Vessel Info
Unlike the similarly built Corellian Corvette, the Gunship is a pure warship designed for only combat - it has minimal room for cargo or troops. Engines consume half of the ship's interior with the rest being dedicated to shields and weapons. The gunship is armed to the teeth with eight double turbolaser cannons, four warhead launchers, and six quad laser turrets. With its fast speed and incredible firepower, Corellian gunships can easily face off against both capital ships and starfighters making it ideal for both assault and escort roles.
History
Small, but deadly, these ships are a key part of the House Fleet. The Corellian gunships Flamewind and Stormwind were obtained following the Vong Incursion. They are both a part of Battlegroup Vigilance.
