It's ridiculous! It's like we're a design bureau trying to sell the class to Starfleet! First off, if this is a tactical vessel as said, why the ability to transform into a super-sensor suite?

What if I made a flow chart, showing how the existance of this craft within FE will eventually lead to the ruination of the world economy and the end of human civilisation as we know it? Jokes aside, it's an awful design that only features in BF because in the days before sci fi art and the like, BF used 'orrible cut n' paste imagery and modded shots of the Defiant to represent shuttle classes that Bremer dreamed up whilst playing Doom and they wanted an evolution of that rather than a new and sensible design.

It's a horrible, horrible design and representative of a Bravo Fleet doctrine I thought FE was trying to escape from by limiting such obvious fanboy creations. I mean, just listen to it,

Many improvements include its weapons array, the addition of powerful sensors, enhanced warp and impulse capabilities and powerful shielding and hull plating. The refit also included a mission pod above the superstructure. Only two Pods have been designed. One is a weapons pod with two additional torpedo launchers (one forward, one aft). The other pod has a very advanced sensor and communications suite. It allows the small craft to operate as a scout, mobile communications relay, or as a sensor/communications jammer.

It's ridiculous! It's like we're a design bureau trying to sell the class to Starfleet! First off, if this is a tactical vessel as said, why the ability to transform into a super-sensor suite? Secondly, why does a 10x20x20 weapons pod have only two torpedo launchers? Are the provided BF specs with the weapons pod or the sensor pod? So does it have 3 torpedo launchers or 5? 90 torpedoes or only 60?

This is pure, uncut, raw, smell the hyperbole, Bremer Fleet rubbish. It's beneath us. We're collecting good writers, establishing the group as a serious writing one rather than an excuse to see what what a volley of Quantum-X torpedoes can do to a Borg Cube, and establishing that even though it's the future, Starfleet's not all that more advanced than it was during DS9 (avoiding of course the ablative armour and cloaking devices).
