Some military historians were prepared to argue that a few legendary ships of the ancient galaxy, such as Xim the Despot's Eibon Scimitar and the Bloodshield of Alsakan, should qualify as battlecruisers. Others were comparable in role to the Star Destroyers of the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire, like the Centurion-class and the Scythe-class main battle cruiser employed by the Galactic Alliance Core Fleet. Due to different naming customs and design-capabilities, some vessels bore the designation of "battlecruiser" while serving as frigate-analogs on a galactic scale, like the Kaloth-style battlecruiser and the Hapes-built Nova-class battle cruiser. Informally, the term "battlecruiser" had been used for centuries to refer to any massive, heavily armored battleship designed for the single purpose of destroying other capital ships. 2.9 Procurator-class Star Battlecruiser.2.8 Praetor Mark II-class battlecruiser.It also carries 40 walkers, 10 shuttle classes, and 60 transports.

The bridges are more extended, giving greater visibility for the commanders. However, they are both connected further up reducing the chance of one being completely cut off by a lower shot. With the Dual bridges style of the Original Venator, it can keep going if one is hit. These newer weapons carried over the control and precision of the older ones, while bringing up the power intensity. However, it also has the newer variant 22 DBY-877 Heavy Dual Turbolasers. So in turn the Valiant carriers 12 DBY-676 Heavy Turbolasers and carries over all their affects that worked on the Venator and similar ships. The need for new weapons is always relevant in war, however so is adversity. Therefore, it has been created with a powerful shield generator to protect itself from said ships the shield was able to take constant beating from far larger ships for a longer time than other similar ships.
The Galactic Republic decided to design a ship that could combat these ships while reducing the cost it would potentially take to create.Īs a new ship the Valiant has to compare to Bellator's, Subjagators, Assertors, and any other ship above a Star Destroyer. The Valiant-class Battlecruiser or also known as the Venator Dreadnaught was created to combat the widely used new Dreadnaught classes of the Second Great Galactic War.Īfter long experience of using Venators, and the appearances of Star Destroyers and Dreadnaughts becoming far too frequent.
