ST-25 Troop Transport
Ship Class: Corvette
Ship Role: Troop Transport
Ship Length: 180 meters
Agility (A): 2
Defensive (D): 4
Offensive (O): 3
Speed (S): 2
Special Gear: 1 (Troop Capacity)
Description:
With the design of the Wrath-class Transport, sorted and put into production, Karnac also requested the creation of another vessel. While the Wrath-class would do well for a singular team, he also needed something that could carry multiple groups in a single trip. However, instead of another new design, the Champion found a pre-existing ship just waiting to be examined and updated in the form of the Imperial Assault Transport of the reconstituted Sith Empire.
Pleased with the vessel's overall appearance, he requested a smaller variation be built. It meant a smaller troop capacity, but it would be enough for his purposes. The new design could carry up to 150 troops or 75 troops and 75 speeder bikes or Uvaks. The main pod could also be detached from the ship in the event of a longer occupation, in which case it housed the necessary equipment to function as a miniature base of operations.
Though some thought was placed into either a cloaking device or another type of stealth fitting, the idea was scrapped as it was a rare occurrence that the ST-25 would operate solo. As such, the armor and shields were dramatically reinforced from the ship's original design to ensure greater survivability, and it was given an updated armament to ensure that the transport would be capable of enduring a heavy firefight over hiding from it. Behind the cockpit rested a dual turbolaser cannon, while two dual turbolaser turrets rested on the slanted wings, granting it some ability to fight against larger capital ships. A pair of quad-laser cannon turrets ran down the dorsal side of the vessel to stave off starfighters. A quad-blaster turret was then mounted under the chin of the cockpit to clear out a landing zone.
