ĭuring the Imperial blockade of the Rebel base on the fourth moon of Yavin, DP20 frigates, alongside larger Rebel warships, were part of an Alliance fleet led by the smuggler Han Solo through the asteroid corridor to defend their supply planet Junction from the Imperial-aligned House of Tagge. įollowing the Rebel Alliance's first victory over the Galactic Empire, the pirate Crimson Jack's crew employed a DP20 frigate to fight off the TIE complement of an Imperial cruiser crippled in that battle, which he then seized for himself. Īpproximately twelve months before the Battle of Yavin, DP20 frigates were among the fleet led by the Rebel flagship Salvation when it fell under attack by the bounty hunter Boba Fett, and for its retaliatory assault on Kamino. At least one of these vessels was wrecked in the Korteen asteroid belt by Quarg's father and his space wreckers. The Rebel Alliance, in need of a small, fast attack vessel, decided to purchase a few of these starships after witnessing a group of pirates use them to hijack an Imperial shipment guarded by several Imperial fighters and bombers. Local Imperial forces also utilized the class. These vessels saw extensive use among the Corellian and Rebel Alliance/ New Republic fleets, although some were also seen in the hands of independent operators, such as pirate factions and other fringe groups. The DP20 was originally designed for the fleet of the Galactic Republic. They were equipped with Class 2 hyperdrives.

Each one carried a crew of 45, along with 46 gunners.

What little room was left was used for deflector shield generators and weapons.Īrmed with eight double turbolaser cannons, four concussion missile tubes, and six quad laser cannons, the Corellian gunship was effective against both larger capital ships and starfighters, though it was primarily used against the latter. Engines consumed nearly half of the gunship's interior space. These small ships were designed to be only two things: fast and deadly.

Unlike its cousin, the CR90 corvette, the gunship had minimal cargo space and almost no space for passengers or troops.
