- "What type of ships does the Empire have now?"
"It seems they’re pulling up on my control pad as Gozanti-class cruisers." - ―Trench asks a Driver Battle Droid about the Imperial's new cruiser.
The Gozanti-class cruiser also known as the Imperial Freighter is a type of heavy transport used by many independent factions throughout the galaxy. The Galactic Empire uses them against the New Confederacy of Independent Systems Navy forces to deploy TIE/LN starfighters against their Vulture-class starfighters. The New Confederacy later made a their own cruiser to counterpart this.
Characteristics[]
- "Gozanti-class cruisers?! They used to be part of the Confederacy! How could they take them?!"
- ―Lott Dod yells in rage that the evil Galactic Empire took their cruisers.
The Gozanti-class cruiser is a 64-meter long starship that can act as a freighter and cruiser. It sports a twin laser turret in a dorsal mount and a heavy laser cannon on its ventral side. The Gozanti also has a loading elevator on the bottom near the nose. The ships have a hyperdrive and three engines. They also carry up to four TIE/LN starfighters[1] or two All Terrain Scout Transports[2] or All Terrain Defense Pods on underside-mounted docking clamps. Some cases, the AT-STs would be replaced by AT-DPs or even AT-APs.
