Assault Frigates are a mainstay of the Rebel fleet, the Alliance's
"Assault Frigates" are modified versions of Rendili's
Dreadnaught. All such ships have been altered so that the required crew
and necessary maintenance is substantially reduced. Much of the internal
structure is exposed to space, and fin-mounted engines provide added
maneuverability.
A revised version of Rendili's Dreadnaught-class starship, the assault
frigate was stripped of its outer shell to increase engine capacity and
fuel efficiency. Two dorsal solar fins were also added, increasing
maneuverability and energy production. There were no docking bays on an
assault frigate, but there were 20 retractable docking tubes that could be
extended from the ship's holds. The assault frigate was also equipped with
a great deal of droid and computer-automated systems. Thus, crew
requirements for the assault frigate are just 5,000 beings, down from the
16,000 required on the original Dreadnaught.
