@ Xing: Battlecruisers are ships of cruiser class, but a bit bigger and with some Battleship weapons, excluding the BHG BC. IMG Albatross and Liberty Assault Frigate are BC's. They have cruiser shields, 2 Battleship turrets, no Thruster and only 80 impulse speed. Also they have a better powersupply and armour, than cruisers.
Angel, please keep in mind a catamaran/yacht ship (a deep space exploration vehicle) for those of us who want to explore, but dont' necessarily feel like destroying every baddie we encounter.
The spatial just doesn't quite fit me... I need a balanced craft, one that gently sails the solar winds. It may look frail, but the hull and the shields need to be able to sustain it in the toughest parts of Sirius. Gun/turret mounts for some mining, and the occasional defensive posturing, but that's it.
@ Meiun: Keep your suggestion in mind and post it again into the upcoming shiplist thread (don't know when). I think there are a lot more players,which would like to see such a ship in-game and some others.

a hogosha HF, i have no problem with Kusari Ships (especially my chimaera), but come on we hogosha need our own ships
Do the Hogosha have their own shipyard where they actually build their own civie/whatever ships? That would seem to be a prereq to any faction "needing" their own. They don't seem like the kind of organization that would get into ship design/production to me.
