Nebulon-B class Frigate

These seven engine ships were seen by the Empire as the solution to the rebel and pirate problem. Since the Imperial Navy began assigning these vessels to escort duty, the Rebels found it deadly attacking Imperial convoys. They have have several docking fixtures for light and medium freighters, sophisticated sensors and deep-space, multi-frequency antennas, allowing them to function as long-range scouts or relay battle information to a command ship. Though they are medium sized combat vessels, they have more weaponry then any other combat vessel in their class except the Carrack-class Cruiser. Their contingent of starfighters makes it the superior vessel. Eventually they were phased out in favour of the newer and faster Lancer frigates.
