Built for the Corellian League, the WAC-901 Cyclone class War Corvette is a low cost per unit, military compromise. The passive EMS sensor array is generally rated as poor, especially for target acquisition and resolution. The weapon is a 50 ton fusion gun bay, limited in range, but devastating versus smaller craft. The partially streamlined, spherical hull is well armored and equipped with scoops and on board fuel purification for gas giant wilderness refueling. The performance is jump 4, with enough fuel for a single jump. The 4 G maneuver drive and 4 agility are considered by many to be substandard. The Model 4 fib computer is the bare minimum for the navigational tasks required. The only advantage are the powerful communication jammers, that are included. The squad of eleven marines has to handle boarding and cargo inspection duties. The twelve low berths can be used for crew replacements and/or extra troops. A 20 ton Launch is used as a utility vehicle and for interface duties. The 24 crew includes: Pilot, Navigator/Commander, 7 Engineers, Medic, 2 Gunners, 1 Flight Crew, and 11 Marines.
