NOTES
The Volga Class Runabout was developed in the 2390s (under the code name "Raptor" in
conjunction with scientists on Komali IV) as a replacement for the Danube Class Runabout.  
As such, it plays a similar role in fleet operations, serving as a short-range transport vehicle
(both for people and cargo), and mobile operations base for scientific and covert
operations missions.  To further enhance its functionality in the latter role, many Volga
Class Runabouts are equipped with cloaking devices.  

Other upgrades include new micro-quantum torpedoes and a rudimentary transwarp drive
capable of sustaining warp 11 for approximately six hours.  The Volga can also carry four
full-sized quantum torpedoes if necessary.  The ship can be staffed by up to four people,
though only one is required for basic operation.  

The Volga Class was first commissioned in 2398 during a conflict between the Komali and
the Tholians.
