Description: RRDI had never before released a purpose-built civilian market starship before the Esfandia-Class. Named after the micro-space lane purposed by the Mnenchei Royal Navy during its peaceful imperial reign, the Esfandia is a small but agile carrier capable of holding a full flight of starfighters and plenty of extra parts and weapons. Since the design of the corvette is so linear, it is also capable of being modified on the ground for use as an empty-weight cargo freighter, simply replacing the hangar subdividers on the starboard with cargo holds or removing them altogether. A Civilian model is sold to the public, while a Military model is also made for government and paramilitary factions, though an upgrade kit is offered to licensed and legal civilian clients to convert the base model into the Military variant. The step-up military grade model includes a full-round rotary phalanx system for anti-missile and anti-starcraft protection, as well as a large turbolaser battery on the top rear of the ship to protect it from attacks. Unique to the Esfandia is a frontal bridge on the starboard side, though holoreceptors display the ships flanks and give a view from the comm array at the back for a full overview of the body of the ship like a typical bridge. For a meager extra 5,000 galactic credits, a non-reflective coating of choice can be applied from a range of six different factory colors.
