Kelvin Advanced warbird T'laru + Romulan drone ships ?

Hello,
I have read somewhere the T'laru can equip Romulan drone ships if you already own them.
Is that true ?
Can someone confirm please ?

    Romulan Drone Ship: Unlocked with Dreadnought Warbirds (Scimitar, Falchion, Tulwar, Shamshir, Flambard, Khopesh), but it can also be equipped on Kelvin Timeline T'laru Intel Carrier Warbird.

    Yes. T'laru can use the drones. Keep in mind that you still need to own a Scimitar before you're allowed to buy them. Tier and variant doesn't matter. Any will do.

    You are completely correct.

    Yes I have read somewhere you should own a Romulan dreadnought to buy romulan drones but I just wanted a confirmation to be sure...
    Thanks

    I have read those Romulan drones are awesome, don't know if it is true, but they should be better than the advanced kelvin scorpion fighters...


    The T6 warbirds are interesting, I hope they will come on console soon...

    Out of Curiosity, why is the T'laru being given access to Specialty-Frigates from another Ship, when all other's don't. It's always been that Frigates can only be used on the ship they came with.

    I agree completely. I have the Xindi dreadnought carrier with the frigate hanger pets. Why can't I use them on my other carriers? We can with Obelisk Swarmers, and now the drone ships. Why not just make ALL hanger pets usable on ALL ships with hangers. Especially if the drone ships which are FRIGATES are getting the treatment.

    My understanding is you can use frigates within the same race. BOTH Xindi carriers can use both kinds of frigates (if you have access to them). Same principle here.

    Kara is a flight-deck ship (single hangar), the vast majority of which can't use frigates; in fact I think the Scimitar is the sole exception.

    I agreed too, I bought the Cross faction dreadnought pack, and when I received them, I thought : "great I will use the frigates on the Kara, it is a dreadnought", but sadly, no frigate, because it is not a Dreadnought but an Advanced warbird ????... Cryptic should be very careful with the name of their bundle, because usually we should have what we have paid for (Paid for Dreadnought cross faction pack, should receive 3 dreadnought...)...

    Can KDF Kar'Fi use BoP pets? Or can the Vo'Quv use the Fer'Jai?​​

    I wonder if the Kolasi can use them too (We talk of KDF Hangar Bird of Prey).

    I can't check right now, but I'm pretty sure that the ones I mentioned are not interchangeable.​​

    I have the Kolasi, and the T5 Vo'quv with hangar pets Bird of Prey equipped on it, and I can't use the bird of prey with the Kolasi sadly...
    May be because it is not a carrier with 2 hangar bay, or may be because their size...

    Lol. STO has more exceptions than rules when it comes to hangar pets.

    T'Laru can equip Romulan Drone ships if a Scim variant is owned to claim them.
    BoP hangars can only be equipped on Vo'Quv variants, and get a Mirror paint job if launched from Mirror Vo'Quv.
    Fer'jai frigate hangars can only be used on a Kar'fi variant, but S'Kul fighter hangars can be used on any ship with a hangar if that char has a Kar'fi to Claim them.
    Most Lockbox/Lobi/Promotion hangars can only be used on the compatible species craft, but the Jem'Hadar Fighters (not the Bug ships) can be used on any ship with a hangar bay, so long as a Jem'Hadar ship with a Hangar is owned to claim them.
    Most C-Store non-frigate hangars can be used on any other ship, but Stalkers can be used only on Atrox variants.
    Ateleth Xindi ship can equip the Frigate hangar from the Xindi Narcine (note: needs to be the purchased hangar craft, the ones that come on the Narcine are for Narcine only,) even though it has only one hangar bay.

    Not sure about this, someone told me the Jem'hadar dreadnought can use all cross faction Pets... Was he wrong ?

    Fleet and Reputation Cross-Faction (ex. Elite Swarmers from Fleet. Elite Scorpions or Tholian Widows from Reputation.) pets will fit it, but hangars from other lockbox ship should not.

    Contrary, and I've not looked in quite some time I've had a falling out with the Scimmy when T6 hit, The Romulan Drone ships used to say something along the lines of being able to be used with ANY Romulan Dreadnought Warbird, not JUST the Scimitar and respective variants, not sure what they say now though.
