Slayer ship

Slayer ships was a type of Yuuzhan Vong vessel used by the Slayers. Developed by Master Shaper Qelah Kwaad, the vessel was the Yuuzhan Vong analog of a heavy assault fighter. The vessels were also larger than the standard coralskipper, and some possessed passenger compartments. In appearances, the Slayer ships had a "tail" at the back, possibly to compliment dovin basal propulsion. Six extensions on each side of the ship were held plasma cannons. The vessels appearance reminded some members of Twin Suns Squadron of an Azurian stingcrawler&mdash;stingcrawler thus became the pilot slang to identify them&mdash;but Twin Suns leader Jaina Solo felt they bore more resembalance to the voxyn, creatures shaped to hunt Jedi. While their design similarity to the voxyn may have been accidental, it is possible that Supreme Overlord Shimrra purposefully gave the Slayers exclusive use of the vessel as an insult to the Jedi, as the Slayers were shaped specifically to fight the Jedi.
