Heavy tactical and science focus. No special gimmicks other than a tactical mode, just pretty good stats. Let's say...
Turn rate 15. Five fore weapons, three aft. Light shielding and hull; this is a glass cannon. Commander tactical, lieutenant commander science, lieutenant tactical, lieutenant and ensign universal? Is that the right number of boff slots? Whatever. You get the idea. Four tactical consoles, three science consoles, three engineering consoles.
So basically, Tholian!Scimitar, minus the thalaron, Deus ex Machina shielding or whatever that even is, and magic cloakshooting. And plus a lot of turnrate, and a nice small size. Let's say maybe twice the size of a Defiant.
Oh and a Tholian science boff (with an environmental shield system, like the ones from TAS). Because Tholians!
It sounds like what you want would weigh in between the Orb Weavers and Mesh Weavers, as opposed to being, say, Recluse-sized (reference image). I've mentioned at least once before that I wouldn't complain about a flyable Tarantula (we have the Bastion, which I understand is of comparable size, given Voth design philosophy), but this thread does remind me that a usable Mesh Weaver (the frigate/escort ship) would not be unwelcome, either.
I want a D5 Tanker/Hangar Conversion...which although a Battle Cruiser would be a "light" Battle Cruiser and thus a Heavy Raptor by STO's standards...thus providing the missing Zen Raptor; that would just happen to be a Heavy Raptor Carrier. Go ahead and laugh....everybody else does. :P
I want the JJverse T5 Connie, just to tick off all the TOS T5 Connie lovers.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though. JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

Based on the number of shuttles it launched, it could be a Fed Flight-Deck Cruiser.
While it wouldn't have the tick off effect of the TOS T5 Connie guys, it would still tick them off that it got in and the Connie didn't - putting it in rather the JJ Connie, would also tick off those folks - would tick off the anti-JJ folks - would tick off the KDF for giving the Feds a FDC - would tick off...lol...yeah, I'm going to go hide now.
1st ... I want them to get rid of the Scimi and her clones as a playable ship, and leave Donatra's and the R.R.W. Lleiset as the only ones ...
2nd ... I want a D'Dex Retrofit as a FULL 2 hangar FLIGHT DECK CARRIER
3rd ... I want a Talvath lookalike ship as a Battlecruiser, with 5 for and 3 aft weaps and 5 Tac consoles (With a BC and Sing core and Sing powers!) To replace the Scimiwhalebarge
4th ... I want a R'Mor lookalike in 'traditional' Rom/Rem skins as a fully functional Science Ship (With a BC and Sing core and Sing powers!)

Do Feds really need more escorts where you're taking their best Sci ship and making it a escort? :P

It's so...ugly, though...
The ship they use when KDF become part of the Federation. And all your escorts will be Kilingon design with more white and blues :P
I would like a Tin Man ship.

Heh, speaking of the JJverse - could you imagine the Borg set on a T5 Kelvin?

it is well known that when Feds try to combine sci with tac their engineers get annoyed and sabotage the warp drive.
