Transforming the COMET light cruiser into the DAEDALUS exploratory cruiser involved many changes to its structure, equipment, and drive system. Changes included simplifying the underlying spaceframe for lower (nonmilitary) stress levels, reducing offensive and defensive weaponry, moving the shuttle craft bay to the rear of the engineering hull, installing a higher-capacity life support system, adding scientific facilities, enhancing the sensor suite and moving it to the engineering hull, increasing the size of the deuterium fuel tanks, reducing the strength and size of the impulse drive, installing additional matter/antimatter (M/AM) containment bottles, and mounting longer-duration nacelles. In addition, the bridge was placed for the first time in its now customary position atop the command hull. Although these changes were extensive, since UESPA and Monarch had started design work on DAEDALUS 6 months before the official decision to proceed with construction, the first unit was delivered for precommissioning trials in a surprising rapid 6 months.
