The Vigil-class Corvette was a heavy corvette for escort, reconnaissance, and utility duties of the Galactic Empire
Design
The Vigil-class was very large and powerful for a corvette. Often classified as a frigate, the Vigil class was designed for patrol and escort duty. Three large double turbolaser turrets are installed on the dorsal hull. Seven double light turbolasers with fast track targeting are installed on both the dorsal and ventral hulls. Two tractor beam projectors are used to capture smaller vessels for boarding and capture. A small company of storm troopers provide both security and assault troops for the Vigil.A small hanger on the ventral hull could house sixteen star fighters. Normal deployment was a mixed squadron of recon, light bomber, and Interceptor fighters. A large parabolic dish was used to intercept signals and triangulate enemy positions.
History
The Vigil was designed close to the end of the Clone Wars to work as patrol vessels in the new order navy. Many of these ships went to the Imperial Security Bureau and used as heavy transports for ISB Officers. These ships also served as command vessels for Sector Police and assisted in operations with customs enforcement.
Out Of Character
This design originated as a fanon vessel made by Ansel Hsiao.
