Specifications - Virginia | NCC-80010-A/03

Summary

Virginia is one of two Type 6 shuttlecraft carried aboard Galileo and is named after Galileo Galilei's oldest daughter. The Type 6 is a old yet proven shuttle design with a highly efficient (albeit aging) warp reactor design. It excels at short-range transportation missions between orbit and planetary surfaces, as well as ship-to-ship ferry operations. It boasts good carrying capacity with the ability to house up to eight personnel and their relevant supplies. Lightly armed with a slow warp cruise speed, its role is best suited for non-combat operations within uncontested space.
