Similar in design to Type 6 but slightly larger. It requires a piloting crew of two. It is equipped with a personnel transporter to allow short-range transportation. It has slightly enlarged twin warp nacelles compared to the Type 6 which is what gives it an extended travelling range over the Type 6. Its length and weight are otherwise similar to the Type 6, namely 6 meters and about 3.38 metric tonnes. Unlike the Type 6, the Type 8 is permanently equipped with phasers, with Type IV phaser emitters installed. | Similar in design to Type 6 but slightly larger. It requires a piloting crew of two.

The Columbia also carries several Type 9 shuttlecraft. These are more streamlined, having a pointed front and larger warp nacelles. The Type 9 personnel shuttlecraft is commonly known as a Class 2 shuttlecraft: the term Class 2 is a designation for shuttlecraft with small crew cabins and limited amenities, and include the Type 6, 8, and 9 models. | The Columbia also carries several Type 9 shuttlecraft.
