Capsule: These ships served as starfighter platforms, and were very lightly armed. They lacked heavy guns, and were only armed with 20 anti-starfighter laser cannons for self-defense. The Defender-class assault carrier was equipped with a Class 1 hyperdrive, and had a crew of 4,050.
In addition to its starfighters, the Defender-class assault carrier also held assault shuttles and various personnel transports for its 700 troops.
