When will our Mirror Universe Ships be upgradable to T5-U and T5-X?

This change is way past due. I want to be able to just buy a ship for a friend to introduce them to STO, and the only affordable options are the crossfaction T5 ships. the Mirror-Universe ships would be more thematically appropriate.

What's the point? They can get a free, but limited choice of a Zen Store T5 ship at level 60.

Also, if they care enough to pay money for the -U token, they could instead buy the Elite Faction Starter Pack instead and get a cheap full T6 ship that's account-unlocked plus other goodies for their main captain. Or spend a bit more and get any other C-Store ship.

The mirror ships look cool, as all the T's are slowly being obsoleted by scaling and 6, they oughtta get bumped up too.

Does having them unlock the skin for the t6 ships of their class?

You can look that up for any ships you care about in the wiki, usually by looking at either the T5 or T6, like these pages for the T6 Nova and T5 Mirror Nova:

Equinox (lists mirror) - https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Equinox_Pilot_Scout_Ship

Mirror (lists Equinox) - https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Mirror_Nova_Science_Vessel_Retrofit

Was meaning as it's pertinent to the conversation. If they don't then they need to be upgradable, if they do then there is a way to fly them T6 so less a worry, then it's just about consoles and stations.
