STRENGTHS

  • Dogfighter - Cabur is a dogfighting corvette able to be nimble, lithe, quick and spin on a turn.

    Minimum Crew. – Able to function with a minimum crew

    Use of Space. with a decent hold for passengers, starfighters, a docking bay and ground vehicles.


WEAKNESSES



  • Forward Facing Weapons – Built like a starfighter, Cabur is vulnerable to attacks to the aft.

    Ships Can't Penetrate Capitol Ships- Although it can run circles around them, the Cabur's weaponry would have trouble penetrating a Capitol Ships shields.

    Average Defense- Cabur isn't made to be a ship of the line in battle. It's best roles are anti starfighter, or trying up a flight formation of corvette's or even doing strafing runs on a frigate, but sustained barrage by similar sized ships will penetrate it's shields.


DESCRIPTION

Commission by the Skirata Brothers, Araanar, Oya, Udesiir and Kane. Using designs put together by all of them. The Elite 'Dogfighting' Corvette. There hope was that it would be a home for them all while still allowing each of them the freedom to come and go. As well as a ship that other Mandalorians would feel welcome. Mandalorian's that aren't blood thirsty barbarians like Neo Crusaders or Death Watch. The ships hull is Beskar reinforced by Durasteel,Durasteel and Qudranium with Transperasteel on the viewing ports. It has room enough for fifty passengers in bunks, a hangar that can fit a full squadron of starfighters.

The shield is average, although the Beskar reinforced hull is able to take a few hits, but the Cabur' true strength comes from it's speed and maneuverability. Although it can go a few rounds with similar sized corvette's or even a frigate for a short time. It's true strength relies on a barrage of armaments while dogfighting other mid sized ships. Although not a bomber it will out perform and do strafing runs to the pilots heart's content or even keep pace with a swarm of starfighters. The Cabur is a starfighter of a heavy corvette, able to speed and maneuver on a turn all the while it's armaments unleash a torrent of fire. The Cabur can comfortably take on two or even three corvettes or a light frigate in a chase atleast long enough to pull away and jump to hyperspace, possibly crippling one or two out in the process.

The brothers were originally going to call the ship Vheh'yaim but after Kashyyk when their own kind committed such an atrocity they gave it the name Cabur the Mandoa words for Protector or Guardian giving it a Black and Gold paint job to mark their conviction. They named the model Vheh'yaim. For future commissions with this production being an Elite 'Dogfighting' Corvette.

Although built for a crew of fifty, the current roster for the Cabur is severely depleted with the four brothers running around the ship seeing to all systems this leads to sub par performance despite the help of a droid brain ai Udesiir helped design. It can be piloted by one.

In battle the closest to full operations is different combinations.



  • Two brothers (Usually Oya and Kane) are on weapon system programs designed on a console screen with one brother taking each side, a third is on ships systems (Usually Udesiir), while the fourth is piloting (Usually Aranar).
  • One brother (Aranar) is piloting the ship, one brother on ships systems (Udesiir) and two (Oya and Kane) are flying their starfighters as escorts.
  • One brother piloting with limited weapons and the ai droid brain, while the other three are in their starfighters.
  • All four brothers in there starfighters, and the ai droid brain commanded to return to a preset coordinates for rendezvous.
While the Cabur is designed for ship to ship combat, it is not a bomber or a siege craft and becomes vulnerable under sustained heavy fire. Although designed to deploy troops either with jet packs or specifically with Speeders and armoured SUV Hovercraft. Those runs if under heavy fire are drop off and rendezvous aiming to get in and out before heavy sustained fire penetrates her defences.

The Cabur's weapon systems are forward facing, meaning it is vulnerable to the aft. It's weapon systems are mostly Turbolasers, Quad Cannons and Heavy Ion Cannons. Meaning It doesn't have a lot of missile tubes. It's weapons systems often aren't a match for capitol ships unless it does several runs like a starfighter would. It is nimble and fast and runs circles around other corvettes and frigates, but anything higher than that in a pitched battle it generally takes the role of anti starfighter with the occasional anti corvette or strafing run on a frigate.

The ai droid brain Kar'tar that runs most of the ship is both sophisticated and basic. It runs a targeting software that uses flight patterns to determine probably flight paths and fires accordingly. The more enemies and opponents however the more variables and it can easily be overwhelmed by a squadron of fighters. Otherwise it's running constant diagnostics to alert the brothers of the state of the ship, incoming ships, transmissions and other anomalies it's scans detects.
