Question about the fleet T6's

In the blog

http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9196503-tier-6-fleet-ships

It mentions the Fleet Long Range Science Vessel [T6]– Pathfinder Class, however the shipyard doesn't specify that it is infact a pathfinder class and it doesn't have the pathfinder costume, is this a bug in the client or is the blog wrong?

Has anyone purchased this ship and can confirm if it is infact the pathfinder

    How many other T6 Long Range Science Vessels are there? ;)

    There is only one, but looking at it in the ship purchase screen it only shows the standard intrepid costumes along with a shiny intrepid unique, it doesn't have the pathfinder costume listed when the blog clearly specifies pathfinder and shows and image of the pathfinder costume

    My guess is that you'll only be able to use the pathfinder costume if you've purchased the pathfinder separately.

    Which is fine, i just dont want to end up buying it to "lose" out on a costume option, if that makes sense

    If your worried why not just get the Pathfinder from the C-Store then you know you're getting a Pathfinder.

    Yah but its a fleet version of a ship with a special c-store costume. You only get the base ship and a new fleet skin, not the bells-a-whistles. :)

    And the blog is just that, a blog. For any discrepancy between it and what's listed in the c-store, go with the c-store.

    Because i actually want fleet level performance :P

    I'll probably be buying it anyway for the console, i was just curious if it was a mixup or just people unable to take proper screenshots for blogs :P

    Probably works out better to buy the C-store version first for the discount on the fleet modules.

    Plus it also then gives you the console and opens that ship up for all fed accounts.

    Only thing I find rather disappointing is that the Fleet Pathfinder is a T5 shipyard when all other Fleet T6's are lower tiers! How can what is essentially an upgraded Voyager needs a better shipyard than an Intel ship which looks to be much more advanced!
    Means I've a got a long wait before I get mine unless I drop out of my fleet to go get one.
