Pegasus

The RSI Pegasus-class Escort Carrier is the Empire's premier small carrier, capable of supporting the operations of up to 32 starfighters far from friendly supply. Typically it will accommodate 16 Hornets and 16 Gladiators, but the fighter groups can be tailored as missions demand. In addition to the fighters, there are also two Argo Utility Ships on-board. If needed, two Retaliators can be held in underslung positions.
