Per STOWiki

Tier-5

Attack Ship (Bug 1) - Escort
Heavy Escort Carrier
Dreadnought Carrier

Tier-6

Strike Ship (Bug 2) - Escort
Recon Ship (Bug 3) - Escort
Heavy Escort Carrier - T6 Variant
Dreadnought Carrier - T6 Variant

--------------

So you're pretty much correct, with 7 total, but only four at T6. And, additionally, there are really just three ship types (With variants for each).

So there is certainly room for filling a lot of gaps when compared to the other factions. Particularly at lower tiers.

I'd add that, and as I mentioned previously, currently all of the existing ships for the Jem'Hadar are Prize Pack/ Lock Box or Lobi vessels, so none of them are (faction-based) Account-wide unlocks. This means that whatever vanilla ships as well as Premium C-Store ships are made available will be usuable by more than one character (Within the faction).

Which was sort of the point of the original comment. Since the most iconic Jem'Hadar ships are already in-game, I'm curious what they'll do for the rest. Will the Lock Box stuff be no longer "Special", will they just make more variants of what we've seen, or will they just make up a bunch of new designs that faction-players will be stuck with that are not from canon?

I'm just curious how that'll play out, since this will be the first sub-faction to be added with existing premium ships.
