Corsair battleships, sometimes known simply as corsairs, were ships that served in the navy of the Brotherhood of Darkness during the final stages of the New Sith Wars.
Characteristics[]
Although in other contexts the term battleship denoted large, heavily armored combatants, corsair battleships were relatively fast-moving and maneuverable ships. In this period, it seems that the "battleship" designation described attack/picket ships, which served along with starfighters in a support role for larger warships, such as Sith Destroyers and Dreadnaughts, or the Galactic Republic's Hammerhead-class cruisers.
History[]
Two ships of this class were Rage and Fury, both of which formed part of the Sith fleet that fought in the First Battle of Ruusan in 1002 BBY.
