Improved Pilot Abilities = New Pilot Ship(s)?

As described HERE. Pilot Abilities are getting some love. I feel like, most of the time, when some aspect of the game gets attention, it is when something new that features that aspect is about to drop into the game. If my observation is correct, what are the odds we'll be seeing new Pilot Ships?

    I believe its 100% guaranteed that the anniversary bundle will have a pilot ship. I hope something similar happens to miracle worker and carriers in the future.

    Hoping the Terran Hestia is not the actual pilot ship in the bundle, it wasn't really known for being fast ship besides time traveling nor intelligence. Personally don't care for pilot ships outside the maneuvers and none of my builds are made for it.

    I personally think the new Hestia should be miracle worker as it is a ship that separates and mw seems to make scene for such a ship, besides it was one of the most advanced ships they had during the Voyager era. We haven't really has a legendary ship in any of the legendary anniversary bundles which was both tactical and miracle worker.

    Didn't they for all intents and purposes confirm that at least 1 upcoming (most likely a bundle) ship is pilot spec, in the 10 Forward stream discussing the pilot changes.

    The original (non terran) is command, intel doesn't fit a vessel with MVAM so pilot is the most likely candidate.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Actually, the Hestia wont be a pilot primary. Definitely not :) I say she will be Command primary with pilot secondary if they keep the dual-spec theme they had with the 12th anniversary bundle.

    I'm desperately hoping it's Command/Pilot spec. (Or MW/Pilot.) It feels the most fitting to what the Prometheus was about.

    I was actually one of the fastest ship at the time.

    And to be honest, if you're going to build a ship that can split into three parts, you probably want high manoeuvrability for them and some special piloting skills.

    So in my opinion, a pilot spec would fit well. I certainly wouldn't find it odd if they gave it that spec.

    Fair enough but I don't think they are planing a legendary version. The hell marry is temp ops.

    They've already revealed a Terran variant for the upcoming anniversary ship pack. Just unsure what it'll have, at this point.
