I was just as frustrated with my lack of options at Level 30. There were in my opinion only 2 ships that fit my play style; the Pach Raptor and the Scourge Destroyer... and I chose to go with the Scourge. Now, getting close to Level 40, I'm noticing that there really is nothing really available as a comparable upgrade from that Destroy, other then going back to the only Raptor available at Level 40... and that, is likely going to end up being my last Klingon ship for a very long time considering ya don't get another 'freebie' ship at Level 50 and I likely won't be able to but any more C-Store ships for along while yet...
I would love to see a D5 or D6 variant added at some point...
The Pach is a great ship, i flew it deep into lvl 50 range and did STF's in it with aegis gear until the pre S7 gear rush. The Pach didn't kill fast enough for edc farming in the 3 weeks leading up to S7 launch, so upgraded to the Qin. I REALLY hope for a Fleet Pach someday !

I am curious... Why did you chose to keep using the Pach Raptor; a Level 30 T3 ship, instead of grabbing the T4 Qin Raptor?
Even through you did eventually upgrade to the Qin during the weeks leading up to S7's launch, I'm still curious about what, in your opinion made the Pach a better option for you to keep flying it deep into your lvl 50 range before S7?

Believe it or not I felt comfortable in it, it maneuvered well, wasn't underpowered and looked great. The Qin tho an upgrade wasn't a huge improvement and required a couple of BOFF retrains to get it working the way the Pach worked for me.

Weird, I know.
Wierd, yes, but I do understand what you're saying!
I had to do the same when I got the Scourge, had to retrain a couple BOFF's to get things just right...
I am flying now a mirror raptor.I would like to fly something similar to the destroyer offered for LTS
(I was thinking very seriously to buy the LTS only for the destroyer but ... )
Some variants wich would make me happy are :
1.raptor with better turn rate than mirror+battlecloak same consoles no special effects
2.raptor with better turn rate than mirror+10 consoles (5 tactical/xsci/yeng) +usual cloak
3.a new kdf escort (not raptor) with 10 consoles(5 tactical) ,cloak and better turn rate
The 5 tactical consoles variants would make the kdf ship a closer match to fleet tactical escort retrofit wich has 5 tac consoles+cloak .
In meantime i gathered fleet modules+zen and wait to see what will new year bring to kdf

She has heavy firepower and moderate shielding. I think she could be made into something great for the KDF, it's a very unique vessel in the Star Trek universe and could be something made by the Letheans or maybe even the Ferasan.

I always loved this thing. It was a design someone did for a Bridge Commander mod many years ago, but I always loved the lines and how it's like a smaller D-7/K'T'Inga-style. I'm all for a smaller cruiser/destroyer.

Quite curious, can they use these fan designs or not? Wish they'd create a new class of ship; with all these destroyers appearing have a "Destroyer" ship type. This game could also be interesting with Siege Vessels or ships designed with long range weaponry (Make them Strike Cruisers or something) designed to take on fortified positions. Allows them to create new game modes especially ones with objectives (starbase assault mode anyone?)
Taking idea aside of proper Siege vessels. K'Vort could be remade into a "Strike Cruiser" with a battle cloak, armed with powerful long range disruptors that hit for example, at 15km but are ineffective at short range. Just something that can spice up gameplay thats all.
I think we need all existing made into fleet variants first.
And honestly when they do dangle a new KDF ship in front of me it always makes me spend more damn money! Why not just come out with new C-store consoles? Or some crazy skins that can completely change the look of a ship. Might be a cheaper alternative for them.
I don't think there is one KDF ship i don't already have at this point! QQ $$$$
Currently, the designs for escort-sized ships on KDF-side are all, with the exception of the Nausicaan destroyer, Klingon in origin. (Raptors, BoPs, Krenn).

Would make an awesome little strike cruiser.

What Cryptic should consider before releasing anything.
