They're vessels but I don't think they'd qualify as ships.
If I ask you to name every ship in the Navy I do not want RHIBs, dinghys, tenders, lifeboats or rafts included, but if I ask for every vessel, then if the Navy owns a kayak I want it listed.

They have weapons, they can travel at warp. They’re just smaller than the big ships.

I can shoot a pistol from a jet-ski and go faster than an aircraft carrier. Is that a ship?

No it’s a boat. A ship is capable of carrying a boat.

You aren’t outrunning an aircraft carrier, those behemoths can outrun most of their escorts if they want

They don’t have sleeping quarters. Being able to house the crew is the bare minimum I expect from something canned a ship.

If they don’t have a place to sleep, multi-day trips they talk about using shuttlecraft for don’t make sense. Clearly there’s a fold-down bunk or something. I mean there doesn’t look like there’s any place for a toilet either, but there’s no way they can be in a shuttlecraft for hours or days and not need one.

Ships launch other craft.

I mean, many are warp capable, so that has to count for something, right?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Exactly!
