In the aftermath of the Core-Imperial Confederation’s sudden, and inexplicable collapse, the Republic Engineering Corporation found itself in possession of a priceless artifact. It was a functioning database that possessed the ancient schematics of vessels that were long-forgotten by the Galaxy at large. Every warship and starfighter that ever served the Old Republic were now in the hands of those that had the skills to give their venerable designs new life within the modern era. As more and more code was translated from one database to another, the various design teams within the Shipwright Division began rolling out their newfound designs to the Board of Directors; who ultimately gave them the green light to pursue the various items that were attached to Project: Restoration.
Whilst several design teams found themselves in possession of ancient schematics for the largest vessels within the Old Republic’s navy, there was a team that found itself tasked with re-creating the smaller vessels. The intent was to flesh out a prospective customer’s navy with combat-capable warships that would be able to fit a variety of roles, but within their respective classifications for costing and staffing purposes. Much to the chagrin of Warlord’s across time and space, there was no such thing as a perfect warship. Thus, as it ever was, entire armada’s were populated by warships that filled a multitude of roles - each seeking to cover the weakness of their sister ships.
And so, the REC-AU01 "Prosecutor" - Class Planetary Assault Ship was designed to emulate the successes of the Acclamator, and bring that ancient warship up to the strict, and demanding standards of the modern era.
Thus, the design team set themselves to the task of making the interior of the warship as modular as possible, so that it could swap between two variants that were capable of fulfilling various roles on the battlefield. The first and most notable form of the “Prosecutor” was the dedicated Starfighter carrier - which would act as a capable force projection platform. The other variant would serve as a capable transport and support platform that’d assist their complement of ground forces as they carried out a planetary invasion; by either ferrying them from one warzone to the next or acting as a heavily reinforced orbital command platform.
With the "Prosecutor" entering galactic service, the warship would undoubtedly serve as the foundation of force projection for many flotilla’s and task force’s alike.
