Longprow attack cruiser
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The Longprow attack cruiser was a cruiser used by the Pirates of Iridium in 22 BBY.
[edit] History
The pirates had two in their possession at the time of their demise. The pirates fitted their power gem to the front of the Longprow and used the gem's shield-disrupting abilities to smash through the defenses of unsuspecting ships.
The Republic assault was led by Kit Fisto and the Monitor III, an armed Republic Cruiser. One Longprow was destroyed in the battle, but the second was captured intact.
[edit] Behind the scenes
As its name suggests, the Longprow does have a fairly long prow for a ship of its size. Judging by the size of the starfighters compared to the Longprow, one could assume that the ship was approximately 100-150 meters long.
