The IPV-1 System Patrol Craft, also known as the Imperial patrol vehicle or IPV-1 corvette, was a standard system security and customs vessel commonly used near planets to interdict smugglers and protect against piracy.

==Design==
A ship specifically designed with one role: Patrol. The '''IPV-1 System Patrol Craft''' was originally commissioned to be a cheap affordable alternative to the more expensive [[Corellian Corvette|Corellian Corvettes]] and [[Corellian Gunship|Gunships]]. In order to serve their purpose well, these vessels were armed with four Taim & Bak XV7 turbolasers, as well as a single Krupx VL-4a warhead launch system. The IPV-1 is able to carry a boarding party and still have room to spare. Matching the speed of most modern craft, the IPV-1 continues to be seen throughout the Galaxy and has become a feared sight by both inexperienced as well as experienced smugglers, usually being the end of their career and the start of a long prison sentence. Most smugglers don't even notice the IPV-1 is on their tail because of the strong sensors of the IPV-1, capable of scanning over long distances, the ease of which systems can be patrolled have surpassed the effort it used to take. The effectiveness of this ship is often debated based on the assumption that it may be too specialized. Its greatest strength may just as well be it's undoing, as lacking a hyperdrive renders it relatively immobile and unable to pursue escaping smugglers into hyperspace, it is hard to move because of its size and usually requires the larger ships to carry it around. Because of these reasons they are usually seen employed by larger governments who aren't willing to spend unnecessary amounts of credits on the more expensive counterparts yet still wish to keep a grasp on the illegal activity in their sectors.
