UFP-02, Type-38 shuttle

That is my fan-made recreation of one of the starships seen is the season 3 of Star Trek: Discovery. No it is small one, Type-38 shuttlecraft used by United Federation of Planets in 32nd century.

In servce since at least 3190, this shuttle features hovering parts which is common for 32c ships (2 nacelles and arc-shaped sensor pod) and interior larger than any other known Fed shuttlecraft being close to runabout, which isn't just a shuttle. Shuttle's interior is accessible with transporter or hovering lift. Interior layout is rather odd for Fed shuttlecrafts which now resembles scaled down big ship's bridge with commander's chair at the center, pilot in forward and others seat on port and starboard stations. The shuttle has no weapons (unlike STO version).

Hmm... with such interior layout, can it be assumed that designers took inspiration from next-gen Owl ship from Winx Club season 8? The same size, mostly same interior... Coincidence?

Designation Type-38 comes from additional sources, it wasn't established in official canon unike majority of Federation starship classes. I know, it maybe not as good as in STO or DIS, I just tried to recreate the ship on my own,
