  • Speed: Corellian engines made the Correl-class a very quick vessel.
  • Troop Deployment: Its detachable front pod allowed for quick deployment of troops, supplies, or medical treatment to the battlefront.
  • Medical Overflow: With two extensive medical bays it was easily able to pull double duty as a medical ship.
  • Armament: For its size, the Correl-class had a very high armament and could fight off several vessels if supported by fighters or corvettes.

  • Exposed Forward Bridge: Both its primary and secondary bridges were high exposed, with the main bridge tower looming high over the vessel and the secondary bridge being front and center of the vessel's prow.
  • No Fighter Compliment: Without its own fighters it was extremely vulnerable to heavy fighter assaults
  • Weak Armor: With relatively low powered shields and its low maneuverability it wasn't able to fight off multiple enemies at once well.

Using their experience on both the Galleon and the Strident-Class star destroyers constructed jointly with Starbound Industries, Corellian Engineering Coorporation developed the Correl-Class destroyer. Constructed in an era of chaos in the Core Worlds, it was designed to compete directly with Kuat Drive Yard's Donnager-Class Star Destroyers.

Its long and narrow frame was classic Corellian design, taking inspiration from the centuries old Consular-Class cruisers of the Clone Wars. Its three powerful Corellian Engines were more than enough to outpace many capital ships in its class, though it lacked maneuverability. This was rarely an issue however as its impressive thrust to mass ratio coupled with its wide assortment of turbolasers and ion cannons meant most enemy vessels were disabled or destroyed with its powerful broadside attacks before they could force the Correl-Class into unfavorable positions.

Most of the vessels weapons were housed towards the center of the ship's space frame with the small service hangar, crew quarters, barracks, and command deck were all located at the front of the ship. Similarly to the Consular-class of the Clone Wars, the Correl-Class Destroyer utilized a large detachable pod beneath the bridge. While on the Consular-class of old this pod held amenities and a luxury escape pod for dozens of diplomats, the pod on the Correl-Class is geared for war. It was instead designed to be a large deployment and retrieval pod which could hold armor, supplies, and troops for invading or resupplying behind enemy lines. It also held a second extensive medical bay which made these vessels useful as combat medical ships. It was also able to make planetfall, further expanding its mission profile.

Its lack of fighter support however meant that it often needed to be supported by a pocket carrier or corvette to be used efficiently in heavy combat. Its relatively weak shields also meant that if a captain did not defeat his enemies in the opening minutes of an engagement without support, it was likely the vessel would be utterly outclassed if outnumbered.

While it lacked the sensor capabilities of the Donnager-Class Star Destroyer it made up for it in outright damage potential and was cheaper in cost for fledgling governments. It was also high modular allowing for easy customization through the addition of other CEC modules or custom designs. With its customization, invasion pod, extensive medical bays, and powerful weapons compliment, the Correl-class quickly began competing with the Bothan Assault Cruiser in the Corellian navy with many admirals and Councilors preferring the Corellian designed ship for their personal fleets.
