Modified Strike Cruiser Modified Strike Cruisers were Loronar Corporation " Strike " - class medium cruisers modified by the Alliance to Restore the Republic to carry gravity well projectors . History . When the Rebel Alliance built stolen gravity well projectors into Loronar " Strike " - class cruisers , they called the result a " Modified Strike Cruiser " for lack of a better designation . The fuselage of this particular modified version of the " Strike " - class cruiser had been altered to carry gravity well projectors in a pair of bulbous external housings . With these , the ship could be used as an interdictor similar to the Imperial Immobilizer 418 cruiser . The first Modified Strike Cruiser was " Peregrine " , which was refitted by the Rebel Alliance and their Airam allies with gravity well projectors from the captured Interdictor cruiser " Compellor " . At least one other ship , " Sagina " , was built to this design at shipyard " Calenz " in the Nocto system , but it is unknown if it already carried operational gravity well projectors when the shipyard was destroyed . After the Airam campaign , there were no recorded sightings of this class . The Rebellion evidently lost the interest and / or capability to build such ships when their shipyard " Calenz " was destroyed . Instead , they eventually went on to use the CC - 7700 frigate and growing numbers of captured Immobilizer 418 cruisers . Behind the scenes . The exact number of Modified Strike Cruisers constructed by the Rebel Alliance is not known . While the entry in the game ' s ship database calls it a " Unique craft " , at least two existed although it is possible that only one ever reached fully operational status : Only the " Peregrine " was confirmed to mount functional Gravity Well Generators . When the Empire attacked " Calenz " , Imperial recon fighters discovered a Modified Strike Cruiser named " Sagina " within the shipyard , which was operable enough to quickly leave the shipyard and enter Hyperspace to flee . It already had the modified fuselage . Two regular " Strike " - class cruisers , named " AGWS - 03 " and " AGWS - 04 " , were waiting in line behind it at the shipyard . Assuming that " AGWS " stands for " Alliance Gravity Well ( projector ) Ship " , this suggests that " Sagina " was " AGWS - 02 " prior to modification . It is unclear whether " Peregrine " was " AGWS - 01 " , however , because it was modified elsewhere ( in the Mobetta system ) and retained its name . The presence of the other two cruisers also implies that the Rebels did not build Modified Strike Cruisers from scratch at " Calenz " , but instead used the shipyard to modify existing ships in this way . The Rebel Alliance had only captured a single Interdictor Cruiser . Either each Modified Strike Cruiser was to mount only one of the four gravity well projectors stolen from " Compellor " , and therefore only four such ships were planned , or the Rebels had or expected to have some other source for Gravity Well Projectors to install them on further " Strike " - class cruisers that were to be modified in this way . The latter assumption is supported by the fact that Flight Group " AGWS " had two - digit numbers , suggesting more than 9 such ships were planned .
