The announcement on the game-wide cross-faction ship unlock is interesting news. How does/will this work for the
Temporal Science Vessel requisition packs? These automatically unpack to a Wells/Verne on a Federation character, and a Korath/Qul'poH for KDF. Same with the Temporal Destroyer. How do you get these to open up as the Federation variant on a KDF character, or the KDF variant on a Fed character?

Cryptic could keep it as it is since there are faction-appropriate ship versions or let it all hang out & let the players decide which of the 3 versions their character would pilot.
I usually tend to like the more options approach myself even if I don't fully utilize an option like that & for this particular scenario I've always liked that Krenn (there's a T6 version now too) ship design over the fed & Rom faction versions.

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to.

I'm hoping it'll just be a cosmetic switch option in the shipyard, allowing us to choose which version of the ship we want, between the fed, kdf, rom versions.
I have my doubts on this one. This is going to be the same as selecting an item out of a loot crate - you are choosing that item; not the others. From Cryptic's perspective, this is a very wise decision, because it will drive people to purchase more of the lockbox items off the market, thereby increasing zen sales overall as players farm the lockboxes for now more-valuable ships.
