MC40a-class Star Cruiser | |
The MC40a is a three engine vessel that features a large hangar bay on its port side. This
was originally a luxury star liner predating the larger MC80 cruisers. It is however more
standardized in design and easier to refit. The MC40a is faster and more maneuverable than
the regular MC80. Unfortunately, the ship is undergunned for its size. While the MC40a is a
competent vessel if used properly, many were poorly deployed in single-ship engagements,
usually against Victory-class Star Destroyers. It has room for two fighter squadrons, but
sometimes only keeps one.Member Availability:
