You could take a page from ds9's handbook of neat tricks and make self replicating mines as a device.
or for even wilder fun disposable weapon beam turrets, use the device and one of the turrets gets kicked out of the rear with a limited duration power supply say 5 minutes.
As for how they could be acquired they could only be accquired from major starbases ds9, esd, k7, sb39.
General white versions would be available in stacks of 5 for a set amount of energy credits.
Green would be available for energy credits and a small number of merits.
Blue rare versions would be available in reduced stacks of 3 for about 5 is daily mission marks.
Purple or very rare version would be available in stacks of 2 for about 7 daily mission marks.
Damage the deployable's would deal would be slightly less than that dealt by a person fully specced in that particular weapons skill firing from 100 weapon power.
As for people worried about the possibility of abuse give them only enough hull hp too withstand a single non crit quantum torp. and about 2-3k shields.
As for models and assests just reuse the models already in game and maybe shrink them a tiny bit.
