The benefit of this is the joins are kept to a minimum and the majority of the ship is metal rather than plastic. This means the model consists of only four pieces, being the upper and lower hull pieces and two small parts that make up the impulse engines. The design is fairly simple with an angular hull and wings and large engines. As the warp engine is completely shielded – even more so than the Defiant – it is not a distinctly Starfleet design. The design is more reminiscent of a jet-fighter with its large wings, pointed fuselage and large double engines.

The attack fighter is a powerful and highly manoeuvrable two man ship, similar in many respects to a shuttlecraft or runabout, but specialised in warfare.
