General Vessel Information

The Assassin-class corvette, better known as the modified corvette, was a small warship first produced some time before the Battle of Hoth and used primarily by the Imperial Navy. Designed as a more militarized successor to the famous CR90 corvette, the Assassin-class shared the familiar "hammerhead" styling, but it was more streamlined for greater hull strength. In addition to a stronger hull, the Assassin had more resilient shields and heavier firepower. Though it shared a similar 4-3-4 engine layout, it had eight large outer engines and three small inner engines as opposed to the CR90's eleven nearly identical engines.

History

Scylla, originally Malevolent, shares much the same history and operational role as the Hell’s Iris, with the exception of the Imperial middleman. Clan Satal Keto purchased it newly built from a corporate stockyard under the guise of an independent security firm. Before Independence and the appropriation of the cruiser Vengeance it served as the flagship of a much weaker Ketoan fleet. With the annexation of Jusidah it was made part of the planetary defenses of Shintera.

Also a typical Modified Corvette, it is armed with 8 dual turbolaser cannons, 6 quad laser cannons, and 4 missile launchers.
