Hangar - Class C Shuttlecraft

Class C Shuttlecraft are a type of Hangar Pet for Starfleet characters and their allies, including Federation-aligned Romulan Republic and Dominion characters.

They are obtained and unlocked with the purchase of the following Discovery-era Starfleet vessels:

They can be equipped on any vessel capable of launching hangar pets. Slotted hangar pets will add a launch ability: Launch Class C Shuttlecraft.

Hangar overview
A predecessor to Starfleet's Class F shuttle design, Class C shuttles were used as standard-issue shuttlecraft by Starfleet during the 2250s and remained in service, albeit in a civilian capacity, to at least the 2390s. Their counterpart is the Klingon Empire's own House Mo'Kai fighters. These shuttlecraft feature era-appropriate phaser visuals to match the DSC Starfleet aesthetic. Functionally, they are comparable in performance with their Mirror counterparts apart from one aspect - Class C shuttlecraft are armed with Aceton beams in place of Tractor beams.

One wing of standard-issue (rare) Class C Shuttlecraft come pre-loaded as part of the standard equipment of the following vessels:


 * Buran Command Dreadnought Cruiser and its Fleet variant, the Fleet Cardenas Command Dreadnought Cruiser
 * Earhart Strike Wing Escort and its Fleet variant, the Fleet Engle Strike Wing Escort

Playable version
A playable Small Craft version of this hangar pet, the Federation Shuttlecraft, is available exclusively for DSC Starfleet characters.
