Design Specifications: The Rhino is designed to be a Deep Space Combat ship, and a Planetery Assault Cruiser. This ships has the classical wedge shape that most Star Destroyers have in the Imperial Navy. However, the Rhino design incorporates some features often seen in early New Republic ships. In order to make room for the large hangar bay, the Rhino was fitted with low powered weapons, but with many more of them, with an example being the Assault Frigate. Also, the weapons are fitted into clusters, such as those seen on the hated Mon Remonda.
