Archer class

The Archer-class was a type of Federation Starfleet scout vessel in service at least in the 2260s.

Archer-class ships are designed to go "very far, very fast, and not be noticed". They go "to the edge of nowhere and peek behind the curtains".

The ships are small and cramped. Of the crew of 14, only the captain and first officer have their own quarters. The remainder of the crew shares 4 single-bed compartments by "hot bunking". (VAN novel: Harbinger)
