Thanks to their skeletal structure, they have also been known to be able to shield starfighters within their hulls. Although the vessels have no dedicated hangar facilities, they have a series of docking rings lining each side of the ship.
The warships are armed for heavy combat with oversized guns, a massive twin turbolaser cannon, and two long-range ion cannons for use against capital ships.Ĭomplementing the heavy weaponry are 38 point-defense laser cannons for anti-starfighter firepower, and 26 twin turbolaser cannons and 20 light turbolaser turrets for flexible response. They have four extensive sensor and communications arrays affixed to the center of the hull in a cross-pattern. The Munificent -class is meters in length and has a skeletal look, owing to the fact that these ships require a small crew to operate and were not designed to be carriers.
Following the end of the Clone Wars, many of these ships have ended up in the hands of private organizations, small governments, and pirates.
