Characteristics
Edit
The Corellian-class was a large type of vessel, being described with a term used for Imperial Star Destroyer[5] and Star Cruiser-size ships.[6]
History
Edit
- "I've outrun Imperial starships. Not the local bulk cruisers, mind you. I'm talking about the big Corellian ships, now."
- ―Han Solo
Although most famous for their civilian market vessels, the shipyards at Corellia also produced some Imperial warships[3] like the Corellian-class.[7] Han Solo boasted about outrunning these vessels, which were evidently larger and quicker than the bulk cruisers that were part of local Imperial forces in the Arkanis sector.[1]
Behind the scenes
Edit
Although they are among the first capital ships ever mentioned in Star Wars, the "big Corellian ships", aka Corellian-class cruisers, have so far gone undescribed in the Expanded Universe.
