so with everyone soon getting ships from the event campaign this year, I'm thinking of getting a Jem'Hadar Vanguard Carrier, and I was wondering what is the largest hanger pet in terms of size of the ship that can be used on the Vanguard Carrier and/or a fight deck carrier (because that's what I'm using right now, and I think would just be fun and silly to have a ship of the same size as a hanger pet, if you can), and what kinds of bridge console and other things you can get to more have a fleet, rather then a single ship

To unlock the ship account-wide, you must get it to Tier 6 Mastery on a Jem Hadar toon before non-Jem Hadar characters on your account can claim and use it (unless that has changed with Vanguard ships). As an alternative, you could go for the Jem Hadar Vanguard Support Carrier. It is not as good, IMO, as the Vanguard Carrier, but it does come with Jem Hadar Frigate pets right out of the box, does not require a Tier 6 unlock on a Jem Hadar toon, and comes with a console that is useful for that and other carriers.

If you are going for the C-store Tier 6 ships unlock anyways, you could just grab both ships.
Below are some of the things I use on my Vanguard Carrier...
I go for numbers of pets as opposed to their size...

As far as hangar pets go. You're going to want Frigate pets if you are going for hangar pet size, or if you decide to go for number of pets... anything that says Squadron. Proportionally, the Breen (Plesh Brek Frigate) and maybe the Fek'Ihri (Fer'Jai Frigate) pets are the largest in proportion to their parent carrier, but they are restricted to Breen and Fek'Ihri ships, respectively, with hangar bays.
Since my build uses Assimilated Plasma beams and the Romulan Hyper-Plasma torpedo, I went with the Elite Scorpion Fighter Squadrons. Don't be afraid to experiment, whatever you decide.
