fig in each side. This ship is really too small for minifigs - microfig
scale maybe, but not minifig. If you want to use it as a mini Corvette then
you're going to have to redesign much of the bridge to open it up, but I'm
not sure how that would affect it structurally. I'd be interested to see
what you come up with.
