The Predator-Carrier is Kuat Drive Yards newest addition to the galaxy. It is designed solely to transport a plethora of Star Destroyers anywhere in the galaxy, and do it at extreme speeds. One could even consider it teleporting. It has absolutely no weapons, more or less classifying it as a civilian vessel. However, targeting the Predator-Carrier is an extreme waste of time, as the Star Destroyers are completely independent of the vessel and can unlock their docking clamps at any time. The ship was literally built for this duty, as the docking stations take up the majority of its girth, leaving it to do little else but carry Star Destroyers. It doesn't even have room to transport invading parties like troops or vehicles, but it also serves as a mobile station, providing resources, munitions, and a small amount of resources for repairing Star Destroyers. The only problem is it can only transport Kuat Drive Yards produced Star Destroyers.

Under Review.

Before we go any further, with the CSA going minor, is this something you still want to submit or perhaps modify to a smaller size for use by someone else?

As long as this passes as Civilian, I can field it. And I am sure that isn't going to be a simple pass, so let's see what happens.

If you want to affiliate this just with KDY, since KDY is the only group that will be able to own it at this size, we should be good.

The idea of carrying heavy armed warships runs counter to the idea of a civilian ship, as this gives it a significant amount of force projection. As a possible way forward, this could be a star destroyer tender, being capable of repairing, rearming, and refueling star destroyers.

And a civilian Lucrehulk transporting troops and military supplies, and a civilian shipyard producing capital warships, is not militarized? I figured civilian is fielded size, meaning amount of personnel or offensive capability. Militaries take over and produce civilian items all the time.


If this can not be approved as is (including the Affiliation edit that was requested, and any further edits requested that do not reduce its size or remove the carrying ability), you may deny this. I will make one for Victorys and Imperial Frigates. Thank you for your time.
