Gunship

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

An Advanced Recon Commando LAAT/i gunship.

The term gunship described a variety of vessels. The term was used for small troop deployment and attack carriers or for small capital ships. The capital ship variety was generally heavily armed for its size and built explicitly for ship-to-ship engagements, while the smaller variety generally combined infantry deployment and close combat support for ground forces.

[edit] Behind the scenes

In various polish translations both gunship and blastboat vessels are called kanonierka (gunboat), thus de facto bringing both LAAT-like ships and GAT-12 Skipray Blastboat (heavy starfighter in fact) into the same class.
