Description:
The Arquitens-class command cruiser, also known as the Imperial light cruiser, was a multipurpose light cruiser used by the Imperial Navy, in which it filled roles from detached patrol vessel to communications ship to capital ship support. It was manufactured by Kuat Drive Yards for the Imperial Navy, initially entering service as a reworking of the Arquitens-class light cruiser which had served with the Republic Navy. The multipurpose light cruiser design served in a variety on roles, protecting remote Imperial assets, performing detached patrol duties in the Outer Rim Territories, acting as support to larger battle groups, serving as an armed transport, and as a communications ship.
Measuring 230 meters in length, the command cruiser had several subtle updates in its design despite appearing to be a simple repaint of its predecessor; in reality they shared few characteristics besides the basic hull shape—kite-shaped hulls with two forward spars—and the class name. Structural changes included an enclosed horizontal housing on the three powerful main engines, as well as the shape of its bridge tower. The Republic variant's side-mounted turbolaser batteries were removed and replaced with eight escape pods, and lateral entry ways near the bow allowed the deployment of Imperial jumptroopers. The vessels also featured a detention block.
The Arquitens-class was armed with four turbolaser batteries, eight quad laser batteries, four forward-mounted concussion missile launchers and a tractor beam projector. It was protected by deflector shields and equipped with a class 2 hyperdrive with a class 12 backup. The cruiser's small craft launch and recovery systems, positioned between the two spars, could dock either a Sentinel-class landing craft, two TIE/ln space superiority starfighters, TIE/sa bombers, TIE/d "Defender" Multi-Role Starfighters, or three TIE/IN interceptors. It also could carry a hundred passengers within its hull as an armed complement.
