Maquis SIM Project/Arrow

ARROW CLASS RUNABOUT MFS ATHENA Experimental Runabout

With the Maquis spy network growing within the headquarters of Starfleet Command, plans for a new class of Runabout were transmitted to the Terko Nor, MFI's HQ. This experimental class is everything the current class of Danube Class are plus much more. The sleeker, state of the art design borrow elements from the lastest shuttlecraft, Delta Flyer prototype, and traditional Runabouts. Although only one of this craft exists, MFS Athena is undergoing test and shakedowns so that another fleet of multipurpose craft can be developed for the Maquis. This prototpe is classified as an Interceptor as will be the next two of her class. Later classes will incorporate, like her sister Runabout Fleet, specific mission oriented eqipment to support missions for the Maquis. Arrow Class Runabouts utilize the same "modular" construction in regard to interior makeup. They are capatible with the multi-use modules and are much easier than even the conventional Runabouts being that the warp engines and wings feature a "gull" design which swing open for easy access to the interior. The Runabout modules fit neatly inside and lock into place for optimum refit capability.
