CLASSIFICATION

Affiliation	United Federation of Planets / Starfleet
Class	Type 9 Shuttlecraft
Type	General-Purpose Interstellar Shuttlecraft
Status	Active Service

The Type 9 shuttlecraft is a compact, high-speed Starfleet auxiliary craft intended for routine personnel transport, reconnaissance, short-range exploration and independent missions.

Introduced during the 2370s, the Type 9 combines a relatively small airframe with warp capability, defensive shielding and limited tactical systems. Its size and manoeuvrability make it particularly useful for operations where a larger runabout or specialist craft would be unnecessary.

USS Elysium maintains a dedicated flight of Type 9 shuttlecraft for routine shipboard operations, away-team transport and rapid deployment assignments.
