The CR90 Corellian Corvette, also known as the Rebel Blockade Runner or simply Blockade Runner, was a smaller (about 150 meters in length), multi-purpose capital ship manufactured by the Corellian Engineering Corporation.
A versatile ship, the CR90 was extensively by the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, as well as private interests, smugglers and pirates. The interior of CR90 featured a modular design to allow for easy reconfiguration of the corvette from one of these function to another. Common configurations included a troop carrier, light escort vessel, cargo transport, or passenger liner. Its ease of modification was a trademark of CEC's and increased the Corvette’s resale value.
The ship was capable of speeds up to 22 MGLT and could carry 600 passengers. The standard crew was made up of 8 officers and 38 enlisted crew, but could range from 30 to 165 total, depending on its configuration. The weapon systems varied, although common configurations included to 6 Taim & Bak H9 dual turbolasers and 4 laser cannons. Under the standard configuration, the Corellian Corvette featured a well-known axial blind spot.
