    DESCRIPTION AND NOTES
    The Sentry-class Sensor Shuttle has been designed to provide any starship with an instant sensor upgrade in the same way that a number of the recent shuttle-sized fighter designs can provide a boost in firepower. Yet another design based upon the flexible Talon-class Scout Ship, the Sentry-class has a number of alterations that mainly increase sensor capability and warp speed by removing cargo space, weaponry and recreational facilities. The external differences are a slightly bigger cockpit allowing for the side-by-side flight crew, wingtip sensor pods and a large eliptical sensor array mounted above the main hull similar in concept to that on the Nebula-class. In addition to the flight crew, the Sentry-class carries 6 sensor and communications operators who are assisted by an extra computer core. The weaponry has been downgraded to just a pair of small Type VI arrays, both mounted in delta patterns that extend onto the wings. To compensate for the reduced firepower the shields have been upgraded to multi-spectral models and increased by nearly 18% in strength.

    DEVELOPER'S NOTES
    Since we had fighters I thought that we'd better have the Star Trek equivilant of a Hawkeye.

    I must have missed this the first time through. Not a bad idea for the Carrier/Fighter crowd.

    What do people think of the idea of a craft like this one, or a Fighter, being used to get a target lock so that a dedicated command craft such as an Akira Carrier that has a lrge number of topedo tubes can then fire using those locks ?

    Just an idea.

    It might be possible, but if so these shuttles would have a very short life expectancy.

    Sounds like the Talon class is going modular

    Forward fire control is standard practice now. It's a regular tactic for aircraft to launch laser-guided weapons that home on a target designated by a laser in a completely different position. One aircraft can target for another, or an infantryman on the ground can designate a target for an aircraft or ground-based missile launcher. If we can do it now, Starfleet can certainly do it with 24th century technology.
