I think discussing anything besides canon ships is a bit far-fetched. I believe I read somewhere that FFG was moving towards canon ships, probably due to requests for more merchandise synergy from Disney. And the only prequel ship we'll see will be the ARC-170. Maaaaaybe the V-Wing, but they were used mainly by the Empire, and they have enough fast ships.

With that in mind, I think we will see a little more from the Rogue One film. But besides that, there are several books and comics, that can provide material for new ships:

The Ark Angel is a beautiful ship, but I'm unsure of it's size. It's seems really big. But I have nothing to compare it with at the moment. The Sentinel class shuttle is definitely too large. It's capacity is almost four times that of a Lambda. Maybe as another epic?

Apparently Incom is very productive. I doubt we'll see it, as it's so similar to the T-70, but the T-85 is the newest X-Wing model. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/T-85_X-wing

The SS-54 has a great design as seen in Clone Wars. But it's featured in Aftermath as well, so it fits with the time window. As Scum ship, that could look like it could carry alot of ordnance. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/SS-54_assault_ship/Canon

The HH-87 Starhopper, also featured in Clone Wars and Aftermath could introduce Hutt cartel elements. It's an ugly ship, but that would fit well with most of the Scum fleet anyway. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/HH-87_Starhopper

I'm sifting trough books and comics to find more mentions of ships, but I can't afford every comic yet and I refuse to read the young adult books, so I¨m not updated on all the canon ships. But keep an eye on the Rebels show. They carry a lot of weight in the game currently, so anything new might be introduced. On that note, I hate the Mining Guild TIE. It's ghastly.
