembly is accessible via a hatch on the floor of the forward cabin. The three runabouts assigned to the Ronin are the ''USS Wye'', the ''USS Murray'' and the ''USS Cedar'', the first named after a [[wp:River Wye|river in Wales]], the second a [[wp:Murray River|river in Austrialia's southeast]] and the third a [[wp:Cedar River (Iowa River)|river in Minnesota and Iowa]]. | The runabout's highly modular platform allows easy configuration for a multitude of missions.
