Notes

This shuttlecraft was in service in the original timeline before Admiral Janeway created an alternate version by giving advanced technology to Voyager. Little is known about the design, but it is capable of warp speed and appears to be a short range one or two person interstellar vessel. The craft is fitted both with shields and an ablative armour generator, giving it a formidable defensive capacity.

Admiral Janeway's craft travelled back in time to 2377 and was ultimately captured by the Borg, but since the unimatrix where it was located suffered severe damage due to a neurolytic pathogen, it seems unlikely that much of the information gleaned from the craft remains with the Borg. [3]

Comments

This craft was seen in "Endgame", and we know a reasonable amount about it. It appears to be a modification of the Type 9 shuttle design, but has little in common with that class beyond the cockpit shape.

The fact that it can do at least warp six is established when Janeway uses this speed to flee the initial Klingon attack. It's not clear if the temporal gadget she stole form them allowed her to cross vast distances as well as time; if not, then the shuttle must have had some form of transwarp drive in order to reach Voyager's location before travelling back in time.

The ablative armour generator is the most interesting aspect of the design, but when the Klingons attack Janeway for the second time we see that this craft also has regular shields.

The dimensions are approximate only, and are based on those of the Type 9 shuttle.
