Dragon class (fighter)

===CLASS DESCRIPTION===
----
The Dragon Class Fighter Variant is based off the Valkyrie shuttle platform and is currently being field tested for its viability as a light support fighter for heavy escorts and Cruiser class starships.
High end weapons, sensors, tractor's, and other high end systems have been sacrificed in order to have a large amount of reserve power available for use by the installed module. At first glance any pilot would likely choose to pilot a type 11 over this new design. The cockpit has a feeling similar to the type 9, while its performance and maneuverability is more inline with an outdated orbital shuttle.
It is Starfleet's hope that the field testing of this new light fighter will yield promising results and allow for a greater range of operations per craft build and in service.
