General Information
The Talon-class of ships measures just over 24 meters in length and 16 meters across, slightly larger than a standard Starfleet shuttle. Thus, it is small enough to enter a starship's or starbase's shuttlebay, though it can also dock via a ventral docking port. Its aerowing design facilitates atmospheric operations.
The Talon-class Scout includes both impulse and warp engines, with the nacelles encased in the ship's body. The cockpit design utilizes a design similar to the Type-9 shuttlecraft, though it can seat only one. The Talon-class incorporates a miniature version of a long-range sensor dish, making the sensors far more powerful than those of a standard shuttlecraft or runabout. This makes the ship ideal for planetary surveys and scientific investigations. Aft of the cockpit are crew support facilities (including two cabins and a small ward room) and several science stations. Finally, the scout ship possesses formidable offensive and defensive systems - two microtorpedo launchers, four phaser array strips, and a defelctor grid.
Noteworthy Vessels/service records/encounters:
- USS Talon: prototype, assigned to Starbase 315 in the BeTau Sector.
