Summary
The Marauder-class corvette was a 195-meter-long light capital ship introduced prior to the Clone Wars.
Marauder-class corvettes were equipped with eight double turbolasers and three tractor beam projectors, and could optionally support four more turbolasers if a larger power generator was installed. They had space for 12 starfighters, and capacity for 80 troops for use in boarding actions or planetary landings. Their very accurate tractor beams allowed them to capture ships with little collateral damage, and they were sometimes paired with ships equipped with gravity well projectors for this purpose. Some Marauder-class ships were equipped with four diamond-boron missile launchers in place of their heavy turbolasers.
Sometimes called a "Pocket cruiser," the Marauder's sublight speed was faster than a Victory I-class Star Destroyer

. Although not powerful enough for engagements against warships such as those used by the Imperial Navy, they were excellent as patrol and interdiction vessels.
There were rumors that there was a much smaller vessel of a similar design, only about 33 meters in length, but it was not confirmed whether it was really the same, but a downsized ship, or it was a completely different vessel, just very similar in appearance.
