Its history seems rather lacklustre. Why was it adopted? Are the T8 and Type 31 insufficient craft?

Also, I don't see a SP rating or weapons sections that details its capabilities.
 
We are using them in my First Expedionary Fleet as prisoner transports. The previous shuttles did not have a prisoner transport version.
 
Those are on the original version, as a variant the only things that are different are listed.

SP isn't needed on veriants.
 
Maybe I'm just out-of-touch, but torpedo launchers on a shuttle? That seems like an enormous amount of power to put on just a shuttle.
 
They are not tubes, just mount points similar to how the Yuuko and the Plumeria mount torps for a single fire. The Tenba is almost as large as a starship. It was Wes' suggestion.
 
Ah, I was wondering about that. So they're single-shot weapons, not the kind that are reloaded mid-flight.
 
As I see no problems, and no one's pointed out any further issues in the past few days:
