Named after the Steamrunner Class attack frigate USS Bonhomme Richard (NCC-61779) was commissioned as a stealth oriented attack scout vessel. With the small size of the Archer Class and a few key modifications, the vessel is designed to fly in under cloak and reveal itself just long enough to launch torpedos before cloaking and warping out.
Modifications
- 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.
- Maximum speed is reduced to Warp 7 / Fold 8.5 while pods are carried.
- 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.
- 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.
- Standard Crew Reduced
- Standard crew is reduced to 6 + AI
