The escape pods in the modified DP35c were also fixed with Corellian transponders. While these increased the crew count in the already strained crew compliment, it provided the Corellian Defense Force with the ability to patch into both the New Republic Holonet systems and the proprietary Corellian Holnet along with both factions' encrypted military communications. With the Corellian modernization act, the newly assembled Corellian Defense Force contracted CEC to produce the DP35c, a variant on the DP-Series that boasted advanced sensors and targeting systems. With an impressive range of weapons, which included turbolasers, concussion missile launchers, and laser cannons, the DP-Series was more aptly named a gunship. This coupled with its limited maneuverability made it something of a glass cannon and a challenge to fly as its role was to fly through enemy formations and take out enemy starfighters and small to medium sized capital ships. These engines helped it keep up with many starfighters in the vacuum of space and helped law enforcement catch smugglers and pirates alike.This unfortunately left the vessel with a subpar shield generator. One-hundred and twenty meters long, much of the vessel's internal space was taken up by its powerful engines and weapons systems.
Its lack of flexibility in mission profile was seen by many as a strength, as its focused design made it an exceptional anti-capital vessel and superb escort gunship.
Unlike its patrol focused cousins, the DP-series had a focus on speed heavy firepower. One of the few purpose built warships by CEC, the DP-Series Corellian Gunship was an escort vessel utilized by a variety of clients.
