Description
Corellian Engineering Corporation converted the diplomatic Consular-class hull into the Charger c70 military configuration. Armor plating, targeting systems, and turreted weapons replaced much of the parent vessel’s diplomatic specialization while its detachable salon pod, long endurance, and high atmospheric speed remained useful for command, escort, reconnaissance, and rapid-response missions.
