Commando-class Escort Carrier

The Commando-class Escort Carrier was an elite class of Escort Carrier utilized only by the Storm Commando factions of the Galactic Empire and the Astragon Navy.

Characteristics
The Commando-class is 600 meters long, about as big as the typical Harbinger-class Escort Carrier. Despite being labelled as a carrier, it is more of a frontline combat ship. They are shaped roughly like arrowheads, with three sublight thrusters at the stern and a class 1 hyperdrive.

Commando-class ships are heavily armed, carrying two turreted super-heavy turbolaser cannons on its dorsal side, while two dual heavy turbolaser cannons on turrets cover the ventral surface. Two more heavy laser cannons are also located at the tip of the arrowhead-shaped hull.

These ships do carry a decent complement of 24 starfighters, but their true power is the fact that they can manufacture additional fighters to replace battle losses. They are often used with the elite TIE Hunter.
