Procurator-class Star Battlecruiser

The Procurator-class Star Battlecruiser was part of the Kuat Sector Defense Fleet at the start of the Clone Wars.

A Procurator´s reactor was large enough to be visible from outside the hull, protruding with a ventral bulb, similar to that of the Imperial series of Star Destroyers. The Procurator was only equipped with a limited hyperdrive which prevented it from long distance, transgalactic travel.

Procurator-class ships became part of the Republic Navy, as home fleets were made part of the greater Republic military, due to a centralization effort spearheaded by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.

Trivia
Its name bore several meanings, including "a viceroy; under the Roman Empire, a financial agent or under-governor." This could indicate that the Procurators were used as command ships for smaller fleets.
