Design Specifications: The vessel resembles the Old Republic's Acclamator class assault ship. The Anvil design is mostly based on the Acclamator class. The only differences being advanced systems, such as weapons, and the ships hull. The bridge is wider but more broad than that of the Acclamator. Reinforced deployment ramps also act as the lower section of the hull.

History: With the Sovereignty's new campaign of expansion, Imperial strategists wanted something to decrease the time it took to take a world and still maintain control. They developed the Anvil-Class. Researchers trying to find a suitable type of craft came across the old Seinar Acclamator class. It was the perfect base model. The plan was immediatly put on the drawing board and with Sienar already part of the Empire the design was easily upgraded.

Production: Prototype Stage, Planned Testing at Vulvarch.
