The Venator-class served as the primary capital ship of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars, earning the nickname 'Jedi Cruiser' due to its frequent use as a command vessel by Jedi Generals. Unlike later Imperial Star Destroyers, the Venator was designed as much for fighter deployment as capital ship combat, capable of carrying up to 420 starfighters. Its massive ventral hangar bay could launch entire wings simultaneously.
