Current airships, as well as Damocles focusing on shuttle research, has made the Shadowrunner obsolete and no longer useful in the Fleet, however Damocles has yet to decommission it but only 5 Shadowrunners are built a year currently and they are generally assigned as patrol craft around Damocles shipyards or employed by the Navy in search and rescue operations. Cause of the versatility of the Shadowrunner, this class may never be decommissioned.

Navy Variant: Used by the Damocles Navy and the Coast Guard for search & rescue operations, as well as patrolling of various seaports, this version includes a frontal Grappler (+2 SU) and a Personnel Teleporter (+7 SU). It's speed upratings are removed, and the engines downrated by 1% to allow room for these additions. Today 75% of all Shadowrunners currently in service fall under this variant. It takes 2 weeks to refit a standard Shadowrunner with the specifications of this variant.

Emergency Medical Response (EMR) Variant: This version is employed by Damocles Medical to respond to crisis situations in which medical help is required. It includes a Medical Rating of 5, (+25 SU) with an Mark II Emergency Medical Ultimax (+5 SU) and double the Teleporters of the Navy Variant (+14 SU). Cause of the ship's altered profile, it's crew compliment is increased to 204. It's Crew Quarters are increased to 80 Basic (+8) and the Spartan Quarters are increased from 20 to 100 (+5 SU) and a Galley is installed (+2 SU). To make room for this, the Shadowrunner's Shield Grid is removed entirely and it's engines have the Upratings removed (Bringing the SU count to 484). This variant is able to house it's crew of 204, as well as hold 76 passengers and with the presence of a Galley, the EMR Variant is able to remain on assignments away from Port and remain in an area to render needed medical aid. This ship has been used several times, most recently when the plague hit Verdania as it was the EMR Shadowrunner that ferried the cure developed by Doctor Liridin to the needed parts of Verdania. It takes 9 weeks to refit a standard Shadowrunner with the specifications of this variant.

Bomber/Mine Deployment Variant: Used by the Damocles Military after 698, this variant was used to conduct bombing and mining raids on Shadow Knight held territories and hostile lands. This variant has either 5 Bomb Bays or 5 Mine Bays, placed on the Ventral section (Belly/Bombs) or the Aft section (Rear/Mines) of the ship. (+25 SU) and given a compliment of 100 Bombs/Mines (+5 SU). To make room for this addition, the Speed Upratings are removed, and the Shadowrunner's Speed is Downrated by 22% (New Speed is 117/156/187 MPH). Damocles still fields several of this Variant, which sometimes conducts bombing runs on Shadow Knight held land in packs of six. It takes 5 weeks to refit a standard Shadowrunner with the specifications of this variant.

Freighter Variant: Also used by Damocles to move emergency supplies and gear to ships in the field, this version is given the same Teleporter package as found on the Pegasus class (+26 SU) and it's Shield Grid is removed. The remaining room is then focused into the current cargo capacity (Raising it from 4 SU to 30 SU Cargo) giving the Shadowrunner a cargo capacity of 9 Tons. It takes 8 weeks to refit a standard Shadowrunner with the specifications of this variant.

Charon Variant: Used by Damocles as a launch vehicle for the Justice Bioweapon, this variant was declared it's own class. See the Charon class entry for more information. However it is important to note that the Charon is nothing more than a heavily modified Shadowrunner frame.

Combat Variant: This version of the Shadowrunner, commonly employed at the start of the Verax war to combat Verax fighter craft, is armed with the same frontal compliment of Type 2 Pulse Cannons as the Pegasus (+22 SU) and a forward torpedo launcher (+14 SU) as well as a compliment of 30 Torpedoes (+3 SU). To accommodate the weaponry, the Shadowrunner's Cargo Capacity was removed, as well as the Upratings to it's Speed. It's Cartographic Crystal was swapped for a Class 1, and it's backup removed. It's HRG-04 was swapped out for an HRG-02, the Communications Booster removed and it's Emergency Power Supply replaced with a Type A. While this version was slower than the standard, it was able to be an effective counter to Verax fighter craft as Damocles rushed the Albatross and Wasps into production. This variant didn't last long however, as it was far too expensive to be lost in a combat situation and the Verax quickly overcame the Shadowrunner in battle situations. It takes 6 weeks to refit a standard Shadowrunner with the specifications of this variant.
