Are there plans for a transport module of some kind to allow long distance transport of these snub ships by the large ships in the game?

Absolutely. While we're still working things out in terms of ship-transit, we definitely want snub craft to have meaningful presence throughout the universe. From carried on a ship like a Constellation, or setting up a ship like a Crucible, Starliner or an 890 Jump to serve as a Race-team transport, we want to make sure you can bring your ships to the activities you find the most compelling.
