	There was considerable financial and conceptual risk in the project, though. Nobody knew how much the new drive system would eat into available space and payload capacity in a vessel whose dimensions had already been fixed to approximate ''Hubble'' values. There was even less idea about how the hopefully increased drive performance would affect the doctrines of runabout operations. Yet it was obvious that priority freight carriers would be the first to call for civilian sales. Star Fleet had nothing against the idea, and arranged for risk mitigation through a deal to produce some 70 hulls for the civilian market concurrently with 40 fleet liaison craft. In [[2247]], the lot fell on three manufacturers: [[VXT Interstellar]], [[Arbing & Lidde]], and [[Thornycroft]].		There was considerable financial and conceptual risk in the project, though.

	The companies would produce three distinct variants of the design. VXT’s version emerged in March [[2248]] with a cargo capacity of 5,000 tons and a large cargo elevator; A&L’s design carried 7,500 tons at reduced endurance; and Thornycroft’s craft was cleared for 3,750 tons, but dedicated to a scouting mission and featuring a range of special sensors and onboard analysis computers, probe deployment chutes, and an advanced navigation suite. Externally the vessels were virtually indistinguishable, with wedgelike hulls that had broad windows for the command deck ahead and a raised stern section for the RMR-500 military-standard antimatter reactor. The two DB-38 solid state nacelles each weighed some 1,500 tons, a heavy price indeed to be paid for the performance increase over spool technology. Out of structural necessity, the engines were slung low to minimize stresses when gravity and integrity systems were idled; landing pads just inboard would ease the		The companies would produce three distinct variants of the design.

			* [[Ship_NCCs#NCC-I6600s\|Ship registry numbers]] have only been assigned for the first series (at this time). As about eleven years are in between the decision to build the first series from the second, it stands to reason, there might be a registry gap.
