The C70 Charger-class Gunship, Also Known as the Republic Frigate, was a modernized Consular-class Cruiser militarized in preparation for the Clone Wars.

Design
The Chargers were armed with five twin turbolaser cannons, each mounted on the opposing side of the center fuselage and one on the stern behind the sensor and communications array. Additionally, the class had a double laser turret on the top of the bow. The class also had a smaller sensor and communications array than on the peacetime vessels. The fast tracking targeting sensors installed on the weapons allowed targeting of fighters and other smaller craft more accurately. These would later be used on other anti-fighter weapons like the AG-2G Quad Laser Cannon
History
The refitting-procedure was done early in the Clone Wars, when warships were still in short supply. The former diplomatic ships were converted under direct orders from Supreme Chancellor Palpatine.
