Bonhomme Richard (TOV-61779) is a heavily-modified Archer-class starship intended to perform surgical strikes, interdictions, and infiltration/extraction of assets as part of the secretive Special Services branch. Captained by Tal Ravis and named after his previous command, the Steamrunner-class attack frigate USS Bonhomme Richard (NCC-61779), she is the second Solas Tempus vessel to bear the name.

General Characteristics

Dimensions: 45 by 22.5 by 9 meters
Crew Capacity: 1 Minimum / 10 Maximum
Power Source: Deuterium Fusion Reactors (3)
Matter / Antimatter Reactor
Propulsion: Impulse Drive
Dimensional Fold Drive
Warp Drive
Jump Point Generator
Cruising Speed: Warp 4.1 / Fold 6.1
Maximum Speed: Warp 7.95 / Fold 9.28, reduced to Warp 7 / Fold 8.5 with external stores
Emergency Speed: Warp 8.51 for 30 Minutes / Fold 9.689 for 12 minutes, reduced to Warp 7.59 / Fold 9 for 10 minutes with external stores

Offensive Systems

4 Type XII Phaser Arrays (2 Fore, 2 Aft)
1 MagLev Autoloader Torpedo Tube (Fore)
1 Torpedo Tube (Aft)
2 External Pylons

The primary armament aboard the Bonhomme Richard is the forward torpedo tube, which has been equipped with a novel octagonal magnetic-levitation autoloading mechanism to allow for either the rapid firing of eight torpedoes or continuous fire at a slower rate. Two crew quarters have been removed from the port side of Deck 2 to accommodate the internal magazine and feeding system, and the two forward torpedo tubes have been consolidated into one. In the event that the system experiences a malfunction or loses power, a manual mechanism for reloading is provided. When operating normally, the autoloader-assisted single-tube launcher is capable of matching the rate of fire of four standard torpedo tubes.

Two additional magazines for mission-peculiar munitions holding up to five specialist torpedoes each are located near the aft torpedo tube, which is typically reserved for this role.

Bonhomme Richard is fitted with four standard Type XII phaser arrays in place of the two phaser emitters, sporting one on top of and underneath the saucer facing forwards, and one on top of and underneath the hull facing aft.

With the cramped nature of the Archer-class exacerbated by the addition of the autoloader, designers added two recessed pylons underneath the saucer, one on each side, for mounting mission-specific equipment. Aside from sensor, jammer, and scientific pods, the pylons can be used to mount weapons, including torpedo launchers, phaser cannons, or up to two ALR-1 Ravis missiles, at a penalty to maximum speed.

-== Modifications ==
+__TOC__
-; Mission Variable Pod Connections : Hardpoints have been added on either side of the primary warp nacelles to allow the ship to carry 2 [[ALR-1 Ravis Missiles]] on the warp pylons.
-: Carrying of mission variable pods is also possible to expand the ship capabilities for sensors, electronic warfare, fuel capacity, or other additional capabilities.
+== General Characteristics ==
-: Maximum speed is reduced to Warp 7 / Fold 8.5 while pods are carried.
+[[File:Defiant bridge.jpg|thumb|Redesigned Archer-class bridge layout]]
-: Emergency speed is reduced to Warp 7.59 / Fold 9 for 10 Minutes while pods are carried.
-; Rapid Photon Torpedo Autoloader : The forward photon torpedo tube has been modified with an 8-Torpedo autoloader, which provides rapid firing of 8 photon torpedoes before the magazine must reload.
+; Dimensions : 45 by 22.5 by 9 meters
-; Increased Photon Capacity : Two of the crew quarters have been removed from the port side of deck 2 to allow for additional photon torpedo warhead storage and maglev feeds to load variable warheads into the autoloader on Deck 1.
