Centurion-class Battleship Battlecruiser Name • Tarantula-class Battlecruiser Classification • Ship Origin • Corellian Engineering Corporation Specifications Size • How big is this thing? Give rough estimates in metric measurements (meters) - Height: 130m - Width: 340m - Length: 1600m Appearance • The Centurion-class Battleship is much in the shape of the Raptor-class Corvette, but significantly larger. It is angular, dagger shaped, with a flared rear end, holding 8 engines. Thick armor plating covers much of the exterior, and it is able to close up around the top to contain everything inside. Along the spine, running from the blunt nose to near the recessed bridge contains the living area, with windows facing inside. Behind the bridge are the fighter bays, four of them each containing a squadron of starfighters. A raptor-class corvette can land between all the bays in one made just for them for light repairs and rearming. The last notable feature is its large turbolaser cannons, forward mounted, intended to blow away anything standing in its crosshairs.
