The Recusant-class destroyer was a light CIS warship armed with oversized guns, similar to the Munificent-class star frigate, and carried a heavy turbolaser cannon on its prow.Īdditional weapons consisted of four heavy turbolasers, six heavy turbolaser turrets, five turbolaser cannons, thirty dual laser cannons, twelve dual light laser cannons, and sixty point-defense cannons. This gave the Commerce Guilddestroyer a sinister, skeletal appearance. This proved to be a flaw, however, for the droid brain had a lower reaction time, which caused it to run into other ships often. The Recusant-class, like the vast majority of the Confederacy's warships, was largely controlled by automated droid brain technology.
The Recusant-class light destroyer, also known as the Recusant-class support destroyer, commonly referred to as the Commerce Guild destroyer, and additionally known as the Separatist destroyer, were a class of starship used by the CIS Navy during the Clone Wars.
