The MC90 Star Cruiser was a warship class designed by the Mon Calamari for the New Republic. Produced in the Mon Calamari Shipyards, the Sluis Van Shipyards, and the Hast Shipyards, 1 255 meters long MC90 was the first Mon Calamari Star Cruiser designed specifically as a warship. Its focus on heavy weapons and large hangars showed a realistic assessment of the firepower required to challenge Imperial-class Star Destroyers. The MC90 was the most powerful warship built for the New Republic before the Yuuzhan Vong War. Controls and displays onboard the ship were designed, for the first time on a Mon Calamari Cruiser, for compatibility with most major species, allowing for officers other than Mon Calamari to pilot the vessels. The command center was a clear bubble in the center of the ship, giving the bridge officers a vision of the area below as well as above.
