Nova Class Starship

The Nova Class is a light research vessel designed to replace the Oberth Class Starship. The vessel is designed to be light, maneuverable, and able to applied to as many mission roles as possible. The vessel was designed with civilian or science crews in mind, though its configuration can be easily altered to a more militaristic role in a drydock facility. The design team also opted to design the vessel with a high performance auxiliary craft slated for use on planetary survey / scout missions dubbed the Waverider. She also comes with another notable feature, that is the capability to land on a planet surface. The vessel is one of the first Starfleet ships in decades to be equipped for planetary landing.
