Ships Theorycrafting: Odyssey Crew Support Vessel

Provided we don't get new modules and ships from Odyssey, I theorycrafted a bit to create some "odyssey multicrew shuttles"

I came up with a Vulture, small pad, agile, 2 seats, packs a punch and has room for two SRV.
I give you "Frontschwein" ("frontpig"), which coincidentally rhymes with frontline.

Alternatively I finally found a use for the Crusader, having 3 seats.
I put in two SRVs, two advanced missile racks, a flechette launcher and some beam/multicannon combo to fend off NPCs.
Take a look at "Crewsader"

I guess the idea is clear: multicrew and multi SRV support, ground attack capabilities and survivability.

Oh, and sorry I didn't use the Dropship. Maybe someone has an idea for it?

What do you all plan for Odyssey?
 
I'm working on engineering this up today to serve as my ground-pounding settlement bomber for Odyssey's launch. It was going to be a Gunship, but it became a Dropship because... Dropship!
The unengineered FSD is a placeholder for the double-engineered CG FSD; I stick one in every ship with a class 5 FSD slot these days (power and handling permitting) because why not? The empty Class 1 optional is there to accommodate any last-minute must-have-this-module additions Odyssey's release may bring, and will be a Detailed Surface Scanner otherwise. I still haven't decided on experimentals for the mines and missiles, so those are being left incomplete for the time being, and pending further testing after release, the missiles might be stripped off entirely in favor of flechette or flak launchers.
