New ship ? - help needed to indentify it

A bit of a click-bait title, I have to admit.
I did some research on the forums, but didn't find this mentionned.

I was just browsing the crew lounge, and I noticed that the ship in the background on this crew member is strange :

Now there is a possibility that this is not a ship in the background, but then that would be a strange looking structure.
Also, every other crew member that I've seen are posing in front of a ship.



What I'm seeing here :
- a part of cockpit canopy just right of Grace's head.
- a blue thingy that ressembles a Type 9 or Taipan fighter headlight, placed symmetrically on each side of the cockpit. The angle of the blue "headlights" suggest that the "wings" are angled upwards
- on the right, a large blocky thing with some heat vents.
- on the left, some heat vents that ressemble those seen on the blocky thing

The overall impression I have is that it looks like a medium sized Lakon ship.
It kind of looks like a Taipan fighter, but the angle of the headlights are weird, and the wings of the Taipan are thinner.
The general shape of the ship reminded me of this artwork : http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net...2868max.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20141029105631

What do you guys think ?
 
Looks like the side of a Taipan.

It could be a folded configeration to save on space. Most fighters launched from Carriers usually fold in some way to save on space.
