Strengths:

• Modular Design: Made as a base model that can be set up and designed for better and future models. The space designed gunship can fly around and set up for boarding action with upgraded model (future subs) being able to use the base model

Weaknesses:

• Anti-Interception: Designed to protect the contents in the ship generally troopers from fast moving starfighters that can endanger it when going for boarding action. The weapons on the base model are not able to compete with larger ships and bigger guns making it a slower target once it is outside of the ships hanger
• Blindspots: Most of its weapons are built forward facing and towards the front of the ship relying on its speed and protection from faster ships to cover it as it goes towards the enemy ship

Description: Designed for the more simple purpose of putting troopers into enemy ships. The Saotome Gunship is the second model of the normal gunships but from a later version that was made to function in space. The interior is designed to be a trooper carrier and the weapons made so it can function in space with slightly upscaled normal weapons but it is still lower grade then starships. Straddling that middle ground and made to be customizable for the jedi order and Ranger's to work on it. Saotome's droids are generally able to work with it and pilot it automatically for themselves to protect the others. The interior itself is made to hold up to thirty armed soldiers in general and additional gear for them to board ships. The cockpit and the interior are able to be divided with an airlock so it can be opened and uses a duel support system. Letting damage in one section not endanger the other.

Hangar: 30 Troopers

This is a starfighter, this should be a squadron count. Starfighters do not have hangars.
