I predict that Eaglemoss will do a treatment on Archer, along with all the other ships we see in the new series. It is, after all, their bread and butter.
They may get the stats completey wrong though, like they have with the Kelvin fleet and the Cerritos.
Very possibly, yes. It will be all we have to go on unless they start doing officially sanctioned technical manuals like back in the before-times.
Maybe it was named after Henry Archer.So Archer was the founder of the Federation and a president of it at some point, and gets a three-person scout named after him by Starfleet?
The Hermes class looks amazing, but its apparent size makes no sense for a crew of only 3 people. Since it's called the Archer and has such a small crew, I'm mentally replacing the image of the Hermes class with the Archer-class scouts from the Star Trek: Vanguard novels.

The Archer wasn’t given a class name, was it?
Actually, on further reflection (and as @BillJ aptly notes) Starfleet isn't the only part of Archer's legacy, as he was credited with the founding of the Federation and one of it's presidents. So the Federation should be giving him accolades, not Starfleet.Maybe it was named after Henry Archer.
*shrugs* I'm going by what Memory Alpha called it.
Oh I dunno. I don't see how Starfleet commissioning the USS Jonathan Archer is any different from the U.S. Navy commissioning the USS George Washington or the German Navy commissioning the FGS Konrad Adenauer.
It regards to The Archer, the wire mesh image appears to show no sign of a "bridge dome". That mixed with the extremely small crew size, leads me to believe that the opening at at front of the saucer is actually the bridge window. There even appears to be a light source coming from that area. I think this ship is ALOT smaller then we think.
Well, I'm not entirely sure I follow what you're saying here, but suffice it to say that I don't see the issue with Starfleet commissioning a USS Archer or a USS Jonathan Archer alongside the Federation government honoring Archer in other ways.
Okay, but whatever you want to call the canonical, I'm mentally replacing it with the Archer-class from the Vanguard novels.
So small that they only had tranya on board for rations.
Looks like two spikes, typical of Disco deflectors
Ohh I thought they meant the front centre, not the bottom.
Would they have tranya before meeting the First Federation?
